Iraq War redux: Dick Cheney warns Fox that nuclear weapons are ‘spreading’ to terrorists
Former Vice President Dick Cheney showed up on Fox News on Wednesday to make a familiar case for going back to war in Iraq: Nuclear weapons are “spreading” to extremists across the globe.
I just saw Showtime's documentary on HBO: The World According To Dick Cheney.
Hopefully, someday, it will be used as evidence convicting Cheney of war crimes.
I'm glad Republicans are cool with an unapologetic Dick being your spokesman on Iraq. Good to know where you guys stand. - LOLGOP
