Rep. Meeks: Cheney Should 'Take Care Of His Health And Just Keep His Mouth Shut'

TOM KLUDT – JUNE 19, 2014, 12:27 PM EDT

Rep. Gregory Meeks (D-NY) has heard just about enough from Dick Cheney these days.

During a fiery interview Thursday on MSNBC, Meeks couldn't hide his anger toward the former vice president, who has re-emerged in recent days to condemn the Obama administration for its handling of Iraq.

The New York congressman said he doesn't view the deteriorating security situation in Iraq as an "imminent danger" to the U.S. and he blasted Cheney for "irresponsible decisions" during the vice president's time in office.

"How dare he come and raise his ugly head at this time. I'm sorry. I'm upset about that," Meeks told anchor Tamron Hall.
