Dick Cheney exposed by Jon Stewart
Jon Stewart performs one of the most effective take downs of Dick Cheney. His research team does more for one show than virtually the entire set of talking heads on network TV and cable TV combined.
Jon Stewart goes into the archive and uses Dick Cheney’s own words, lies, and actions against him. Dick Cheney’s claimed on the Hugh Hewitt show that he cannot think of a more terrible burden to leave for the next president. What is that burden, a dysfunctional state of affairs with Iran. Of course the idea of the President’s negotiation with Iran is to cleanup the mess Dick Cheney made.
Worse however, Dick Cheney is making the point as Jon Stewart articulates, that anyone who strengthens the strategic position of Iran is by definition working to weaken the United States of America. “So the formulation would be, whoever strengthens Iran more would be the greater threat to America,” Jon Stewart said. “Using Dick Cheney’s own metric as our baseline, can we uncover a greater threat to America than even Barack Obama?”
Jon Stewart in the most sly and effective manner deconstructs all that Dick Cheney has said and done over the years to find out. Watch the video for that epic deconstruction.
