Ex-president says he won't personally make trouble for Obama.

George W. Bush today offered his first public endorsement of Dick Cheney’s repeated attacks on President Obama. “I’m glad Cheney is out there,” Bush declared at a reunion breakfast for administration alumni.

He's following precedent (ignored by Clinton, of course) of not directly criticizing your successor.

I enjoy Cheney's attacks on Obama too.

Too often the Bush administration said nothing while the Dems and the MSM monopolized the conversation with their lies and nonsense. GWB may not have cared, but it was demoralizing watching this administration not respond to anything.

Cheney could have been a wonderful and forceful advocate for his administration and I wish he had been more outspoken while in office.

Precedent? He knows full well that he can't defend the indefensible. Let Cheney throw a few jabs and look like a fool.

The jabs he has landed have been knock-outs, carried widely by the MSM, debated incessantly by the pundits and so worrisome to obama that he sent out Biden to try and preempt Cheney last time.

Cheney speaks, the nation listens.
