How recent did Cheney say that Obama doesn't read his security briefs?

Was that yesterday that I read that here?

I'd be on the lookout for a statement from the Republican Party that Obama wouldn't know this was going to happen because he doesn't read those briefs.

But then again, I've already established that I don't trust them so I have my tin-foil sombrero on.

4. I thought the allegation was Obama missed a ton of oral PDB briefings

The White House says Obama READS the PDB every damn day, including reading it BEFORE he is given the oral briefing. The Republican Party meme don't hunt, not then, not now.

Cheney comments on the daily briefings.
Netiyahoo - on the demanded meeting
This movie that is said to have precipitated this.
On 9/11
and Rmoney jumping the gun

There are probably more factors that I've missed - but I think I got the main ones.

It all just seems too coordinated - if it was - I think it backfired.

I mean before the statement about Obama's briefings. It all stinks to me.
