Jon Stewart Tears Into ‘America’s Tragedy Herpe’ Dick Cheney over Iraq

Jon Stewart took on the latest news from Iraq and had some tough words in particular for “America’s tragedy herpe.” Yes, Stewart called out Dick Cheney for having the temerity to criticize President Obama on just how bad Iraq’s gotten.

Stewart mocked the former vice president and his “Sith apprentice” daughter for acting like the U.S. was just mere seconds away from total victory in Iraq when Obama just ruined the whole thing. And Stewart pointed out it was actually the Bush administration that negotiated the withdrawal of forces, which Cheney bragged about on TV.

And so Stewart was absolutely floored by how Fox News’ Megyn Kelly actually called Cheney out to his face. Stewart said maybe now Cheney will get how it feels when “someone you thought was a friend shoots you in the face.”
