Just my opinion of Cheney. He may be just what we need, and the war on terror is needed. We have a tough enemy out there. A huge military-industrial complex (making mucho off a war like things used to be) is no way to fight this current enemy. We fight well with huge equipment, air strikes, surge forces, conquer. That kind of war benefits people like Cheney. I have to be suspicious of that, when you look at a war and wonder what are we doing.

The current enemy has all the time in the world. You can lay down fort with as many as you like. They have people who consider themselves to be part of the ammunition, and not a part of the force. That is a dangerous enemy, the one who want to die with you. We are in a tough moment in history with that kind of enemy. Obama does not have a clue, so if he makes the same decision that Cheney would have made then maybe that is good. Someone with some real smarts has got to figure out how to keep us safe. It will be more finese than force this time.
