Liz Cheney to AIPAC: Problems with Bush administration’s Mideast policy

[RamboLiberal]

Liz Cheney — daughter of V.P. — fired off a few shots during her appearance today at the AIPAC conference, essentially aimed at her former boss, Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, and her former boss’ boss, President Bush. Cheney didn’t call either of them out by name, but, among other things, but did criticize two major initiatives backed by Bush and Rice: the Palestinian legislative elections that ended up bringing Hamas to power and the current effort to advance the peace process

The Palestinians, Cheney said, are not “ready” to reach an agreement. Making matters worse, she added, this futile pursuit of peace will ultimately draw resources away from confronting Iran.

Rice is slated to speak Tuesday morning. It’ll be interesting to see if she responds.

3. She is the head of ISOG at the State Department and reportedly has $75 mil operating budget

We apparantly aren't supposed to know about ISOG, since the corporate media thinks it's best to never ask about it.

Larisa Alexandrovna: Lizzie Cheney - The Pride of Lockheed Martin - Speaketh - Politics on The Huffington Post

Something is troubling Elizabeth Cheney, the other daughter of the Lockheed-Halliburton syndicate. Although the problem troubling our dear Lizzie is not her conscience, because that would require first that she have a conscience. No, what is troubling Lizzie is the lack of courage and an interest in losing she ascribes to those who are opposed to her daddy's war.
Writing a Washington Post opinion that no one asked for and no one wants, especially from this family, Lizzie attacks those that threaten future war profits...
