He also ripped the almost-invisible Dick Cheney a new one. Not to say that Democrats are the only ones ashamed of Cheney's actions over the past six years or so. Republicans, except for a select few, also don't want to be seen with him in public. He's dropped into secretive, invitation-only events in his adopted hometown of Jackson, and he also popped into the right-wing Christian conclave held recently in The Kingdom of Deseret. Other than that, he's keeping a low profile.
Still, Jimmy Carter (a U.S. Navy veteran) had a few choice words about Dick. This excerpt was taken from the Houston Chronicle:
In an interview that aired Wednesday on BBC, Carter ripped Vice President Dick Cheney as "a militant who avoided any service of his own in the military."
Carter went on to say Cheney has been "a disaster for our country. I think he's been overly persuasive on President George Bush."
Cheney spokeswoman Megan Mitchell declined to speak to Carter's allegations. "We're not going to engage in this kind of rhetoric," she said.
No, Cheney would never engage in that kind of rhetoric. He's based his entire career on it, from the Wyoming Legislature to The World Stage.
