Cheney Rips Obama In Playboy Interview: ‘Worst President Of My Lifetime’
Thank goodness he wasn’t featured in a pictorial.
[su_center_ad]
In a new interview for the April issue of Playboy, Cheney repeatedly tore into Obama on a wide array of issues, including the racially charged riots in Ferguson, Missouri, and foreign policy.
“I look at Barack Obama and I see the worst president of my lifetime, without question,” Cheney told journalist James Rosen. “I used to have significant criticism of Jimmy Carter, but compared to Barack Obama and the damage he is doing to the nation—it’s a tragedy.”
…Cheney said Obama and Attorney General Eric Holder, who are both the first black officials in their respective offices, played “the race card” by suggesting their ethnicity has factored into some of the attacks against them:
I think they’re playing the race card, in my view. Certainly we haven’t given up—nor should we give up—the right to criticize an administration and public officials. To say that we criticize, or that I criticize, Barack Obama or Eric Holder because of race, I just think it’s obviously not true. My view of it is the criticism is merited because of performance—or lack of performance, because of incompetence. It hasn’t got anything to do with race.

Who ‘reads’ Playboy anyway?
Jake March 17th, 2015 at 7:29 pm
Playboy is what used to be referred to as a wank rag – so like Fox news its audience is a bunch of wankers – and Cheney is the biggest wanker of all.
CHOCOL8MILK March 17th, 2015 at 7:35 pm
My thoughts exactly. Additionally, there’s so much better pornographic images/video available (and free) since the advent of the internet. Still…I suppose those who buy Playboy in the 21st century are truly buying it for the articles.
Also, I wonder what Cheney’s right wing friends think of his interview for a “pornography” magazine. You know if it was Obama interviewing with Playboy…the “family values” hypocrites and religious nut jobs in the GOP would be outraged/offended and blowing a lot of hot air on television and certain radio shows.
Hirightnow March 17th, 2015 at 8:14 pm
Well, it would be OK, as Cheney is now a “Statesman”….
(God, I just threw up in my mouth…)
Scooter Livingston March 18th, 2015 at 9:30 am
Didn’t Jerry Fartwell and his ilk blow a gasket when Carter was interviewed back in ’76?

Oh, f*ck you, D*ck.
edit to add…guess word filters here don’t like the former vice president’s name. may have a repeat of comment…

What effin’ race card was played, I have not seen a race card played by this President or his AG. Dumb dh can’t even remember the dipshit he “served” under, that was the worst President ever.
Candide Thirtythree March 17th, 2015 at 7:07 pm

StoneyCurtisll March 17th, 2015 at 7:10 pm
I just noticed that James Rosen, (Fox ‘news’) did the interview…
No wonder all the soft ball and set up questions.
Larry Schmitt March 17th, 2015 at 7:42 pm
Well, you don’t ask tough questions of family.
OldLefty March 17th, 2015 at 7:11 pm
That’s funny, because I think that Cheney was the worst president of MY lifetime.
What a small, petulant, bitter, little man.

“My view of it is the criticism is merited because of performance—or
lack of performance, because of incompetence and his general shiftless and lazy nature” Cheney went on to add,”It hasn’t got anything to
do with race”.
Suzanne McFly March 17th, 2015 at 7:19 pm
Yeah cause “shiftless and lazy” are definitely not whistles to the racists who actually are shiftless and lazy.
Larry Schmitt March 17th, 2015 at 7:44 pm
What he didn’t use the “some of my best friends are black” line? That usually comes right after “it hasn’t got anything to do with race.”
Hirightnow March 17th, 2015 at 7:26 pm
Well, I can only assume that he isn’t counting G.W.Bush, seeing as he was never really in charge…
Herb Sarge Phelps March 17th, 2015 at 7:26 pm
Major vote of approval since Cheney is always wrong.

If only Hefner had a few bunnies around for a citizen’s arrest. Why is this war criminal still allowed out in public?
Suzanne McFly March 17th, 2015 at 7:47 pm
I want someone to kidnap him and dump him off in Iraq, call ISIS and tell them we have a surprise for them and tell them all we want in return is a dull blade.
tiredoftea March 17th, 2015 at 8:09 pm
Tempting, but I want a purely legal arrest, indictment and trial with full disclosure of his, and the entire administration’s crimes during their time in office.
Hirightnow March 17th, 2015 at 8:11 pm
Maybe an offer to come to The Hague and accept a humanitarian award?
tiredoftea March 17th, 2015 at 8:32 pm
There ya go! Or, a Nobel Peace Prize awarded to the entire administration to get them all arrested at once?
Hirightnow March 17th, 2015 at 9:47 pm
SHHHHH!

Okay, fine. We will do it the legal way, won’t be as much fun though.

Right between the ads for $2700.00 watches and the articles about how Hugh Hefner is still sexually active.

I was born in the Johnson administration, and I’m fairly confident that Barack Obama is the BEST President in my lifetime.
Clinton is second; he could conceivably have been first, but his personal shenanigans created too many distractions and too much embarrassment.
Warman1138 March 17th, 2015 at 9:41 pm
A good reason not to bother ”reading” Playboy.
anothertoothpick March 18th, 2015 at 8:42 am
Playboy does great interviews.
We all know what playboy is mostly about: it’s the display of naked women. But, the interviews done by playboy are great and often go unnoticed. I think it’s a great forum for interviews with presidents, politicians, and important people. The interviews are candid, and it’s time to get past the squeamishness.
Warman1138 March 17th, 2015 at 10:05 pm
If you were to look up ”dick” in the dictionary you would find a picture of Cheney holding a shotgun with the caption ” I didn’t turn 90 degree and shoot my friend in the face, it was Obama’s fault”.
William March 17th, 2015 at 11:31 pm
Amen, now here’s the funny part and yes it’s real.

Darth Dick is THE face of evil. His legacy is a tainted path of furthering the elite & MIC while securing multiple deferments. He is a disgrace to all intelligent life forms…. (no wonder the GOP still worships his torrid past!)

frambley1 March 17th, 2015 at 11:43 pm
Two questions for Cheney.
1. Why would anyone care about anything you have to say? (see william’s post below)
2. Which part of your existence can really be considered “life”? Do you count before and/or after you were turned into a mechano-man?
jstsmlbrlcnsrvtvguy March 17th, 2015 at 11:48 pm

playboy was once a noble magazine filled with good advice and deep philosophy – and now it has reached the bottom of the septic tank – all the ladies should get dressed and go home from the old man mamnsion.

Tell us Darth, is it because he’s not a mindless slave to the MIC? Is it because he’s not a warmongering villain? Is it because he tries to be president to the entire country not just the white 1%? Is it because he treats other nations as equals and not American colonies or mortal enemies? Drag your sorry ass back into your undisclosed location and take your daughter/clone with you!
Jimmy Cahill March 18th, 2015 at 8:06 am
I think the American public would disagree. No president has had a lower approval rating than his buddy, good ole Georgie Boy:

There should be an investigation about how Cheney jumped to the front of the line to get two heart transplants when there were so many others waiting ahead of him. Was there someone in Mexico who was murdered to supply the new heart? These questions need to be answered.

It is patently unfair that a perfectly innocent heart should be sentenced to life inside a rectum.
Besides I’m sure there were no younger and more deserving people waiting on that transplant list to get the heart courtesy of…
Government funded medical care.

How ironic that he was played a big role in the great depression and it is Obama who is restoring the economy back to before the Bush/Chaney took us into the longest war in American history with no money to pay for it except our youths future. Speaking of worst, Chaney, guess what you have won that prize and you are at the top of the list. Not only for the Americans who have lost their lives and a normal future for those injured, but also the collateral damage of 500,000 Iraqi’s who would not benefit one way or the other as to who won the war. 500,000 men, women and children.
