When did Cheney ever use his influence against TARP?

What influence? By the time of TARP Cheney couldn't even get President Bush to pardon Scooter Libby!

Is that an attempt to defend Cheney's inaction on this issue? My point is that Cheney never even made fighting TARP a priority. Instead, he thought that defending Scooter was more important than even trying to speak out against the greatest leap to socialism in decades.
