A one-time aide to former Vice President Dick Cheney suggested Sunday that recent reports about Cheney and the CIA are a distraction designed to avert attention away from the policy struggles of the Obama administration.
This is very suspect timing, Republican strategist and former Cheney adviser Mary Matalin said Sunday on CNNs State of the Union. The presidents agenda is almost in shambles. His [poll] numbers are dropping. Isnt it coincidental; they gin up a Cheney story.
Matalin also said that the Executive branch has some authority under the nations intelligence laws to not disclose information to Congress under certain circumstances.
The more people that know, the more it leaks . . . and then the enemy knows what it is, Matalin said of details about other intelligence programs that were leaked to the media.

Dick Cheney, the boogeyman hiding under the bed....
I think it has PELOSI written all over it. Two months ago Pelosi vs. CIA was everywhere, now it has been sucessfully squashed
When the news is ALL bad, CHANGE the news.
It’s just so predictable. I don’t even need to read Rules for Radicals and I could tell you what’s in it by the tactics Obama employs. I can’t tell you which rule # this is but it’s a deliberate tactic to divert attention one way, while they screw the American people over.
O-bingo!
They pick these things out of a hat at lunch???
Yup , deflection 4 sure BUT,
if barry or barack or whatever his name is tries to crimminalize politics and goes the chavez route he`ll be pushing people to the edge of a resortation via revolution of the Constitutional Republic.
Well du!
You wonder why the Dem didn’t go after Bush/Cheney asap.. this is why, they were sandbagging till the polls were down, then distract the public and whack Bush/Cheney

I said on this forum back in February when Eric Holder and Obama said they wouldn’t go after the Bushies to watch out—that this crowd would generate juicy tidbits for when they really got desperate. That hour has arrived. Take it as great news. His Gallup down 12 pts since the awful jobs report. Healthcare and cap-n-tax are DOA. Blunders over Iran and Honduras (Dems on Hill backtracking on Zelaya). Chilly reception in Russia. Bootie-watching Barry at the G8. Americans are souring on the Pretender-in-Chief. They are running scared.
You just have to love that Cheney look!
I love how Wolf Blitzer, in the linked video, holds up the NY Times or the cover of Newsweek, and points out the headlines with his pen, word for word, and then gives that little “aha” pause; as if his viewership has the intelligence of a five or six year old. Oh wait, that IS the intelligence of his viewership. What’s next, phonetically spelling headlines? Will he show flash cards with animal symbols and plus signs? How about Big Bird and the Cookie Monster acting out little vignettes? This is simply ludicrous.
That may just be our only choice after 2010....
I hope the liberals who support these cowardly democrats realize that nothing will happen. This is a show to keep them in line.
Under Bush and his administration they were mostly living well with plenty of money and jobs. HA...we knew this was coming....after what 2 years of donkeys majority in congress destroying what the Bush administration had done to help this country and Americans...now BO working overtime to destroy this nation with the intentional help of the donkey majority in congress...Hmmmm....guess they didn't think it would happen soooooooooo fast....this is too funny if it wasn't sad to see the radicals in congress and the WH doing the unthinkable....
That’s one of my favorite pictures. We had the best!! I wish Bush and Cheney and their families the very best...and humbly thank them.
“...may just be our only choice after 2010...”
I fully expect the 800 Billion to flow in time for the mid terms and solidfy the totalitarian socialist democrat party super majorities in Congress and fully expect a one party totalitarian State after ACORN and the WH take care of the census numbers now that that office (cencsus) was moved into barry`s bedroom at the wh and they can corrupt the election process for generations ala chavez
