>> if there's one thing this country does not need, it's that we should be taking advice from dick cheney on wars. >> simply stated, there is no doubt that saddam hussein now has weapons of mass destruction. >> not only were there no doubt, there were no weapons. >> we had a lot of evidence to indicate that in fact al qaeda was trying to get their hands on weapons of mass destruction. >> being on the wrong side of dick cheney is to be on the right side of history. >> simply stated -- >> you think the obama administration wanted out of there and to hell with it? >> exactly. >> good to have you with us tonight. thanks for watching. there is no doubt that this man, dick cheney, loves to go fishing. he's fishing right now oh, he's trawling bill time for those millenniums, the younger generation, 20 somethings that ten years ago might not have been paying a whole lot of attention to the lies being thrown on the american people. tonight we begin with this guy, dick cheney. former vice president of the united states and there certainly is no doubt that if anyone deserves any kind of blame whatsoever for the war in iraq, it's this guy. cheney was without a doubt involved in the campaign of deception that led us to war in 2003. his push for war costs over 4,000 american troops lost. that's what it cost us. and to this day, cheney thinks it was the right thing to do. since we invaded iraq in 2003, the country has been an absolute mess. it was a mess before u.s. troops left the country. now that things have gotten even worse, cheney is doing a little monday morning quarterbacking and running his mouth again which of course he does a pretty good job at. here we go with an op-ed in the wall street journal, cheney trying to pin this mess on president obama. >> mr. obama had only negotiated an agreement to leave behind residual american forces, training intelligence capabilities to help secure the peace. instead, he abandoned iraq and we're watching american defeat snatched from the jaws of victory. >> not bad, huh? it was the bush administration who negotiated the terms of withdrawal from iraq. this picture shows george w. bush and maliki on the shake, on the deal with maliki in 2008. president obama trialed to negotiate a stay behind force with the iraqis but of course they refused because this man, right here would not give immunity to american soldiers, god forbid if they get caught in a cross fire and iraqi civilian gets killed and could bring american soldiers up on trial through iraqi courts. if your kid was in iraq, would you want that to have happen if he or she were serving in uniform? hell no and what about the contractors? >> dick cheney is deceiving the american people with remarks in the wall street journal. next let's look at cheney's idea of victory. this chart right here shows iraqi civilian deaths since 2008. thousands of civilians were killed each year when the united states was in iraq. if dick cheney thinks this is victory and what it looks like, he's got a very strange definition of winning. next cheney called president obama willfully blind. >> the president is willfully blind to the impact of his policies, despite the threat to america unfolding across the middle east. aided by his abandonment of iraq, he is announced he intends to follow the same policy in afghanistan. >> now, don't you remember when bush and cheney were going at it and some of the liberals were out there saying, no, this is the wrong thing to do? >> we were told that we were emboldening the enemy. we were told we were being disloyal to the united states. what are the conservatives doing if they go by their own playbook? president obama is far from blind on foreign policy. look at the record. the president campaigned and ran on getting us out of iraq and afrg. and basically he has a spectacular record on living up to what he said he was going to do on foreign policy, said if the pakistanis were not willing or unable he would go in and get osama bin laden in pakistan and that's exactly what happened. gadhafi is not around to give commentary in libya now. he just captured the suspect in the benghazi attack and of course the conservatives think that's a big cover-up now. the president of the united states took troops out of iraq. he's winding down the war in afghanistan. this man is doing exactly what he campaigned on. he didn't come up with any obama doctrine of preemptive strikes if we don't like what's going on in somebody else's country. didn't start another war in syria or inject american troops into a civil war or get involved in a conflict in the ukraine. but we've got this testosterone fight going on worldwide between putty and president obama. who cares. president obama ran on ending american bloodshed overseas and that's what the american people want and by the way, who's paying for it? he had a vision to protect american lives. he is following through on the promise and he's keep being america safe. someone should remind dick cheney and it's interesting how president bush has been silent on all of this, maybe he knows better. someone should remind this man, we got hit on your watch. where were you august 6th, 2001 when the presidential daily briefings were being tossed around down in crawford texas, cheney were you anywhere around? you're supposed to be the expert. he wrote this ridiculous line in his op-ed. >> rarely has a u.s. president been so wrong about so much at the expense of so many. >> trying to sound like winston churchill, that ain't going to cut it. let's look at that one one more time. rarely has a u.s. president been so wrong about so much at the expense of so many. really? you've got to be kidding me. wrong? i'll show you what wrong is. >> we've learned that iraq has trained al qaeda members in bomb making and poisons and deadly gases. >> iraq has made several attempts to buy high strength aluminum tubes used to enrich reuranium. >> we've been preventing him through acquiring through this particular channel the kinds of tubes necessary to build a senry fuj. >> simply stated there is no doubt that saddam hussein knnow has weapons o of mass destruction to use against our friends and allies and against us. >> mr. cheney, can you tell us was any of that true? any of it? cheney was wrong and his lies were at the expense of many americans. over 4,000 americans killed and well over 100,000 iraqi civilians lost their lives. how is that for being wrong at the expense of many? democrats are correct to make sure that the american people don't have history revisionism taking place in front of them. don't let the american people forget how wrong cheney was on foreign policy. >> if there's one thing this country does not need, it's that we should be taking advice from dick cheney on wars. >> being on the wrong side of dick cheney is to be on the right side of history. >> amen to that. >> what could possibly be the motivation for dick cheney to come out and say that what they did was right and what president obama is doing now is wrong. what would be his motivation? this experiment in democracy, well, it didn't work. maybe the iraqi people had been just under a dictator too long. the purple thumbs were kind of neat but in the end it didn't hold up. the iraqi people don't seem to be able to defend themselves or have the will to defend themselves. how do you instill that heart and desire for democracy if you've never known it culturally? we forgot to ask that question. you know what they want, the project for new american century, that fraternity is still around, what they want is occupation. they don't want democracy. all they care about is turf and making sure they got their mits on the oil and making sure the american committee will run on energy the way they want it to run on and all of this talk on counter terrorism, is totally wrong. we've got to get in there with troochs on the ground. they were on the senate floor today saying the same thing. i refuse, do the story every single night. i refuse to allow some americans out there to be hood winked by these people who lied us into war and trying to make the case we oulgt to be doing the same damned thing again. it's nuts. there are 20-somethings out there ten years who weren't paying a lot of attention to lies out in the media and now the sell job is back on again. we have an obligation to make sure that the people that got it wrong don't have the platform and when they spout out about it, they are corrected. this president deserves the benefit of the doubt. it was the right call in libya. it was the right call in egypt. it was the right call in syria. we have not been hit in counter terrorism measures working to protect this country. and the fact is that their way didn't work. president obama's way is working. but i wonder if they really support him. i wonder if they are demanding support for the president the way they demanded support for bush. remember the criticism on bush, well, that's emboldening the enemy and endangering our troops in the field. what are these conservatives doing now with the way they are treating this president? president obama is going to be gone from office in a few years and it's going to be somebody else. who knows. is it going to be counter terrorism? or is it going to be new technology to stop terrorism or is it going to be another invasion? we have an obligation to make sure that we don't fight the next war the way we fought the last one. get your cell phones out, i want to know what you think. tonight's question, has anyone ever been more wrong on national security than richard b. cheney, text a for yes and b for no. leave a comment at our blog. you can get my podcast at wegoted.com. we'll bring the results of the poll later on. let me bring in jan schakowsky of illinois. good to have you with us. >> thank you, ed. >> your response to this constant drum beat that seems to be taking place on the right by the conservatives who say we need a replay. >> the only words i ever want to hear again from dick cheney and all of those neocons is an apology. that's what i want to hear. for getting us into the most consequential and far reaching foreign policy debacle perhaps in the history of this country. but, ed, i want you to know there's good news in a poll that was taken that most people support the obama approach rather than the chain in approach, only 20% of americans believe that we should have left our troops in iraq and 67% of americans think it's because this historic battle that's been going on, sectarian battle, but also the iraq war that exacerbated everything and made it worse and as you said, was based on really two lies, that saddam hussein had anything to do with al qaeda and two, that there were weapons of mass destruction. two things we heard over and over again. >> congresswoman, iraq belonged to the leadership of maliki and wanted us out. correct me if i'm wrong, he came to washington and told members of congress, you signed it, you're getting out. president obama was saying, wait a minute, let's make sure we will do this right and could not come up to a forces agreement because of the immunity to protect american soldiers in a conflict. is that right or is it wrong? it seems like the conservatives are leaving that out. >> that is absolutely correct. barack obama was negotiating with maliki sean let's remember, there's a lot of bad guys in iraq and maliki is a problem that we have right now. it was really a problem started under george bush and dick cheney when they absolutely decimated the who hornets nest and opened up sectarian violence in iraq. they got rid of all of the sunnis and any power that they had. and maliki now wants to continue that and nomt have a unity government and certainly did not want the united states of america to be there, plain and simple. >> congresswoman, finally i know the congressional leaders met with the president this afternoon to talk about the situation in iraq. are the congressional members supporting the president and his move to put 300 troops over there, which really is a move for protection in case we have to totally exit out of there. the support on capitol hill, characterize it. >> i can't characterize it yet until we have a caucus and talk about what the options are. but as i said, i think the american people and the democrats want to see what the president is saying and to do the sensible thing and -- the kinds of options that dick cheney would have us do would be putting us back into iraq, making more troops in afghanistan and creating more dead americans and iraqis and afghans as well. >> congresswoman jan schakowsky. i appreciate your time tonight. thanks so much. >> let me bring in democratic strategy bob shrum. good to have you on. how is this going to play out and maybe affect the mid terms? if the american people are against any kind of future intervention in iraq to correct what's going on over there, how can republicans go home and not be asked the question are you ready to send troops back to iraq? what about that? >> i think they will be. i think dick cheney being attacked by dick cheney is a boon for barack obama and democrats to make this case. cheney is the darth vader of american foreign policy except darth vader actually fought in star wars. he sits in air conditioned conference rooms and wants to sends others to fight and die in endless wars. his wall street journal op-ed is a tissue of lies, noz a consequential as the lies he told to get into iraq. it's one lie after another. maliki wouldn't sign a status of forces agreement. you know why? the iranians didn't want him to. why did the iranians have that kind of influence? because george bush and dick cheney took us into a war that removed one of the counter weights to iranians and made iraq an ally of the iranians. >> what does cheney have to gain by taking this position and being so critical of the president? what is his mission here? >> it's an exercise in the endless rhetoric of redemption. he wants to somehow or other redeem the terrible mistake he made. i don't think he believes it was a mistake. i thnk he may believe the lies he told, although how anyone could believe there were weapons of mass destruction at this point is beyond me. he probably has some rationalization that attempts to make that case. look, he said in that op-ed that al qaeda has largely defeated by 2009. he left out two facts. number one, al qaeda was never in iraq at all until we invaded in 2003. bush and cheney are the people that got al qaeda into iraq. number two, they were largely defeat the because of a sunni awakening where tribes have come together, fought on our side, which was then destroyed by maliki who run a shiite only government and because we had 70, 80, 100,000 troops there. what he wants and you're right about this, a permanent series of american occupations of these places. he and john mccain would have a war in syria, nigeria and war in iraq. the president faces some very tough choices here. but one thing i think he is absolutely not going to do is send back american ground troops. >> what the president i think needs to do is tell the congress, your voice better be heard on this. i don't see how the president could do anything without a move of the congress at this point. >> i think he could use some air power and may not want to go to congress before he does it because there's an element of surprise involved. but i hope that before he does it, there's real pressure on the maliki government to say, you've got to be more inclusive. the real reason you have so much sunnis joining the uprising after they had gone in the opposite direction in the last part of the last decade is because maliki has so marginalized them and so repressed them and ignored them, i think we have to press them for a more inclusive government. >> it's saddam of a different sorts, it really is. >> yep. >> looking back on what happened in 2003, i remember senator robert bird of west virginia on the senate floor telling this country that we need to be aware of a second war and that would be the war for the peace. and i believe that we are there right now. bob shrum, great to have you with us. >> thank you. >> remember to answer tonight's question at the bottom of the screen. share your thoughts with us. we always want to know what you think and we respond to it. coming up, a historic trademark ruling today could have big implications for the nfl, the rapid response panel weighs in on whether a name change is in store for the washington redskins. first, an exclusive look inside the humanitarian crisis on the u.s./mexico border. when folks think about what they get from alaska, they think salmon and energy. but the energy bp produces up here creates something else as well: jobs all over america. engineering and innovation jobs. advanced safety systems & technology. shipping and manufacturing. across the united states, bp supports more than a quarter million jobs. when we set up operation in one part of the country, people in other parts go to work. that's not a coincidence. it's one more part of our commitment to america. hey, i heard you guys can help me with frog protection?

tell us what these people are going through? >> first of all, you've got wrung kids with no parents, little girls and boys coming across the river with in south texas with no parents. they traveled thousands of miles and difficult parts of mexico to get over here. it's heartbreaking to see those young kids to come across and right now, we're getting about 1500, 1200 or 1500 people cross just in that part of the country. out of that, 300 to 400 of them are kids with no parents. just a sight that a wave of humanity we're seeing right now. >> what are these kids telling you? i want to hear what they had to say to you. >> i did have an opportunity to talk to a lot of those kids as they held each other in their hands, sisters and little girls just holding their hands, basically they said several reasons, one is violence, the violence of those countries has just been growing. honduras is the number capital murder in this part of the world. some are coming in to join families or parents, already here in the united states. and quite honestly, i think the other thing is they didn't say this but i think we know what's going on. they know if you're somebody from central america, if you step here, you're going to be given this notice to appear and you pretty much are going to stay here for quite a while. >> you met with the honduran ambassador today. what's the solution here? >> we talked about setting up a stronger protocol between the central american countries like honduras and the united states, how do we return those folks faster. he wants to get some of those kids returned back. he wants unite them back with their families if they are back there in honduras. we've got to set up those protocols number one. he wants to go after knows smuggling drug organizations carrying out that and start a campaign in their country. >> do they have any responsibility to those kids that are in the cells right now? >> absolutely. absolutely. they have a responsibility just like we're taking care of those kids, we're providing them food, medical care, shelter, we're doing that. but those countries have a responsibility to make sure that those kids are not coming over here. you just can't say as a country, imagine if we did this as a country and let our 9-year-olds or 10-year-olds to travel thousands of miles without parents, they have to share the responsibility also. >> let's go back to the picture we just showed a moment ago. the little kid on the left and little girl on the right, how did they get here? obviously someone brought them here. are some of these kids with parents? i mean, i can see a teenager coming along by his or herself. what about these young kids? >> you know, they gave different stories in the sense that several of them said we heard or i heard there was a group of people coming so i went with them to go find a family member in the united states. but certainly the smuggling organizations are really doing this because think about this, like today, how do we have in south texas a border patrol agent just told me that 280 people through my congressional district in south texas just crossed the river and said here we are. mothers and kids. there's an organization to this chaos that we're seeing down there on the border. >> you said the administration and the state department are not on the same page with central america. it's not on the radar screen i believe was the comment. >> right, expand on that a little bit. what do you mean? >> again, there has to be a sense of urgency. any time the kids are coming over, besides the danger they are put in, it is costing us $250 a day to take care of those kids. we've got to do it. we have to share the compassion and share the kids. >> we're not doing enough, right? >> we've got to -- we've got to talk to the countries, central american countries and say, hey, we have got to get the campaigns moving down there and get the word out not to allow the kids to come over here. >> henry cuellar, thanks so much. a victory today for the native american community. rapid response panel weighs in on the fight of the washington redskins team name. confronting george wills dismissive and harmful views on rape. ob-gyn jen guntener joins me to discuss the realities of surviving sexual assault. i'm taking your questions, ask he h ed live. we're right back. ♪ ♪ [ girl ] my mom, she makes underwater fans that are powered by the moon. ♪ [ birds squawking ] my mom makes airplane engines that can talk.

is this the government telling private business this is what you have to do? for discussion our rapid response panel, a number of the indian nation and terrence moore, national sports columnist with us today. today's decision what do you think it means to the native american community? >> well, first of all, i think it means everybody should go on ebay and purchase as much redskins officially licensed redskins gear as possible because soon those are going to be collector's items. i think it's a death nell. it means that this name pretty soon -- the financial pressure will continue to escalate because dan snyder and rg3 are going to continue to be bombarded to the extent their team continues to not be competitive, a terrible team, have to answer the questions outside the perimeters of football. for native people, this should be an incredibly emboldening decision and right decision ultimately, because the standard, the legal standard that they came up with today and previously used in previous opinions was a substantial composite. they didn't say to this one individual native person that lives on the snow squall mish reservation, is he offended subjectively by this but enough native people are offended by this name we're going to take action. >> terrence your take on this, this is an interesting point. what about the players? this kind of puts them in an untenable position with the constant social pressure out there and what could force team owner dan snyder to do anything. your take? >> for first point jeb bailey who used to play for them for years, going to be a hall of fame defensive back. this is a racist thing that should be change and you have santana moss with the team right now says that he's perfectly fine with it. tells you the perspective, if you're on the team right now, you have to say what you have to say. when you're away from the team, you've got a very in a different perspective. i'll tell you something very interesting, i'm in cincinnati right now heading to oxford ohio where i'm on the miami university alumni board of directors and we have an alumni weekend coming up. the reason i'm saying that is because the redskins should learn from the alma mater. for years miami university was called the redskins from 1920 to 1997, we're talking about a school with a lot of tradition, some of the great college coaches and nfl coaches. and and remember now the university because of the miami indian tribe. 1996, the name was offensive and the university within months changed the name and that was way back when. it was offensive to one person. you've got to change the name. >> well, congress, what is their role at this point? nancy pelosi released a statement today and says while we respect the right to free speech, slurs have no right to trademark pro interrogatitectiom should be a sense of pride to all americans and it's long past time for the washington football team to choose a new name. is this going to have any impact? >> yeah, definitely. all of these things. i'm a trial lawyer by trade and ultimately this would be what a categorize as parade of horrors. you have on one hand obama taking an position, an opinion on the name. you have 50 senators. you have constant bombardment of questions, you have this trademark protection issue that he's going to have to fend off and spend resources. ultimately all of this stuff piles on. once again he's using band width. when we talk about native people, tribes, 562 tribes and some of our tribes have very substantial economic means. a lot of us don't but that doesn't matter. all of us use certain things. one of the things that all of us use is financing. one of the major sponsors of the washington redskins is the bank of america. all of us use postal services and one of the major sponsors is federal express. once we talk about putting a very concentrated die investment campaign to say, look, federal express and bank of america, so long as you continue to sponsor this team, that has racial slur -- then the real economic pressure begins. this is part of a larger narrative that ultimately ends with dan snyder completely respectfully changing the name because of economic pressure. >> i think the nba got a lesson in economics on that not too long ago. >> absolutely. >> terrence, finally, do you think this will push roger goodell away from protecting the redskins. >> absolutely. one thing the leagues and teams understand is money. now that the trademark is taken away, you and i can sell risk in merchandise which means it will affect nfl properties. people don't realize this but nfl properties makes a bundle for the nfl and that money is split equally between all of the various teams. this is going to cut into that. once you start messing with that money, that's when they start to react. >> no doubt. great to have both of you with us tonight on "the ed show". >> coming up, glenn beck takes a left turn on iraq?
