You think Cheney is making noises about the Obama Administration because
he is confident that Obama will never investigate him..

and he wants to muddy the picture about what really happened between 2001 and 2009?

2. Check out this article -
http://thinkprogress.org/2009/03/31/hersh-cheney-behind/

I think Cheney's stayed here in the DC area, building a big new house not far from CIA headquarters in McLean, because he really is still very tied in with the government, having left behind a lot of his own people. No other VP ever stayed here after his tenure.

I also think - and maybe I'm nuts - that he's in cahoots with any number of terrorist organizations who will hit the US again, a la 9/11, and Cheney's simply watching out for Halliburton's interests. That's what I think his recent public appearances have been about - he's warning Obama, in the hope that he'll look like a really prescient leader.

For me, I'll be trying to watch when he and the lovely Lynne are out of town...............

3. I think it could be the opposite.
I think he may be afraid that the Obama Administration *will* indeed investigate him, and he's trying to build a defense.

4. I think the man may have some serious issues with reality.

5. It's the sound of noxious gases escaping from the old corpse.
