From the Washington Post's Dan Balz via MSNBC:
As vice president, Richard B. Cheney famously spent much of the past eight years in "undisclosed locations" and offering private advice to George W. Bush. Today Cheney is the most visible and controversial critic of President Obama's national security policies and, to the alarm of many people in the Republican Party, the most forceful and uncompromising defender of the Bush administration's record.
But there is a potential political price that his party may pay in having one of the highest officials in an administration repudiated in the last election continue to argue his case long after the voters have rendered their decision.
In addition, Cheney’s daughter Liz is a by-rote mouthpiece and has as much credibility as the infamous Sarah Palin.
I can understand why the White House is perfectly content to have Dick out in the forefront of the Republican party. If possible, he makes the GOP appear more inept than they already are.
