Dick Cheney v. George W. Bush

President Obama to VP Biden at the White House: Is that Dick Cheney trying to hop the fence again?

According to reports, former U.S. Vice President, Dick Cheney, is not happy with former President, George W. Bush, regarding his bitterness at the end result of the advice the once second in command gave during his tenure.

"In the second term, he felt Bush was moving away from him," said a participant in the recent gathering, describing Cheney's reply. "He said Bush was shackled by the public reaction and the criticism he took. Bush was more malleable to that. The implication was that Bush had gone soft on him, or rather Bush had hardened against Cheney's advice. He'd showed an independence that Cheney didn't see coming. It was clear that Cheney's doctrine was cast-iron strength at all times -- never apologize, never explain -- and Bush moved toward the conciliatory."...
