Just now, on CNN, former Homeland Security Secretary Tom Ridge said Cheney is full of shit.
Speaking to the charges Cheney leveled yesterday that the Obama Administration is making the country less safe, Ridge called bullshit.
This is from a Republican, a highly decorated Viet Nam vet, who Cheney personally recruited to serve at DHS, telling Dick, to "GO FUCK YOURSELF".
BAM!!!
I just love watching the Dinosaurs shive each other. Pull up a chair. Popcorn for everyone. Watch with glee as Powell and Ridge each take a shank to Cheney’s gut.
And to think, only 24 hours ago a few Kossacks were actually intimidated by Cheney’s grunting. For the life of me, I don't know why. The punk has no cred: not only does the public recoil when they see him, but his fellow cabinet members fall all over themselves to OPENLY denounce his views.
Have a wonderful and safe Holiday weekend, Kossacks!

TRANSCRIPT:
CNN: Now former Vice President Dick Cheney is called on the carpet by Amercia’s first Homeland Security Secretary, Tom Ridge.
CNN: You had the intelligence. You served in a very sensitive position in those days after 9/11. Do you believe we're less safe today because of steps taken by President Obama?
Ridge: I do not.
CNN: You disagree with Dick Cheney?
Ridge: I disagree with Dick Cheney, but I also disagree with approach both men are taking.
John King - CNN: This is a big shot at Cheney.
John, that is Dick Cheney's central argument, yes, he's saying keep Gitmo open, closing that is a mistake. Yes, he's saying the harsh interrogation tactics worked and President Obama should not have abandoned them, but at the root Dick Cheney is saying the decisions made by this President make Americans less safe, but here's a man that Cheney recruited to join the Bush administration who was there at the beginning right after 9/11, helping to come up with the homeland security front in that administration who said he is wrong – Dick Cheney is wrong.
John Roberts: Does this take some of the ammunition out of Cheney's arguments?
Gloria Borger(long time GOP apologist): Sure, I think it does. I mean this is a former Homeland Security Secretary.
