Obama Attacks on Former VP Inappropriate

Former President George W. Bush has stated that he will not criticize President Obama. He says he wants to give the new Prez a fair shot- that he owes him his silence. Fair. Classy. No such treatment was enjoyed by the Bush administration, however.

Former VP Dick Cheney has felt it necessary to express cautionary criticisms of the current administration, especially in the area of national security. As much as I admire GW’s classy demeanor and believe he is correct, VP’s are by nature attack dogs, not hampered by presidential protocals. Cheney is just as right to speak out, sharing his knowledge and perspectives for the good of the nation. It is Obama and his henchmen who are in the wrong accusing Cheney as speaking as part of a “Republican Cabal”. His opinions should garner more respect from a President so unable to bear dissenting views.
