I still wonder why he did not run for potus against the activist. He would have whipped the floor with his skinny behind. The powers that be must have had a hand in it.

I agree with you 100%!!

I do think that his health wasn't very good for a while. He struggled with heart problems
He's from Nebraska. Maybe that state just wasn't large enough to put forth a POTUS.

From the Internet: New book by former vice president and his cardiologist chronicles his decades of health problems, resulting in a heart transplant last year.

In a short sentence, why would they? We’re a psychotic friend, changing moods even few years.

[Dr. Pritchett]

I’m sure our allies trust us as much as the Iraqis that backed us in Desert Storm trust us. We left them in the lurch due to our own internal idiocy and they were massacred for it.

Obama is president because of the failures of Bush/Cheney

[WilliamIII]

Cheney is part of the problem. One half of the disastrous Bush/Cheney team that brought us the biggest deficits ever until that time, and biggest economic downfall since the Depression. He has his billions. Can’t he just go away?

[HANG THE EXPENSE]

Cheney has said in the second term he disagreed with bush on almost every matter of state.But I must agree with you that I don’t think he is as conservative as we here at FR.

[Leaning Right]

Lots of truth in that. But there is even more. The Middle East is in turmoil because of the failures of Bush/Cheney. FDR beat both Germany and Japan in less than four years. We are still fighting in Afghanistan after ten years! And Iraq is slowly slipping away.

That's all on Bush/Cheney. Bush meant well, but he was a terrible war president. And Cheney, he just likes to talk tough and pretend that he is a cowboy.

[WilliamIII]

Bush was bad in the first term too. Ever hear of Medicare expansion and Bush/Kennedy education “reform”?

And, frankly, how’s that Iraq invasion working out for you?

Cheney was right there next to Bush on all these “triumphs”

[Netz]

All of America's allies are now scrambling to form new, sub-alliances to replace the American vacuum against the enormous Iranian-Russian threats to the region. I have to laugh-cry when I hear Obama say, “A options are on the table”. It is pathetic that tiny Israel will have to deal with Iran, alone. Carter lost Iran and in the great DemocRAT tradition, Obama lost the entire Middle East.

[Venturer]

Only partially.

The whole thing cannot be laid at Bush-Cheney’s feet.

Much of the blame goes to the GOP and bad choices to run against Obama, also the race issue, so many were so anxious to see the First Black President.

I hope they have now had a good look.

[HANG THE EXPENSE]

I agree, bush was anything but conservative.

[no-to-illegals]

My agreement is with the headline. No more!
