What he said made perfect sense to me. I know many make not like the message and its arguable whether he should be so visible and what his goal is. I do think it is appropriate that to the extent the current administration wants to blame everything on the previous administration (to the point of calling them socialists) then they should expect a formal rebuttal. This is usually done by cabinet-level personnel although both Jimmy Carter and Bill Clinton ignored tradition and did it themselves.

I think given that Cheney has no future plans for a role in government and his role in the previous administration it is entirely reasonable and appropriate for him to respond to the allegations made by the Obama administration. So Hound, you may not like it but it appears Cheney is going to be the point person to correct misrepresentations and allegations of the current administration and while you may not like him he is effective.
