Has it risen from 20 per cent to 21 per cent? I noticed you didn't
provide any numbers or a reference.

Poll: Favorable opinions of Cheney rise
By Paul Steinhauser
CNN Deputy Political Directort
WASHINGTON (CNN) -- As Dick Cheney prepares to give a major speech on
the battle against terrorism, a new national poll suggests that
favorable opinions of the former vice president are on the rise.
Former Vice President Dick Cheney is scheduled to give a major speech
on the battle against terrorism Thursday.
Former Vice President Dick Cheney is scheduled to give a major speech
on the battle against terrorism Thursday.
But the CNN/Opinion Research Corporation survey, released Thursday
morning, indicates that a majority of Americans still have an
unfavorable opinion of Cheney.
Fifty-five percent of people questioned in the poll say they have an
unfavorable opinion of the former vice president. Thirty-seven percent
say they have a favorable opinion of Cheney, up 8 percentage points
from January when he left office.
In the past two months, the former vice president has become a
frequent critic of the new administration in numerous national media
interviews.
"Is Cheney's uptick due to his visibility as one of the most outspoken
critics of the Obama administration? Almost certainly not," says
Keating Holland, CNN polling director.
"Former President George W. Bush's favorable rating rose 6 points in
that same time period, and Bush has not given a single public speech
since he left office."

* Cheney defends interrogations
The poll suggests that 41 percent of Americans hold a favorable
opinion of the former president, with 57 percent viewing him
unfavorably.
The survey's release comes just a few hours before Cheney speaks out
Thursday on the war against terror during a speech at the American
Enterprise Institute, a Washington-based think tank.
Sources tell CNN that the former vice president is expected to defend
the Bush administration's handling of the war on terror and challenge
the Obama administration's attempt to close the detention facility at
Guantanamo Bay in Cuba. iReport.com: Sound off on Cheney, Obama
speeches
The CNN/Opinion Research Corporation poll was conducted May 14-17,
with 1,010 adult Americans questioned by telephone. The survey's
sampling error is plus or minus 3 percentage points.

I disagree with Cheney's premises and conclusions. I do agree with
President George Washington's "Farewell Address" a portion of which is
quoted below:
." Nothing is more essential, than that permanent, inveterate
antipathies against particular Nations, and passionate attachments for
others, should be excluded; and that, in place of them, just and
amicable feelings towards all should be cultivated. The Nation, which
indulges towards another an habitual hatred, or an habitual fondness,
is in some degree a slave. It is a slave to its animosity or to its
affection, either of which is sufficient to lead it astray from its
duty and its interest. Antipathy in one nation against another
disposes each more readily to offer insult and injury, to lay hold of
slight causes of umbrage, and to be haughty and intractable, when
accidental or trifling occasions of dispute occur. Hence frequent
collisions, obstinate, envenomed, and bloody contests.
Real Patriots, who may resist the intrigues of the favourite, are
liable to become suspected and odious; while its tools and dupes usurp
the applause and confidence of the people, to surrender their
interests. George Washington"

.
Cheney's numbers have risen eight points in the past few months.
President Bush has risen six points in a similar time period.
And that's BEFORE the bills come due on Obama's socialist pipe dreams.

Cheney's poll numbers are probably rising because he is now out of
office and power.

Yes his inability to continue destroying this country garners sympathy from
some idiots.

the towers with a blast from below. The attacks continued in 1995,
with the bombing of U.S. facilities in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia; the
killing of servicemen at Khobar Towers in 1996; the attack on our
embassies in East Africa in 1998; the murder of American sailors on
the USS Cole in 2000." That's six major bombings, with many
casualties, in six years.
Since Cheney 9/11, we've gone well over 2000 days without an attack on
US soil. I dare Obama to do better.

There was a domestic attack just thwarted. Stopped by the FBI that had
infiltrated the scuzzies a year ago. Watch Obama take credit for it.
