He Sure Does Love The Attention Now

Via the terrific Greg Sargent, take a look at how our former disgraced Vice President has suddenly now been on TV more than Apple and Dos Equis commercials. (If the image is too small, just click on it)



And the networks have all been willing to let him spew his aspersions and delusions. Only our "liberal media."

(Thanks to the great Pew Research group for their terrific journalism).

Update: Via Washington Monthly ace Steve Benen :

After Obama's speech in Cairo this morning, the "Morning Joe" crew began its analysis. Apparently concerned that Liz Cheney hasn't been on the cable networks nearly enough lately, "Morning Joe" invited the former Bush administration official to offer more obligatory criticism of the president.

Former VP's daughter tells MSNBC she "was troubled by the extent to which I heard moral relativism."

Whatever. Liz Cheney's disappointment is of no real consequence. It's neither surprising nor interesting. Concerns about "moral relativism," coming from a Bush administration official, are a little too ironic, anyway.

And therein lies the point: why is Liz Cheney on television every day? Are we approaching the point at which every important presidential speech requires a Cheney response?

Not surprising that in the second link that Benen used came from Mark Halperin, who is Jake Tapper's main competition for "Hack of Hacks."

I wonder if the Pew will do a research on daddy's little girl being on air so much herself?
