You just can’t make this stuff up.
Liz Cheney should look to leave Congress and find another line of work. The Daily Mail reported:
House Republican conference chair Rep. Liz Cheney blasted ‘shameful’ questioning of the patriotism of a key impeachment witness who served in Iraq and testified Tuesday after getting undermined by prominent conservatives.
Cheney, a Wyoming Republican and the daughter of former Vice President Dick Cheney, issued her public admonition hours after high-profile conservative commentators sought to discredit new impeachment witness Col. Alexander Vindman before his testimony – with a former top Bush administration comparing him to a spy.
‘I also want to say a word about something else that’s been going on over the last couple of hours, and last night, which I think is also shameful, and that is questioning the patriotism, questioning the dedication to country, of people like Mr. Vindman – Lieutenant Colonel Vindman, who will be coming today – and others who have testified,’ Cheney said at a House leadership press conference.
Mitt Romney, R-Utah called the slams on Vindman ‘absurd, disgusting and way off the mark’. ‘This is a decorated American soldier and he should be given the respect that his service to our country demands,’ he said.
