This article hits the nail on the head in a perfectly accurate depiction of Dick Cheney.

Cheney's Dark Heart Pumps Lies, Treachery

Like Rush Limbaugh, Cheney's bosom buddy and side kick in serial lies, distortions, misrepresentations and straw man arguments, Big Dick takes on unidentified "people," "they" and the amorphous "administration." Who is more concerned about reading Miranda rights to bin Laden's killers than protecting Americans? Cheney couldn't name one, even if keeping his government-provided, socialized medicine pacemaker depended on doing so.

Cheney's Dark Heart Pumps Lies, Treachery | The Smirking Chimp

Cheney conveniently ignores his own role - as head of Bush's taskforce on terrorism - in completely ignoring the threat of al Qaeda until after the Sept. 11th attacks. Cheney received the same CIA briefing as Bush on August 6, 2001 in a warning entitled "Bin Laden Determined to Strike in US" and did nothing to respond to the threat. When Bush appeared before the 9/11 Commission, he would only do so accompanied by Cheney, a reflection of the Vice President's significant role in shaping U.S preparedness to the threat from bin Laden, which was essentially to do nothing.

Another very reliable news source for the left.

A place where they can all get together and talk about those nasty Republicans because no one there will question facts and figures, they can just all high 5 each other, woo hoo, you said something bad about Cheney, you must be cool..

Oh, he's just upset that VP Cheney has called out his savior to release the documents that show the interrogation techniques worked.

Deflection.

Just because Cheney says that these documents that remain classified make him look good, doesn't make it so. The man is a snake and a liar.

They probably would incriminate him even further but he knows that the information they contain is too sensitive to ever be released.
