The muted response, allies said, was aimed at denying al Qaeda a propaganda victory, and at demonstrating how little the terrorists can now disrupt Americans’ lives. “The president and his team have done a good job at handling the situation given the competing interests at play. He’s been forceful without the bellicose chest bumping of the last administration,” said Jim Manley, the chief spokesman for Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid. “One thing he’s got going for him is Republicans have no credibility on this issue when their sending out former Vice President Cheney you know they’ve hit the bottom of the barrel.”
The bias from Politico oozes from how matter-of-factly they report the "lack" of Republican credibility on fighting terrorism, as if they wished everyone to believe this to be the case.

I agree in part.
At least they reported that Zero rushed his friend’s kid to the hospital in a presidential motorcade showing how seriously he took a friend’s kid’s medical condition. The kid was more important to Zero than the 200+ people on the flight. Zero is a socialist elitist and this report gives another example of it.
Zero and his White House are like Louis the XIV and his Court except for the lack of competence on the part of Zero and the White House.
However, Politico should have talked to the GOP to allow them to respond to the Cheney statement.
