Cheney Warns of Iran As a Nuclear Threat:
"'Given the fact that Iran has a stated policy that their objective is the destruction of Israel, the Israelis might well decide to act first, and let the rest of the world worry about cleaning up the diplomatic mess afterwards,' Cheney said. In 1981, Israel sent warplanes to destroy Iraq's nuclear reactor.
'We don't want a war in the Middle East, if we can avoid it,' he said. "

Military-Industrial Complex Speech, Dwight D. Eisenhower, 1961:
"We must never let the weight of this combination endanger our liberties or democratic processes. We should take nothing for granted. Only an alert and knowledgeable citizenry can compel the proper meshing of the huge industrial and military machinery of defense with our peaceful methods and goals, so that security and liberty may prosper together. "

Cheney: Social Security Plan to Cost Trillions (washingtonpost.com)
Appearing on "Fox News Sunday," Cheney said the government would have to borrow $754 billion over the next 10 years, and conceded that the price tag would involve borrowing trillions of dollars more in subsequent decades.
"That's right. Trillions more after that," Cheney said in response to a question.
----
what the hell? shouldn't we be reducing our future debts rather than increasing them? borrowing trillions on top of trillions is poor policy.

The Australian: Unqualified medics 'did amputations' [February 07, 2005]:
"Citing a statement obtained by the American Civil Liberties Union, Time reported that an Army medic based at Abu Ghraib spoke of examining 800 to 900 detainees daily as they were admitted. If he worked a 12-hour day, that gave him less than one minute for each exam."
