Seven years later, Dick Cheney's exaggerations and untruths are still circulating, many of them unchallenged, as the impetus for war against Iraq. However, as the political leader of the screaming right's opposition to President Obama's agenda, particularly on national security, Cheney remains an outspoken supporter of the torture that brought us the misleading intelligence meant to convince the world that Saddam Hussein's regime was a threat to global security. Like a hound dog protectively gnawing a grizzled bone, Cheney refuses to let go of his delusions. Unfortunately, his delusions led to thousands of American and Iraqi deaths. When will he be brought to account?
