"Otherwise I have to declare him a moron, an idiot or a nefarious bastard."
— Former Colin Powell chief of staff Lawrence Wilkerson, in an interview with the AP, on how he might describe Vice President Dick Cheney.
Wilkerson is also accusing Cheney of war crimes. Yes, war crimes.
No need to choose. Cheney could have sincerely believed that Iraq was a breeding ground for terrorists and still been a moron, an idiot, a nefarious bastard, AND a war criminal. He’s mult-faceted, our vice president.
That seems to be a fair description of any politician!!
