Cheney Security Rant an Attack on Bush, Not Obama
David Brooks, New York Times | May 22, 2009
When Dick Cheney lambasted the change in US security policy under President Obama, he was not really attacking the current administration,
but the previous one. ++ The changes to policy - such as a push to close Guantanamo and opposition to questionable interrogation techniques - had become evident in about 2003 under Condoleezza Rice and others. ++ Obama has taken many of the same policies Bush ended up with, and he has made them credible to the country and the world. ++ In doing so, he has made the US more secure.
