Mr. Cheney you were right! (by S. B.)


Dick Cheney is truly a prophet.  In the Thursday, March 24 2011 edition of the New York Times Online, columnist Nicholas D. Kristof recounts how when Libyans discovered a U.S. airman hiding in a sheep pen after ejecting from his F-15 before it crashed, they greeted him with hugs and thanked him and the U.S. for aiding them in their fight for freedom.  (Here is the link: http://www.nytimes.com/2011/03/24/opinion/24kristof.html?_r=1&ref=opinion.)


This is exactly what Vice President Cheney predicted, that we would be greeted as liberators.  While he was wrong about the country, the dictator, the time, and the American president leading the mission--those are minor details.  What is important is that VP Cheney was right. 

Of course he's right--and if you don't think so, then Al-Qaeda wins.
