(CNN) – In blistering new comments Wednesday, former Vice President Dick Cheney says President Obama's reaction to the botched terrorist attack on Christmas Day is proof the president "is trying to pretend we are not at war."
In his first statement since the Christmas Day terror attempt, Cheney hits Obama for what he describes as the president's "low key" response to the events last week, and criticizes the administration's broader approach to national security.
"He seems to think if he gives terrorists the rights of Americans, lets them lawyer up and reads them their Miranda rights, we won’t be at war," Cheney says. "He seems to think if we bring the mastermind of 9/11 to New York, give him a lawyer and trial in civilian court, we won’t be at war. He seems to think if he closes Guantanamo and releases the hard-core al Qaeda trained terrorists still there, we won’t be at war."
Cheney adds that Obama outwardly "pretends we aren't [at war]," and the former vice president repeats his months-long criticism that the new president has made America "less safe."

ouch.... dayum that Cheney hits hard....
He’s shoving his head up his ass hoping that it will all go away by itself.
... awaiting the petulant response from the administration... Dick Cheyney always get’s a rise out of ‘em.
Boom, bang... Liberals’ heads exploding.
Well, I disagree. He’s not pretending we’re not at war he’s trying to win it for his side.
After all that Obama has done to make nice with the Muslim world, why do we continue to face these terror threats?????????? We came out of eight years of darkness, or some such pablum, according to liberals. Now the world loves us, or so we’re told.
Should we ask Abdul-Muttullab (sp?) why he did what he did? Wasn’t he impressed at Obama’s Cairo speech to the Muslim world? Wasn’t he impressed that Obama proudly announced that “we do not torture”?

To paraphrase...”are you safer today, than you were a year ago?”
fighting Dick Cheney on national security is literally bringing a knife to a gun fight...
Everyone is pretending we are not at war except the military who volunteered are actually involved.
The country that is in war follows the path to success. The country declares war by Congress, drafts overwhelming force, put Rosie the Riveter in factories, ration supplies, and use Bonds and taxes to finance it. Most people have ‘better things to do’.
That’s gonna leave a mark.
Cheney will be a can tied to Obama’s tail the rest of the way.
I’m grateful that Cheney is keeping the heat on...where’s the ten thousand other GOP voices?
We don’t need any massive gov’t controlled economy to defeat the jihadis. And we did declare war.

“Abdul-Muttullab (sp?) “
In the terrorist world, he’s known as Abdul-Muckeditup. They use an “M” where we would use an “F.
The new Bureau that bama just created to declassify documents will be used against Cheney.”
God bless Cheney .
Normal, well adjusted children play war, even when we’re at peace. Middle aged liberals play peace, even when we’re at war.
