Liz continues her goofy look at history: "In Cairo, he [Obama] asserted there was some sort of equivalence between American support for the 1953 coup in Iran and the evil that the Iranian mullahs have done in the world since 1979."

Yeah, she actually wrote that: American support for the 1953 coup in Iran. Support? Support???!!! The coup in Iran was jointly owned and wholly operated by the US C.I.A. That overthrow of the democratically elected government of Iran on August 19, 1953, was supported and funded by the British and the U.S. The American operation came to be known as Operation Ajax here in the US.

Surely, our Liz -- the former deputy assistant secretary of state and principal deputy assistant secretary of state for near eastern affairs from 2002-2004 and 2005-2006 -- would know the truth about our overthrow of the Iranian government, wouldn't you think? Maybe not, though. She is a right-wing nut-case and any recent historical truths regarding US intervention on the side of tyranny and repression in so-called third world countries was supposed to be stuffed down the memory hole. Most of it wasn't, Liz. Most of that bloody record still exists, your pappy's efforts to the contrary notwithstanding. A real pisser, right? Hard to rewrite history when the truth just won't go away. Makes all the lying by right-wing freaks like you so goddam difficult.

Is it possible that when Dick Cheney finally dies, his daughter will cease her efforts to hide the lies and the fraud and the blood and the gore splashed across the planet by her sociopathic father? That, on the event of his death, Liz Cheney will revert to whatever mental state one dwells in when one must figure out how to deal with the fact that one's dead father was a war criminal -- and just shut the f*ck up? Is that possible? Is there hope, finally?
