Amen, I am so sick of republicans who don’t know the first thing about dirty debate tricks and allow themselves to be bamboozled.

[Bahbah]

I have never seen anyone do a better job. She was amazing.

[RegulatorCountry]

The gratuitous dig at Palin was telling. What elective office has Ms. Cheney ever won with her mad debating skillz, speaking of novice?

[gopsue]

Liz Cheney needs to give lessons to every Republican. Any Republican who will be on television or give any appearance should get training sessions with her. Michael Steele should hire her pronto!

[Free Vulcan]

"That's how you do it. That's how you debate."

[samtheman]

Wow. Liz Cheney is not only logical, and not only able to present her logic in a very coherent manner, but she really keeps her cool. Bravo, Liz. Bravo.

Here is the interview that the article refers to:

Now let’s see Liz Cheney vs. Princess McCain! Go Liz!

[tanknetter]

Cheney's peformance reminded me of the Hank Rearden "trial" in Atlas Shrugged. Refuse to accept the premise of the argument/accusation being made.

[McGruff]

I distinctly remember during the Republican presidential primary debates when the Republican candidates were asked to raise their hands if they believed in man made global warming.  Like good little first graders, all but one did. Watch the video carefully. Fred Thompson stopped the nonsense.

At that moment I knew what a sorry pack of losers made up the “leadership” of the Republican Party.

Fred 2012. I'll still vote for him.

[Plutarch]

Norah O'Donnell was desperate not to be bested by Lynn Cheney, she was using all her advantages and techniques, and all to no avail.

Bravo...bravissimo, Lynn Cheney!

[Carley]

Liz dismantled Nora. It was brilliantly done.

[exit82]

Outstanding debate by Liz Cheney. She had the mastery of the subject and refused to accept the wrong, biased premises of Norah O’Donnell, which were probably fed to her through an earpiece.

The se techniques were not torture.

As for the Geneva Convention, there are two important points:

1. The Convention covers uniformed combatants. No rights are proscribed for no-uniformed enemy combatants.

2. Since we signed it in 1947, the Geneva Convention has not protected ONE American soldier in a major conflict. Torture and death have been visited on American POWs in staggering numbers since we signed that worthless piece of paper.

Liz Cheney also brought out the brillaint point that our enemies now can read of our self imposed interrogation limits on-line and train accordingly.

Obam has weakened us, given aid and comfort to our enemies, and set us for additional attacks. That is a violation of his oath of office.

[WoofDog123]

I watched this. The woman is excellent at expressing herself and retaining some control over this interview with a very hostile anchor.

[Exit148]

Great responses by Liz. She knew her stuff, wouldn’t let Norah get by with shilly stuff and brought her down a peg. I hope she stays up front in this!

[Doctor Raoul]

Disappointed on Norah. She knows better.

[mockingbyrd]

Palin/Cheney 2012!

Sarah/Liz. Now that's gotta give the libs an aneurysm!

[jwalsh07]

Wow.

She’s as impressive as her Mom and Dad.

And maybe even more so.

A tremendous debater which is only a small part of her skill set.

Very, very impressive.
