Signs of the Apocalypse: George F. Will Calls Out Dick Cheney

On ABC's This Week (Stephanopoulos), they have a discussion of Dick Cheney's speech, where he says that Obama is taking too long to make up his mind.

George F. Will, yes that George F. Will, takes takes Cheney to task:
"A bit of dithering might have been in order before we went into Iraq in pursuit of non-existent weapons of mass destruction," Will said on ABC's "This Week. "For a representative of the Bush administration to accuse someone of taking too much time is missing the point. We have much more to fear in this town from hasty than from slow government action."
When you have lost the guy who drilled Ronald Reagan for his debates with Jimmy Carter while using Carter's stolen briefing books, you've lost everyone.

Start watching at about -11:10. (the timer on the clip counts down, not up)

    Kicking Cheney now is easy - he is so unpopular that you would have to be an idiot to back him up. But note that the warning against "hasty government action" is probably the order of the day for those who are unhappy with the makeup of government. As in "we must not be hasty in regulating CO2 emissions" or "we must not be hasty in reforming the healthcare system".
