On Dick Cheney

Ok. I get the fact that former VP Dick Cheney is not happy with the Obama administrations policy on the War on Terror or the fact that the DHS Secretary does not want to call it the War on Terror. Thought we should have learned that from the Clinton administration. Anyways, I dont think that Cheney is helping the country by openly criticizing the Obama adminstration like this. The rule was that ex presidents should not criticize the current administration. I think that should apply to the VP's as well. We all know that Cheney does not agree with the Obama adminstration on almost anything(unless you really dont know or dont care). The problem with Cheney's comments I believe is that it gives ammunition to the terrorists and it undermines peoples confidence in the current administration. I think that we all need to believe that the current administration is doing everything in their power to protect us even while we disagree with it. Its also important because Cheney is a former administration official who sat on the National Security Council. My main concern is that Cheney has not pointed out any specific thing that the current administration has done that would give us cause for concern other than the fact that he has a policy difference with them.
