What Cheney didn't realize he said...
A very telling comment by Cheney, near the end of the debate:
His question was about the polarization of the nation, and his response was, essentially, that it is MUCH worse now than when he was working in earlier administrations and when he was in Congress.
Exactly. In those earlier, more bi-partisan, less divisive, times, Democrats held the Congressional/Senate majorities. Now that the Publicans rule the roost, they have no interest in bipartisanship or collegiality.
