Robert Scheer, a veteran, has a few words to say about Dick Cheney. "It is thus Cheney who has played right into al-Qaida's plans, heightening tension between the U.S. and the Arab and Muslim worlds by evoking an image of U.S. imperial conquest of Mideast oil resources. His palpable disdain for civil liberties, bald-faced lies and support for torture have even tarnished the reputation of democracy itself, which has to please tyrants and theocrats everywhere." http://www.huffingtonpost.com/robert-scheer/his-own-worst-enemy_b_43394.html
