Now that their presidential term has ended, Dick Cheney is airing his frustrations with being co-commander under President George W. Bush. It seems that Cheney had frustrations with GWB and he didn’t feel that he had his attention during their second term. Cheney is writing a memoir and he spilled his guts to one of the co-authors of the book.

“In the second term, he felt Bush was moving away from him. He said Bush was shackled by the public reaction and the criticism he took. Bush was more malleable to that. The implication was that Bush had gone soft on him, or rather Bush had hardened against Cheney’s advice. He’d showed an independence that Cheney didn’t see coming. It was clear that Cheney’s doctrine was cast-iron strength at all times — never apologize, never explain — and Bush moved toward the conciliatory.”

Well we all know that Cheney was the real devil anyway and it’s probably a good thing that he didn’t fully have Bush’s ear. With Cheney’s radical right wing agendas, we can only imagine what the country might be like if he did. Well Dick, we could have told you that George Bush wasn’t the right man for the job, but you didn’t listen. That’s gonna be some juicy memoir!
