For four years George W. Bush was given the benefit of the doubt about his presidential decisions.  During the run-up to the Iraq War, people expressed a few doubts, but in general, it was assumed that he knew what he was doing.  We all know how that turned out.  Now President Obama receives the fallout from that.  Every single thing he does receives inordinate criticism.  I daresay Cheney would love to comment on how President Obama ties his own shoes.  Does Cheney even remember that many of his so-called ideas turned out badly? It is intensely unpatriotic for Cheney to use his old position as Vice President to run down our current president.  He has no room to talk, since many of his decisions were so very flawed.  I think it is important for Americans to remember, “United we stand; divided we fall.”
