Obama in Knots over Cheney

(By Shannen Coffin/National Review Online) - Barack Obama's criticism of Vice President Cheney is as incoherent as his energy policy. On the stump yesterday, Obama reportedly "emphasized the key role of Cheney, the unpopular vice president, in President Bush's energy policy." According to an AP account, Obama said, ""President Bush, he had an energy policy. He turned to Dick Cheney and he said, 'Cheney, go take care of this. Cheney met with renewable-energy folks once and oil and gas (executives) 40 times. McCain has taken a page out of the Cheney playbook."
