Even Chris Wallace Has Had Enough of Dick Cheney's Horse-Shit



Fox News' Chris Wallace, after listening to former vice-president Dick Cheney's criticism on Obama's Iran Deal this morning, pointed out that Cheney had eight years to deal with Iran’s nuclear program and didn't do dick:
“You and President Bush, the Bush-Cheney administration, dealt with Iran for eight years, and I think it was fair to say that there was never any real, serious military threat,” Wallace noted. “Iran went from zero known centrifuges in operation to more than 5,000. So in fairness, didn’t you leave — the Bush-Cheney administration — leave President Obama with a mess?” the Fox News host asked.

“I don’t think of it that way,” Cheney replied. “There was military action that had an impact on the Iranians, it was when we took down Saddam Hussein. There was a period of time when they stopped their program because they were scared that what we did to Saddam, we were going to do to them next.”

“But the centrifuges went from zero to 5,000,” Wallace pressed.

“Well, they may have well have gone but that happened on Obama’s watch, not on our watch,” Cheney wrongly insisted.

No, no, no,” Wallace fired back. “By 2009, they were at 5,000.”

Right,” Cheney grumbled.
"Right." That might be the first time I've heard the Asshole Cheney admit a mistake.
