Dick Cheney: Obama Leaving A ‘Terrible Burden’ For Next President With Iran Deal
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2015/04/08/dick-cheney-president_n_7024596.htmlFormer Vice President Dick Cheney took another swipe at President Barack Obama on Tuesday, criticizing him over the Iran deal framework put in place last week.
Cheney, who accused Iran of having “one of the most radical regimes in history” and being “sworn to destroy Israel,” told radio host Hugh Hewitt the deal will be a “burden” on the next occupant of the White House.
“This is a totally radical regime that is the premiere sponsor of state terrorism in the world, and Obama’s about to give them nuclear weapons,” Cheney said. “It’s, I can’t think of a more terrible burden to leave the next president than what Obama is creating here.”...
“If you had somebody as president who wanted to take America down, who wanted to fundamentally weaken our position in the world and reduce our capacity to influence events, turn our back on our allies and encourage our adversaries, it would look exactly like what Barack Obama’s doing,” Cheney said.
