I’m probably the minority here, but I appreciate the decorum. It lowers the temperature of the conversation without outright endorsing what he did.
For me, the time to be angry was when it was happening.
She could have expressed sympathy for the family without whitewashing his 'accomplishments'.
Liz also campaigned on Harris’ behalf. It is possible they ate cordial and this is just her saying something nice about a friend’s dad after he passed.
I forgot about that. Good point.
Yeah, I get that. But at the same time, the whole reason I actually kind of like Liz Cheney is that as far as I can tell she has some integrity unlike her father.
She surely knows her dad's a piece of shit. It's almost more cruel to his memory to specifically call attention to everything he did in public political life so that people can laugh at you for lying about it in this over-the-top way. Just say he will be missed and your thoughts are with his family and move the fuck on.
Kamala saying that he was a great public servant is a spit in the face to the millions of people whose lives were lost and ruined by Dick Cheney's ghoulish and murderous legacy. No civility with war criminals.
