Once Dick Cheney takes out zer0bama I want to see Liz Cheney take out Princess McCain (and all other comers.) Then Sarah can take on anybody she wants to, GOP or DEM. Three up, three down. We win.
The scene before Cheney’s speech

About a dozen cameras and a packed room await Cheney’s speech. A big screen has been set up in the small room, where the Obama speech will be piped into the Cheney audience.
Cheney’s speech will immediately follow Obama’s.

*** Previewing Cheneys speech:
Meanwhile, Politicos Mike Allen gets a heads-up of what Cheney will say.
The gist: When President Obama makes wise decisions, he deserves our support. And when he mischaracterizes the national security decisions we made in the Bush years, he deserves an answer. The point is not to look backward. But a truthful telling of history is necessary to inform our choices going forward.
Allen also notes that Cheney will defend the effectiveness of Gitmo and enhanced interrogation techniques. Finally, Cheney will say the American people deserve to see the whole picture as they assess the policies of the past — not just half the story. We’ve also gotten a heads-up on what the former VP will say.
It’s our understanding that among the praise Cheney will dish out will be the administration’s decision to rescind releasing those military prison abuse photos. For his part, Cheney believes his role is helping keep the Obama administration from capitulating to the left on these national security issues, which he believes is its natural instinct.
Cheney also will continue to make the case that the prosecution of the war on terror should be kept out of the hands of law enforcement and should stay in the hands of the military.

Heard earlier that I believe it’s Lynn, not Liz Cheney, will be on with Chuck Todd on MSNBC after the speeches.
I would love to see Cheney support Palin.
