Dick Cheney thinks Joe Biden is chortle-worthy

Dick Cheney showed up on ABC’s This Week on Sunday morning and didn’t disappoint.

He was asked about Joe Biden’s claim that Iraq would be seen as one of the Obama Administration greatest achievements. Cheney response? The former Vice President just couldn’t help himself. He laughed.

Here’s the transcript:

Jonathan Karl: One thing he (Joe Biden) said is that he thinks Iraq would ultimately prove to be one of the greatest achievements of the Obama Administration.

Dick Cheney: Well (laugh) I guess I shouldn’t be surprised by my friend Joe Biden. I’m glad he now believes Iraq is a success. Of course, Obama and Biden campaigned from one end of the country to another for two years criticizing our Iraq policy. They opposed the surge that was absolutely crucial to our getting to the point where we’re at now with respect to Iraq. For them to try to take credit for what’s happened in Iraq strikes me as a little strange. If they had had their way, if we followed the policies of pursued from the outset or abdicated, Saddam Hussein would still be in power in Baghdad today.

Ahhhh, that wild and crazy Joe Biden. The same guy who once took credit for a speech written by a British politician now takes credit for a war won by a Republican president.

Once a cheat, always a cheat. Or once a moron, always a moron. We’re not sure which.

  • Both cheat and a moron.

    Taking credit for others work and the success of it, is a particular progressive/liberal thing to do. Blaming others when things go bad is also a particular progressive/liberal thing to do. I wonder how much the Press will press Obama into apologizing for the things that went wrong like they did with Bush?
