AUDIO: Liz Cheney: Democrats "Uncomfortable" With Killing al-Qaeda (MUST LISTEN!)

Liz Cheney says Democrats are "uncomfortable" with capturing and killing al-Qaeda.

LIZ CHENEY: "Well, in my view, you know, I think they don't understand that it's a war. And you know, they sort of, some of them have started to adopt the language of acknowledging it's a war because they understand the American people know it's a war. But fundamentally, deep down, I think they really are uncomfortable with the notion that we have to capture and kill al-Qaida, that we have to get information, that we can't win the war without intelligence, that if you just ask terrorists nicely and read them the Miranda rights they're not going to give you intelligence. They're uncomfortable with those notions, they'd rather treat this as law enforcement, they'd rather run these guys through the American court system and so I think this is in part an effort to discredit all of those programs that were very effective precisely because they did recognize that we were at war. But I think, you know, we've been down this path before and the American people have an awful lot of common sense about this: they know it's a war. And I do think the Democrats are entering very dangerous territory here of reminding everybody once again why the Republicans do a better job of defending the nation."

Imagine if this was the mindset when we were fighting WW2.

“I can’t wait to see Liz Cheney as Sarah Palin’s running mate.”

D*mn, beat me to it.

This would scare the Obama out of the dim-bulb-crats.

Translation: They are unwilling to protect this nation from foreign/domestic threats.

She’s a very smart lady. And, she sounds so much like her mother (another very smart lady), that it’s uncanny.

Despite countering arguments, given the current actions taken by this current POTUS, this current administration is literally begging for another 911-type attack on/in the U.S. And to think that Dems, Libs, Barry-loving moronic idiots, and the Liberal Media continue to put forth that it is the Repubs that are longing for such to happen. Somewhere in an alleged 'cave' in BFE, Bin Laden and company are laughing their collective arses off...

With her father as an advisor, we can sleep well at night.
