I always shake my head in amazement at the pundits (including some here) who consider Richard Cheney a liability to the President's re-election campaign. It's a bizarre perception.
Maybe that is because they fear that if given the chance he would be a GREAT president!
Agreed !
I was captivated by his speech. Most of all because I didn't expect it to be so filled with emotion, but with all those standing in silence . . . you could hear a pin drop . . . well, it was very moving. IMHO Cheney continues to earn his shot at the nomination. Reagan served 2 terms @ 70 through 78 years, and last a lasting legacy.
Think about this for a moment. Who would have thought way back in 1974 that in 2004 Richard Cheney would gather every member of the House and Senate, and all the chief justices, in the capitol rotunda, on live TV, use the phrase "Reagan Revolution".
Well, it just sends chills down my spine. I can't remember when I've been so proud to be a Conservative American.
