mrs. cheney. i want to go back to james madison and this is what you have written. scraping his quill across the page madison recorded what seemed to him the essence quote the strongest and sound mind often possesses the weakest and most sickly bodies. the knife cuts sheath as the french expressive. >> guest: he found this in john locke when he was reading and i think for him it was a comfort. epilepsy was so -- such a misunderstood ailment and they 1919th century. it was thought to be the result of demonic possession. it was thought to be the result of sin and that made having seizures even more traumatic than the events themselves and i should pause for a minute. i don't think that madison's seizures were always up for kind that made him fall to the ground i think what he describes seems to fit very well with the partial complex epilepsy. as he described it the intellectual, the intellectual senses are suspended, which is exactly what people say who have had partial complex seizures, the tempor

mrs. cheney. i would like to know if you agree with president obama's policies and your opinion on frankie and in the controversy that it's created. >> guest: you are not surprised one of the few decisions i agree with his drilling in the arctic. i think for our team is the way we've seen with energy independence which could not be more important to our national security. even as i say those things, one of the things i'm proud of dick for having done this for setting aside of the million acres in the west and wyoming in particular for preserving wildlife and preserving nature. i don't think we have to either choose to be green or not green. we need to evaluate it situation by situation. postcode doug sends an e-mail and a native of orange two miles from mount hillier. in your research, did you find out infant madison traveled from point conway to montpelier? why no credit for the bill of rights and how do you believe madison was the look on to shine today? traveling as an insolent, why no credit

i would like to say to mrs. cheneybeen for your service and a comment on the japanese internment during the second world war. i believe the colombian government at the time was clearly compromised by activities in that country and i think roosevelt was looking at that and that is what caused the internment although i don't agree everybody should have been interned. they bent over did it. i think that was the fear. >> guest: that is interesting. >> caller: i would like to pass on to your husband thanks for standing up and speaking about the administration and the failure of what they've done to stand up for america. >> guest: thank you yet i will pass that along. >> host: final word from sarah tilghman theatre, washington. >> caller: thank you. i got to read up her tenet of your books. i am a reader. i unfortunately have my career cut out early. i didn't have a chance to do what i wanted to. i've been very picture article my life. i've been active in politics and getting people like you done this sort of thing. what do

mr. cheney has a new book out "exceptional," which he co-authored with his daughter liz. recently with the cheneys. it's her first interview for cnn. >> thank you for joining us. a great addition to cnn. >> thank you. >> this is a fascinating interview. >> dick cheney, conservative hero to some people, darth vader to others. he was provocative, he is blunt. he goes -- we talked about everything from hillary clinton's e-mails. he is very harsh about that. we talked about the wild presidential campaign and donald trump and the whole republican field. but we started the interview with what he really thinks about the man he likes to go toe to toe with, president obama. i say president obama, you say? >> i say a president whose policies are doing lasting damage to the united states of america. >> reporter: the iran nuclear deal? >> terrible deal. definitely ought to be rejected by the congress. >> reporter: should guantanamo stay open? >> yes. >> reporter: any regrets about going into iraq? >> no. >> reporter: no apologies? >> no apologies. >> reporter: classic dick cheney, on

mr. cheney to a "t." to ever express remorse, error, manipulative, dishonest -- this point about isis, for example. isis exists because of the invasion of iraq. iran is stronger because of the invasion of iraq. we invaded iraq because mr. cheney twisted intelligence to try to persuade the country to invade a country that was no threat to america. now he hits there and actually has the gall to try to blame president obama for trying to manage the damage. >> ari, is it irresponsible of the former vice president not to accept any responsibility as paul says? >> well, the question put to him was about isis. and i think it's irrefutable. the fact that isis exists is created because of the vacuums that president obama has created. the question was not, do you have any apologies you would like over the eight years you were in office? very different issue. >> does seem like dick cheney is washing his hands of some responsibility. first of all, he talks about the surge. he doesn't talk about what came prior to the

mr. cheney, it is one thing to not have a pulse any more.ut to not have a conscience is unconscionable. i mean guys, he's just like some creature who just makes [bleep] up. and look, i know it sounds like i'm picking on dick cheney, i know, actually i have to admit, some of this is my fault. no, no no. i created dick cheney. all right, or more precisely, i summoned him. i know. i know, i know it sounds crazy. guys, guys, okay. this is a story i never told anybody. and please don't tell anybody this is just between us, america, okay. all right so, i was like nine areas old at the time and i was on a-- i was on a hike in the woods and i kind of got separated from a scout troop. and that's when i met the talking dog that i found out later was a shape shifting witch. but that's besides the point, really. but anyway, the dog lead me to an ancient cave. and then he had me repeat a spell in a language i didn't understand, okay. but in my defense, the dog was very persuasive. yeah. >> summoned the dark lord from the ether an will you get lots of toy

mr. cheney. >> look what we have today. there's an argument you wouldn't have the whole situation with iran today if you didn't have that decision. >> iraq was the only buffer against iraq or israel. >> it changed the dynamics of the region. >> how about europe. everything he be changed because of that stupid war in iraq. >> listening to those arguments that are now being resurfaced by him and the prime minister of israel and some of the republican party in congress today. and they're trying to sell us the same -- >> what do you think were the worst mistake of people against the deal having made? >> prime minister netanyahu coming here in march to make that speech. >> against this country's government. >> it made it far less of a rational decision about the rational deal and the policy. a huge mistake by opponents of the deal. >> i don't think john boehner's a bad guy. but i think that was a bad decision. >> bad mistake. >> when cheney came into office there were zero centrifuges in iran. when he left there was something li

mr. cheney's new book "exceptional why the world need a powerful america." iew. >> you in the book blame the spread of isis on president obama. he says, it is your fault that bush-cheney left the region unstable. >> well, i think he is wrong. look at the record. we had a situation in which by the time we got through the surge in '07, '08, president bush made a courageous correct decision. iraq was in good shape when we left office. and barack obama said as much. what happened basically was they failed to follow through. they withdrew as quickly as possible. and left no stay-behind force there. they created a vacuum. the vacuum was filled by isis. >> that's one interpretation. tune in for more of the interview tomorrow night here on 360. meantime, tonight after all the hopes that small part of an airliner wing may be part of the missing mh370, a significant new development tonight. tuners... rs and eveno were just as simple? thanks to angie's list, now it is. start shopping online... ...from a list of top rated providers. visit angieslist.com today. rubut then

mr. cheney was talking about and you can see from his words that you can create chaos. once you pull out the top of a government, unless there's a structure under it to give security and structure to the society, you can expect a mess. we saw that totally in libya, perfect example n.egypt, we thought it was going to be good. we got rid of mubarak and now we have another general in charge of the country after a detour with the muslim brotherhood, so be very, very careful when you try to impose your system or your thinking on a society that's been around for thousands of years, and it is not really like us. >> i want to move to some domestic issues here. this has been a tumultuous year in race relations and the most poignant woemoment was in charleston. i want to show a clip of the president of what he said during the memorial service in charleston. >> maybe now we realize how racial bias can infect us even when we don't realize it so we're guarding not just against racial slurs, but we're also guarding against the subtle impulse to call johnny back for a job interview bu

mr. cheney's lecture. " he said supporters of the iran deal are probably more grateful that applauding cheneyrom the was dr. paul wolfowitz . senator tom cotton in the second row, were michele bachmann and scooter libby. surely, those who would look to see congress under the nuclear agreement would expect to see rolling out cheney would save the cause. the former vice president wouldn't seem to have the best track record. house, before mr. cheney spoke, putting together a video to make that point.

mr. cheney: i know that no nation in history has agreed to own destruction.a is asking the u.s. congress to do is unique, historically and dangerously unique. the results could well be catastrophic. matt: the white house responded by posting a campaign style past aontage of cheney's myth about the iraq war. the video says cheney is wrong is wrong now, and is likely more amusing than dick cheney's speech itself. representative nancy pelosi of california spoke to bloomberg about hillary clinton. she says the issue of her e-mail server is being overblown. ms. pelosi: i feel very she did not send any .ail that was not classified i do think the other side is trying to make something of it. matt: clinton told the associated press she has nothing to apologize for about her use of the private e-mail server. first everi's performances in china have been shot through the american rockers were set to play shanghai and beijing this month, but the shows were canceled because the band used a backdrop image of the dalai lama in a taiwan show in 2010. rock band have been nix

mr. vice president, you say that president obama never put a serious nuclear option on the table, but you and president bush, the bush be/cheney administration dealt with iran for eight years. i think it's their to say there was never any real serious military threat. and during your time, let's put these numbers up on the screen, iran went from zero known centrifuges in operation to more than 5,000. so in fairness, didn't you leave the bush cheney administration leave president obama with a mess? >> i don't think of it that way. in fact, there was military action that had an impact on the iranians when we took down saddam hussein. there was a period of time when they stopped their program because they were afraid what we did to saddam we were going to do to them next. when we talk saddam did, gadhafi surrendered his nuclear program. proliferation in the region. >> but the sentfry futures went from zero to 5,000. >> that happened on obama's watch, not our watch. >> no, by 2009, they were at >> right. i think we did a lot to deal with the arms control problem in the middle east. we signed on with the our international friends a

mr. obama's withdrawal of our forces in the region led to this european refugee crisis. here's former vice president dick cheney on fox news sunday. >> he's created a huge vacuum, he's made it clear he's not going to use military force to an effective extent. the vacuum that was created once the caliphate was formed and so forth and the enormous violence in syria contributed directly to the refugee crisis. i think when the u.s. played a major role in the region, when we were there on a significant basis, it would have been much easier to manage this situation. lou: president obama now has at least 41 senate democrats supporting his nuclear deal with iran. that is enough to potentially block a vote in the senate on the resolution of disapproval. however, the house of representatives expected to pass the disapproval resolution and this week. we're coming right back. much more ahead, stay with us. >>> russia's presence and influence in the middle east is rising. the white house can't figure it out. >> we don't know exactly what they're doing. >> reporter: what is putin's next move? what does it mean for the united

former vice president dick cheney and his daughter liz cheney, co-authors of the brand new book "exceptional, why the world needs a powerful america." mre president do you believe senator kerry is an honest man? >> i think he has made othergáus promises that he didn't carry through. he said, you know, inspections any time, anywhere. that was sort of the standard going. in but now as you said, bill, we have got 24 days during which they can delay the actual on set of inspections. he doesn't talk at all with respect to the problem that this agreement will precipitate. i you think a nuclear arms race in the middle east. our friends out there, the saudis and the elm rites, others are seeing iran ultimately acquire nuclear weapons will he legitimized by the united states. >> they will make the deal, continue it but have to seek their own anyway. what i am trying to get at here is, there is two schoolings of thought. one that the obama administration and john kerry -- and john kerry knows the world. he knows. he deals with these guys, expert in foreign affairs, they sincerely believe this is good for america. that's one point of view. the ot

critics, former vice president dick cheney and his daughter, former assistant secretary of state have written "exceptional, why the world need as power will america." mr president you compare iran's deal to chamberlain and munich in 1938. really? >> if you look what happened with respect to the iranian deal the only inners are the iranians getting everything they asked for. the losers are the united states, the friends and allies of the united states in the region, israelis, saudis and others and the overall outcome will be to shift significantly the balance of power in that part of the world to the iranians and they will dominate not because of the ago deal but because of the lifting of the embargo and ballistic missiles. it is a big deal and major, major defeat in my behind in terms of our position in the region. >> the is the state kerry said if the united states backs out now our european allies in the u.n. will lit their sanctions and we will be all alone. shear a clip. >> it and clear that if we reject this plan the multi-lateral sanctions regime will start to unravel and the pressure on iran will lessen and our negotiating leverage will diminis

cheney. he crushed me. that's difficult for an analyst to have them question every you say. if you don't have the courage to stand-up and say i'm sorry mrry mr. general. >> crushed you how? >> the conversations we have had and this has been documented about the extend of saddam hussein's perspective. his was different than ours at the agency. he came to the agency and we had difficult conversations. i don't think it's wrong, it's important to have a voice. i heardage uses say i don't feel like i have a voice and then complain. you can't have it both ways. >> did you feel the political pressure coming to you, i ask this because it's instrucktive. thenned to go to war and you told them you didn't think it would hold up? >> it was slightly different. they wanted to go to war. the white house wanted to get rid of saddam hussein. our answer is, that's a political decision if you want to put american lives at risk. if you want to use intelligence this way, we can't back you. >> that's the concern, right? >> yeah. that's right. just quickly, again, analyst complain, the inspector general has to figure out whether the commanders had the intent
