brilliant shoot yourself in the foot strategy
big mistake by Obama /Pelosi to keep on this subject of Gitmo, torture etc. It has blown up in their faces. Obama looks like an inexperienced rube taking every position in the book, and finally ending up where Bush was, and Pelosi has been exposed as a fraud while both of them have made enemies at the CIA. All because they cannot resist going after Bush Cheney even though they have nothing to gain from it.
Republicans didn't send Cheney out there, Obama forced his hand.

Makes Republicans look old, tired and bitter. And stupid... Cheney asking for sensitive information to be released to the public... Unbelievable gall.

it wasn't Cheneys choice to have the tortures memos released. after they dumped on our intelligence community by selectively releasing sensitive material that they thought would play well in the media and put Bush/Cheney in a bad light, Cheney requested that they at least be honest and release the documents that showed what intel was gained by using those measures. at this point the only damage that would be done by that is to Obama.

the litmus test for dems has to be that so long as republicans are focused on linking him to the somewhat less popular flavor of the moment, things are going pretty well. particularly with dick cheney insisting on being the public face of the opposition. and i love the evolution of republican arguement. 1) we don't torture. 2) okay. we do torture but it works. 3) so, we're not sure it works but nancy knew. thats a path back to power if i ever saw one.

his positions as a campaigner have not held up very well. first he's closing Gitmo and against tribunals, now he finds out that he can't close Gitmo and tribunals aren't such a bad idea. Cheney is answering the charges against the Bush administration, he is not trying to be the face of the opposition. frankly its not a bad thing for current Republicans because they don't have to weigh in on the issue, they don't have to be dragged into the nonsense. they can sit back and watch Obama take on his favorite demons; Bush, Cheney, Limbaugh, Rove, etc. the guy is transparent and thin-skinned.

and so far as thin skinned goes, i'd have to give that award to the guy who used to be in an undisclosed location but now can't find enough microphones. he really has made more media appearances since jan 20th then he did all of 2007 and 2008 combined. that despite the fact "current republicans" might want to distance themselves from past failures. democratic strategists love cheney. he is doing all he can to delay the day when republicans might return to power. don't expect dems to disengage. it's to their advantage to keep cheney worked up. that isn't being thin skinned. it's being expedient.
