Cheney says Obama should apologize to Bush administration after al-Awlaki killing Former Vice President Dick Cheney says that following the killing of Anwar al-Awlaki, President Obama owes the George W. Bush administration an apology. Cheney, speaking on CNN's "State of the Union" Sunday, offered support for the targeted killing by drone strike last week of the Yemeni-American radical cleric al-Awlaki, but he said that Obama now needs to reverse his past criticism of how the Bush administration interrogated suspected terrorists. The Obama administration "in effect had said that we had walked away from our ideals or taken policy contrary to our ideals when we had enhanced interrogation techniques," the former vice president said. Al-Awlaki's death indicates that members of the Obama administration "clearly have moved in the direction of taking robust action when they feel it's justified," Cheney said. "You'd like an apology, it sounds like?" host Candy Crowley asked the former vice president. "Well I would," Cheney responded, "I think that would be a--not for me--but I think for the Bush administration." He'll get his apology after his war crimes trials Too bad for you the Bush-Cheney admistration sought and obtain Congressional approval for whatever you Obamaminions consider "war crimes", while the Obama-Biden has not. Those laws still apply, professor. You`re just jealous about President Obama`s success, compared to bush`s failures. Ya`ll can`t help yourselve`s and this is the way you`re expressing it.
