Perhaps the real reason Dick Cheney emerged from his eight years in an undisclosed location?
With his sustained blitz of television appearances and speeches, former Vice President Dick Cheney has established himself as perhaps the leading Republican voice against President Obama.
Not a bad time, then, to be in the market for a multimillion-dollar book contract.
Mr. Cheney is actively shopping a memoir about his life in politics and service in four presidential administrations ...
It makes sense. Why would Cheney care about salvaging his or George Bush's legacy? After all, when told that two-thirds of the American people didn't think the war in Iraq was worth fighting, his one word response was, "So?" He doesn't give a rat's ass what anyone thinks about the Bush/Cheney administration. A multimillion-dollar book deal? Now that's something he's willing to fight for.
