Those of us who see Bush clearly don’t need direct quotes from Cheney to understand how severely Bush failed in many many of his policies.
Then you fall prey to one of the MSM's cleverest tricks...MSM opinion cloaked in really bad journalism. Few or no or unrelated direct quotes from the principal people and many quotes from "unnamed sources" who were "there".
“Those of us who see Bush clearly don’t need direct quotes from Cheney to understand how severely Bush failed in many many of his policies.”
That depends on whether or not Bush’s agenda was conservative or liberal. If liberal, he didn’t fail. Of course, the Democrats still hated him for advancing their interests.... they are idiots, after all.
Cheney always seemed like a conservative to me, so I’m presuming he took issue with the expansion of government and debt outside the war. I’d be interested on his views on border defense, frankly. As Vice President, it was not proper to have vocal and public policy disagreements with the President. He acted properly, if he did disagree.
