4:44Now PlayingGeorge H. W. Bush has a new book out where he calls Dick Cheney an “Iron Ass” warmonger. The Dark Lord Cheney took it as a compliment. Cenk Uygur, host of the The Young Turks, breaks it down. Tell us what you think in the comment section below.

“I’ve concluded that Lynne Cheney is a lot of the eminence grise here—iron-ass, tough as nails, driving,” George H.W. Bush said. (One takeaway from the book is Bush’s love of the phrase “iron-ass,” which seems at once like a dated Yankee descriptor and also delightfully vivid.)...
