“Obviously, I’m not a big fan of President Obama,” Cheney said in an
interview that aired Monday on ABC’s “Good Morning America.” “I think
he’s been one of our weakest presidents. I fundamentally disagree with
him, philosophically. You’d be hard put to find any Democratic president
that I’ve disagreed with more.”
“Worse than Jimmy Carter, from your perspective?” ABC’s Jon Karl asked him.
“Yes.”
Cheney, whose hard line on terrorism came to define his public image, gave the president some credit.
“I wouldn’t say he’s been soft on terror, but I think he’s made a
number of mistakes,” he said. “Bin Laden, fine. A lot of that
intelligence that laid the groundwork for what ultimately led to the
capture of bin Laden was a result of programs we had in place in the
Bush administration.”
