15 of the 19 hijackers on 9/11 were Saudi Arabian. None were from Iraq, Iran, or Afghanistan.

I honestly don't get how he lived this long. It was so obvious that he and Bush lied us into the war in Iraq. If my son or daughter was killed over there or massively injured, I would have made it my mission to kill the guys who lied and profited off of it. I'm not advocating for that, it just seems a logical consequence of those actions.

Somewhere between half a million people and 5 million people died as a consequence of that lie and the invasion. Cheney is a piece of shit and there is a lake of blood that this guy is responsible for. I only wish there was a hell for him to go to.

Cheney may be gone, and good riddance, but the cauldron of hate and greed that he helped to create still governs America.
