Liz Cheney is No Innocent Bystander. She Was Dick's Mole in the State Department on the Middle East.

By Mark Karlin

It's all supposed to be very touching, a loving daughter defending her father against slanderous, defaming partisan accusations.

Now that Dick Cheney has once again retreated to an "undisclosed location," his only ubiquitous vocal defender appears to be one of his daughters, Liz, who has herself indicated that she is interested in a political future.

But Liz Cheney may have more than paternalistic protectiveness in her heart, because Liz was part of her father's foreign policy operation when he was vice-president.

Indeed, Liz Cheney served two stints in the State Department while Dick was up to his illegal and largely still unknown secretive actions. And she wasn't stationed at the Iceland desk. She had responsibilities directly related to "diplomacy" in the Middle East.

1. "Diplomacy" -- they josh.
That's quite a cozy little group...daughter, son-in-law...Lynne didn't have some little task to help "Daddy"?

I trust neither of the two "kids" are employed by the U.S. Government in those capacities? Or are the moles still in their holes?

2. What's really sad for me
is that the more I see daddy's little girl on the teevee, the more she looks like daddy.:scared:

3. Like many kids, Liz is just following in dear ol' dad's footsteps--as a member of the machine.

The entire family--Darth, Lynn and the two daughters--sold their souls long ago. "Innocent bystander" is never a term to be used when describing all things Cheney*. Cold, calculating and ruthless are much better terms and far more accurate. Liz isn't just standing up for daddy or some other ridiculous bullshit. She's into it up to her reptilian eyeballs. She, like her mommy, isn't just a witness to the crime, she's an accomplice and collaborator.

5. If Liz does run for office
anyone know what state she represents? Wyoming? She needs a severe trouncing.
