this seems to be dick cheney running as a goal post in the 2016 race. i feel like he makes many more problems than republicans solve. >> dick cheney doesn't really admit any daylight into the argument about what might have been done differently during the bush years. interestingly he defends bush's positions much more strongly than anybody in the bush family does. george w. bush is silent about them. jeb bush is equivocateing about them. i guess that's not surprising because they were cheney's positions that he sold to bush in ways that we still don't completely understand. >> it's a reminder that dick cheney was the architect of a failed -- well a failed war and a failed foreign policy that has put america in a very very bad place. >> i have never felt more warmly about dick cheney than i did at the news that he was going to inject himself into a policy debate in the republican nomination for 2016. this is just a nightmare for everyone running. it reminds america that the last time they had the white house, terrible terrible things happened and we were

the "wall street journal" says, joan, dick cheney's group will be running ads ahead of 2016. here's what he's selling. quote, mr. cheney's overarching message is that the u.s. needs to assert itself more on the world stage. he wants congress to boost military spending and mr. cheney also wants the next president to increase the number of u.s. troops in iraq. it sounds like an election message for 2004. not 2016. >> yeah. i think democrats are scheduling some of his appearances for him. democrats could not be hamer. democrats could not be happier by his emergence. the idea that he wants to put himself in the center of the campaign. the idea that he wants to hold jeb bush accountable and keep him from saying that what his brother did is a mistake. it is wonderful for democrats. he was less popular. his popularity was in the 20s when he left office. it is not much better now. he is less popular than president george bush. the idea that he wants nike himself the face of republican hawkish policy is great for democrats. >> and even republicans are not unified that he was a great vi

one of the things that made the post 9/11 theories of dick cheney and george bush so extremist is there is no more limitless power that a president han the power he can exercise during a theater of war. on a battlefield, there really is no law. everybody acknowledges that. terrorist say when men take up arms, law false. more is the ultimate expression of lawlessness in limitless powerful stuff on the battlefield, people shoot each other without having trials or due process. everyone agrees that is war to nobody thinks soldiers have to give opposing soldiers a trial before shooting them. that is what war is. what made these post-9/11 theories so radical is the assertion was made for the first time theaters of war were no longer confined to find a physical faces, the battlefield. it was now the case the entire planet was the battlefield. including u.s. soil. therefore, the limitless power that the president can exercise on a battlefield are now no longer confined to physical spaces. essentially the president is omnipotent everywhere because that is where the battlefield is found. what you

dick cheney coming out with a book this fall. you talk about the voices coming out with the debate over privacy? guest: we saw on the sunday morning shows that general hayden is back in talking about the sources issues. cheney seems like an obvious candidate -- the former vice president seems like an obvious candidate for someone who will be in the news again particularly if we see a situation where someone like rand paul probably most likely gains traction in the republican primary process and in the process of trying to get the republican nomination for president in 2016. because obviously senator paul's views on foreign policy and national security issues are so far removed from those of the george w. bush administration that if someone like paul gets traction, you will probably hear more and more from the likes of mr. cheney. host: a few more tweets at we have been talking this morning. silky rights and -- sukie wrightson, whenever anything has worked patriots, freedom, or liberty and its names i am suspicious of the motives

joining me now, the former counsel to dick cheney. what exactly do you think is under threat?eligious institutions that disagree as matter of sort of fundamental faith tenets. >> not churches themselves. >> no i think churches i don't think we're going to be seeing this overnight. i think there will be incrementalism. i think schools, churches charities all of those are probably under threat and it is an alarm that was sounded by the chief justice and justice alito in the disent in these cases. ? they asked and he conceded those others, not churches themselves but religious institutions might very well be gravely affected by this. >> he answered very candidly and said, it is going to be an issue. the question the questions, there are a number of them. the questions that are going to be front and center are the status of religious institutions, universities churches themselves charities, there will be questions about accreditation of colleges. questions about the ability of governments to contract with these organizations. you've already seen a lot of these questions where the

both times, dick cheney said, we don't need it. >> we have a very informed audience today. two questions that any student of foreign relations law would pair together. one is, is the truman u.s. steel case an example of overreach of the presidents in interpreting the constitution, and another question, can you comment on the united states versus curtiss wright export operation and its influence on the law and foreign policy in relation to presidential power. these are two favorite opinions. >> indeed. in 1952, there is a steel strike. harry truman issues an executive order that seizes the steel mills and puts them under government control. the injunction is successful and harry has to give back the steel. the case is nothing but good for the way the government works. those of us who work in the justice department know the point of the steel seizure case is that when a president contravenes a statute -- when congress contravenes statute the president will stop them. the steel seizure principle is, you can stretch statutory authority, but don't defy it. that is very important

it was like two hangars full and there was all of these amazing young american men listening to dick cheney gave a speech to read all of them had really long beards. the president gave remarks off the cuff, full of emotion that he has tears in his eyes and they will not stop clapping and it was in order that they didn't have to obey. since you think you take pictures with everybody and i made my day to come my way to the back of the room and they came up to me and said excuse me argue the press secretary. they know who i am that's amazing. i wanted to make small talk so i asked two questions. the first one i said what made you want to become a navy seal adventure, family tradition for the chance to see the world, what was it and the first says to me now, check they get -- chicks dig it.

dick cheney is back to steer the republicans ahead in 2016. that's right.t has resurfaced in a big way. he is telling the "wall street journal," he is planning a new push to put his foreign policy vision front and center for 2016. on on iran he says the u.s. should be prepared to launch military attacks on nuclear sites. on iraq he is ignored questions about whether we should have invaded iraq and, quote,

might not have a barack obama in the white house and some day we might have somebody more like dick cheneyes up with these programs which are clearly illegal and, in this case un protectproductive but could erode or civil liberties. >> richard a clarke thank you very much for joining us tonight. >>> come up, the duggar family speaks for the first time about sexual molestation within their family. luckily, they were speaking to the friendliest interviewer they could have found. we all enter this world with a shout and we see no reason to stop. so cvs health is creating industry-leading programs and tools that help people stay on medicines as their doctors prescribed. it could help save tens of thousands of lives every year. and that would be something worth shouting about. cvs health, because health is everything. stay still, like a statue! just like a statue. look here! when your day goes on and on you need 48 hour odor protection that goes on clear for no white marks. new secret outlast clear gel. ♪ ♪ time upon a once people approached problems the way same. always start at the starting.

and then dick cheney thought it wasn't tough enough and did not do enough to be intrusive. and he got the house leadership to change it so i then voted against that bill. i certainly agree with getting rid of the meta data the collection by the federal government of every phone call made by everybody. among other things by the way, what do they do with that? the notion that there's anything rational they can do with it, it seems to me a little bit hard. but the notion that the federal government should have every phone call ever made by anybody, a record of it yeah that's pretty intrusive. so i can't tell you exactly how i would have voted on the bill that passed. i did vote against the original one and i would have voted for something that improved it. >> the no votes in the senate were interesting today because they were for different reasons, many of them. you had rand paul voting no because he's opens dollars to anything in any of the bills, he doesn't want us to have any form of the patriot act to continue. then there's rubio voting no because he wanted all of the patr

remember dick cheney saying the gloves are off after 9/11? we have, as joan said fully adequate legal measures if we are presented with a false tradeoff day in and day out, that it's either liberty or security. no, you can have both. and you have to get back to recalibrating post-9/11. >> and that moment i think was a good one. one finger may be back in the glove. when we come back nebraska lawmakers voted to end the death penalty, so why is nebraska's governor still demanding executions? that's next. you are looking at two airplane fuel gauges. can you spot the difference? no? you can't see that? alright, let's take a look. the one on the right just used 1% less fuel than the one on the left. now, to an airline a 1% difference could save enough fuel to power hundreds of flights around the world. hey, look at that. pyramids. so you see, two things that are exactly the same have never been more different. ge software. get connected. get insights. get optimized. your pet... could you love him any more? probably not. but now you can give them ev

wanted to squeeze in -- we will not play the sound byte but over the weekend former vice president dick cheneydent obama and in particular about iraq and the former vice president saying his heart isn't in and if he said i tried to understand what makes president obama tick and frankly i don't know. what do you make of that? >> i think it is an understandable reaction from the former vice president. his world view is very different than president obama's. cheney believes american power has been and continues to be a force for good in the world even up to and including military power when applied properly and he doesn't spend a lot of time worrying if people in some places hate us. these things do preoccupy president obama, however. he believes american power is dangerous and must be applied with care and caution. and maybe more likely to make it worse. so they look at the world and the united states in a very different way. it isn't surprising the way the president looks at it puzzles the former vice president. >> no kidding. and the has been a lot of trading of accusations back and forth. sup

when the hirsch allegations broke, ford listens to dick cheney who advised him to try heading off a congressional inquiry by naming a blue-ribbon national security establishment investigative committee headed by vice president nelson rockefeller. ford justified the rockefeller commission to "new york times" editors by stressing the need to appoint responsible people and restrict the scope of the investigation. the skeletons, he said, included evidence of c.i.a. assassination plots against foreign leaders and their disclosure would blacken the name of every president back to harry truman. was ford blurting out what lawyers call an excited utterance? or was he engaged in a calculated move to blacken the name of democrats along with republicans? whatever his motivation, it was a monumental leak. gripped by the national security mystique that helped explain the media's cool reaction to the hirsch story, "the times" did not print it. but predictably the news ford worried about exposure of assassination plots was passed to daniel short who predictably broadcasted it on tv. so now it was not just the c.
