mrs. cheney, congratulations on your book. a lot of talk about impeachment. i wonder if you can tell us about what james madison would have thought about that and what he viewed as impeachment's role in our political system today, when it should be years and when it shouldn't. liz cheney, you've spent a lot of time as a child riding on the backseat of a car through wyoming listening to the carpenters. i wonder if you can tell us what lessons you brought from your experience person out in front as a person out in front >> well, obviously, i disagree with a lot of policies, procedurally. the effort by president obama to ignore major parts, for example, and alter parts of the obamacare proposition is deferred and acting searching key parts. i think the bill was so bad i think it should've been repealed or amended. there should've been a substitute to deal with all the problems that has surfaced over the past year or two and it shows up by himself, certain parts and provisions aside, i think he has exceeded his constitutional authority. >> i totally agree. it is

mr. cheney about his own role in the iraq war and somewhat contentious exchange. ike allen asked the cheneys about it. >> you and your father co-authored two recent pieces, one in "the wall street journal" where the headline -- and you didn't even need to write the article, the sentence at the top, rarely has a u.s. president been so wrong about so much at the expense of so many. but as you know the main reaction to that piece was people saying takes one to know one including you sitting next to your father having megyn kelly on fox news know enemy really let into y'all. to the point he called a reagan at one point. >> yeah, well, i guess i'd say a couple things about that. i don't think you could say that was the main reaction. >> the vice president's wife, lynn cheney, wanted to comment on my interview with the cheneys. a little later in their chat with politico watch this. >> you know what, i'd like to go back to fox news too. the sort of underlying assumption of your question was that if you ask tough questions of a public figure, that must mean you're being cr

mr. cheney there, who was it that negotiated withdrawal of american forces with no stay-behind agreementnd, in fact, bragged about it in 2009. >> we've now entered into a strategic framework agreement with the iraqis that calls for ultimately the u.s. completion of the assignment and withdrawal of our forces with iraq, all of those things i think by anybody's standard would be -- excuse me. evidence of significant success. >> jon: "significant success unless some other guy... [clearing throat] unless some other guy comes in, abides by the agreement that bush and i [clearing throat] negotiated. if someone did that it would be tantamount to america rolling over on its back, showing its belly and then are you urinatinn itself. [clearing throat] is america finally tired of dick cheney's disingenuous blame game. >> time and time again history as proven that you got it wrong. you said there was no doubt saddam hussein had weapons and we would be greeted as liberators. with almost 4,500 american lives lost, there what do you say to those who say you were so wrong about sow much at the expense o

mr. cheney might be vice president again, they might appreciate an official u.s. position against invasion. second somebody we can tell the chinese that even if there is unification, no american military forces will be stationed north of 38th parallel. as to sticks, we have to look at the lopsided trade relationship with china. access to the u.s. markets is not guaranteed by the u.n. charter. north korea may not be quite as dangerous as other states because it is not as ambitious as iran. it seeks only to oppress its own people. but with a an erratic government, shown to be even more erratic in the last six months, and a growing nuclear stockpile, we have every reason to try to trim the danger posed by north korea. yield back. >> thank you. gentleman yields back. i'd now like to introduce our distinguished panel here this afternoon. glen davis, the ambassador. special representative to secretary of state for north korea policy. he was appointed in january 2012 to facilitate high-level engagement with other -- our other six-party talk partners. he serves as a senio

mr. cheney said chairman frank stopped it. we were in the minority. the republican party told the house in 1995 through 2006, it was entirely their decision not to pass any legislation regulating fannie and freddie. i was against it in 2003. by 2005 i switched my position. the gentleman of pennsylvania alluded to an increase in the affordable housing rules. when george bush puts it up over 50 in 2004, i objected. and, in fact, as you can read in hank paulson's book, it wasn't until 2006 when we were on the virge of taking over, that he talked to me and we got fannie and freddie legislation. the republican party had been consistent. from '95 to 2006, they did not negativively about fannie and freddie. >> i remind the chairman that mr. oxley said the white house gave him one-finger salute on dealing with fannie and freddie. >> and in our four years we dud put them into conservatorship and since then the republican party had once again, in control of the house, done nothing about fannie and freddie. >> i yield back. >> it's not a one-finger salute but th

mr. cheney's record. >> kevin, weigh in on the charge that he's a sociopath. >> i'm not a qualified psychologist>> look, substantively paul can disagree with him. i don't think it calls for insults. i don't know about the disease transmission comment. i don't even know where to start with that. it's too early in the morning, but, you know, he makes his points and then he backs them up with what he believes is an evidentiary trail of reason. >> kevin, that's what i wanted you to answer. >> that's what i wanted to you answer. >> he directly answered those questions. >> he did not and i'll ask you directly answer them either. >> did i but go ahead. >> we'll talk about hillary's interview and the path forward. >> does it even matter that dick cheney is speaking out? >> it does, because now people -- >> do people listen to him? >> we did have a good reason to get into the car. were the weapons of mass destruction ever found? >> no. >> was there yellow cake, yes or no? >> that was -- >> he say there was? >> right. >> did he have colin powell go on tv and jump on that brigade. >> chris, you know, look,

dick cheney has challenged president obama's handling of everything from the middle east to the border crisis. but on whether mrama should be impeached cheney told cnn's jake tapper, no. >> your successor as vice president nominee sarah palin recently called for the impeachment of president obama. what do you think about that? >> i'm not prepared at this point to call for the impeachment of the president. i think he's the worst president my lifetime. i fundamentally disagree with him. i think he's doing a lot of things wrong. i'm glad to see the house republicans are challenging him legally at this point. but i think that gets to be a bit of a distraction just like the impeachment of bill clinton did. everybody could get geared up to have a big fight over it but it wasn't going any place. i think at this point that we got to aggressively pursue sound policies, we got to advocate those things we believe in and think they are vital to the future of the republic. >> cheney defended the bush's administration actions in iraq saying i want left behind a stable country and the blame on the current crisis rests on mali

life of casey anthony since the acquittal on that first degree murder charge is her attorney cheney mason. mr. mason, thanks for taking the time to join us. >> certainly. >> so you and i spoke at length almost daily i would say during the coverage of this case and i remember so well how close the entire defense team seemed to be to casey anthony at a time when she was arguably and even voted the most hated woman in america. what did you know that we all didn't across the country that endeared you so much to casey? >> well, we got to be with her and talk with her, you didn't. liz and the rest of the team were conscious of her daily worries, her anxieties, her needs, her emotions and we were just constantly with her. so getting to know her is getting to understand her and realize that she is a human being that does not deserve the criticism that she's received. she had a trial, she was acquitted and there's still people that just won't accept that. she's a very likable and personable individual if you have a chance to know her and unfortunately the world hasn't had a chance to know her. the wor

dick cheney joins me now. mr. vice president, thanks for being here. >> it's good to be here today. >> i have to ask you about this. news week reporter lay yeah goodman tweeted according to a senior goldman sachs official in a private talk you told top brass while you were still vice president the plan was to invade iraq and iran together and cheney told goldman sachs bankers is not doing a dual attack was his biggest regret. the statement was met with stunned silence. is that true? >> never happened. >> never happened? >> no. >> is that a roo he gret of yours not talking iraq and iran at the same time? >> iran is a special place with respect to the nuclear capability. i was a strong believe if we had to we should use nuclear force to stop iran from getting. >> we never got to that point. goldman sachs, i don't mean to knock the firm. i've got good friends there but i never had a session where i did that with anybody. >> a new poll shows 71% of the american people think going into iraq was not worth it. you've bee

cheney wrote a long essay. they say rarely has a u.s. president been so wrong about so much at the expense of so many. too many times to count mr. obama has told us he's ending the wars in iraq and afghanistan as though wishing. his rhetoric has come crashing into reality. watching the isis jihadist take territory once secured by american blood is final proof that america's enemies are not decima decimated. they are emboldened and on the march. rarely has a major american newspaper published that was so thoroughly shameless. again what is the cause? what was the catalyst of the instability that racks iraq today? the simple answer is the one that cheney and his daughter don't want to mention. the unnecessary misguided and frankly immoral war launched by the united states in 2003. we destabilized iraq. in many respects, we destabilized the larger region. and misfortune of barack obama is that he inherited this catastrophe created by the previous administration. >> even cheney once thought that it would be a serious mistake to occupy baghdad. this is dick cheney in 1994 reflecting on the first iraq war when he was secretary of defe

mr. vice president, four years ago you believed you were dying. this your book -- since we're holding occupy books here -- "heart," which you wrote with your heart surgeon and liz cheney, you said by the beginning of june 2010, i was approaching end stage heart failure. i found it increasingly difficult to carry out any tasks around the house, i was losing my appetite, and -- this is very cheney -- i wasn't fearful or anxious about my situation, i'd lived a wonderful life and now it was ending. how do you feel now? [laughter] >> wrong again. [laughter] no, i -- it was, i wrote that very seriously. it was a very serious moment. it obviously comes up from time to time. i did believe i'd reached the end of the line, and it was, as i said in the book, it was not frightening. i was at peace, and it was more difficult for my family to consider than it was more we to consider. for me to consider. the miracles of had earn medicine, one night 20 units of blood and installed a pump, then i got the transplant thanks to a donor. so every day when i wake up, you know, i've got a smile on my face, thankful for a day i never thought i'd see again. it's, it really affects your sense
