It was without a hint of irony that Liz Cheney smugly spent her entire speech at CPAC blasting the Obama administration’s national security policy as fundamentally dangerous, harping on the Christmas Day/Underwear Bomb attack as evidence that Obama’s wisdom and judgment cannot be trusted and that the administration’s incompetence is getting people killed.
Then, at the end, she brought out her father (who just so happened to be Vice President on the day of the worst terrorist attack in US history) as an example of someone with the proper foreign policy and national security expertise (I didn’t include any of Dick Cheney’s short remarks because, frankly, they weren’t very interesting other than his assertion to Barack Obama would be a one-term president):
