Dick Cheney visits Capitol for Jan. 6, criticizes GOP leadership
By Rebecca Beitsch - 01/06/22 01:20 PM EST

Former Vice President Dick Cheney accompanied his daughter Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.) to the Capitol for events marking anniversary of the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol, and expressed disappointment with GOP leadership.

“It's not a leadership that resembles any of the folks I knew when I was here for 10 years,” Dick Cheney told reporters after exiting the House floor following a moment of silence in recognition of Jan. 6.

Cheney, who served for a decade as a House lawmaker fro Wyoming, echoed many of the comments previously made by his daughter regarding the Republican Party.

“I’m deeply disappointed we don’t have better leadership in the Republican party to restore the Constitution,” he told ABC News earlier Thursday.

The elder Chenery came to the Capitol alongside his daughter, saying she’s “doing a hell of a job. I’m here to support her,” as well as to mark the day.

The same not-so-straight-shooting Dick "Haliburton" Cheney that misled the country to start another war - that supposedly would pay for itself - with Iraq in 2002/2003?  That same Dick?

Oh, now, this tyrant, who circumvented the it in 2002/2003 to start a war of foreign adventure without a Declaration of War from Congress, is worried about the Constitution.

The old-guard RINOs are all coming out to get revenge by - they hope - sticking knives in the backs of Trump and the current GOP leadership.

It's a bizarro-world version of the night of the long knives.

That quote suggest to me it's more of a disappointment with McCarthy and McConnell than with Donald Trump.   :shrug:
For unvaccinated, we are looking at a winter of severe illness and death — if you’re unvaccinated — for themselves, their families, and the hospitals they’ll soon overwhelm. Sloe Joe Biteme 12/16
I will NOT comply.

Sounds like he wants to have Christmas with her next year.   :shrug:

I didn't much like him as VP, and swore Bush re-naming him as VP was drop-dead stupid.  It guaranteed the next President would be a two-term Rat.

He let 9/11 happen on his watch, they had nine months to stop it.

It makes sense when one remembers Cheney is pro-war --- any war.
