Dick Cheney's Rebuttal Speech


Why was Dick Cheney's speech after Obama"s speech treated as relevant news? Lots of unemployed people who are not elected officials have opinions about the issues of the day, but newscasts don't waste their limited amount of time covering them. If anyone feels Cheney deserved coverage because he's a former vice-president, I would point out that Al Gore didn't deliver televised speeches every time George W. wrapped up one of his appearances.
