Liz Cheney on Axelrod’s Claim of No Scandals: It’s the ‘See No Evil Administration’

Cheney If the question ░░░░░░░░ what he s most ░░░░░░░░ of obviously there isn ░░░░░░░░ a lot to choose ░░░░░░░░ in this administration But ░░░░░░░░ goodness sake to sit ░░░░░░░░ and say there have ░░░░░░░░ no scandals and I ░░░░░░░░ watching your last segment ░░░░░░░░ Secretary Rumsfeld talking about ░░░░░░░░ fact they are in ░░░░░░░░ on the national security ░░░░░░░░ This is the see ░░░░░░░░ evil administration hear about ░░░░░░░░ scandal They really have ░░░░░░░░ attitude that if they ░░░░░░░░ it doesn t exist ░░░░░░░░ doesn t exist We ░░░░░░░░ t see it At ░░░░░░░░ level tough it s ░░░░░░░░ scandal in terms of ░░░░░░░░ sort of bad press ░░░░░░░░ is very serious violation ░░░░░░░░ a sacred trust with ░░░░░░░░ American people across the ░░░░░░░░ Whether it s Benghazi ░░░░░░░░ whether it s using ░░░░░░░░ IRS to target political ░░░░░░░░ I think that s ░░░░░░░░ how history is going ░░░░░░░░ judge this president HEMMER ░░░░░░░░ would tick those off ░░░░░░░░ they d probably mention ░░░░░░░░ few more On screen ░░░░░░░░ ObamaCare rollouts If you ░░░░░░░░ your doctor keep your ░░░░░░░░ Like your plan keep ░░░░░░░░ plan IRS targeting Benghazi ░░░░░░░░ and Furious the VA ░░░░░░░░ which was a horrendous ░░░░░░░░ for our veterans and ░░░░░░░░ some it still continues ░░░░░░░░ said our record may ░░░░░░░░ be pristine but it ░░░░░░░░ light years ahead of ░░░░░░░░ administrations What about that ░░░░░░░░ I m not sure ░░░░░░░░ administrations he s talking ░░░░░░░░ but I really do ░░░░░░░░ that if you look ░░░░░░░░ how this administration s ░░░░░░░░ the level of mistruths ░░░░░░░░ the American people I ░░░░░░░░ say is unparalleled at ░░░░░░░░ in recent memory recent ░░░░░░░░ They haven t been ░░░░░░░░ to account by large ░░░░░░░░ of the media they ░░░░░░░░ they can get away ░░░░░░░░ it But as you ░░░░░░░░ something like the VA ░░░░░░░░ and something like Benghazi ░░░░░░░░ is a common thread ░░░░░░░░ runs through the national ░░░░░░░░ issues and the domestic ░░░░░░░░ and that is they ░░░░░░░░ what s necessary to ░░░░░░░░ Barack Obama And they ░░░░░░░░ our national security at ░░░░░░░░ For example something like ░░░░░░░░ not admitting even to ░░░░░░░░ day on the part ░░░░░░░░ some of them that ░░░░░░░░ was a terrorist attack ░░░░░░░░ was a terrorist attack ░░░░░░░░ Islamic terrorists on our ░░░░░░░░ and on our facilities ░░░░░░░░ of claiming for many ░░░░░░░░ weeks and months afterwards ░░░░░░░░ it was caused by ░░░░░░░░ video That somehow he ░░░░░░░░ saying the tide of ░░░░░░░░ was receding and if ░░░░░░░░ admitted that actually we ░░░░░░░░ been attacked by terrorists ░░░░░░░░ put a lie to ░░░░░░░░ notion and it was ░░░░░░░░ middle of the presidential ░░░░░░░░ HEMMER Explain this if ░░░░░░░░ could The Gallup numbers ░░░░░░░░ believe in the past ░░░░░░░░ hit 50 percent approval ░░░░░░░░ know you believe everything ░░░░░░░░ just said but on ░░░░░░░░ screen it s now ░░░░░░░░ 48 approval to disapproval ░░░░░░░░ things considered I think ░░░░░░░░ can be happy with ░░░░░░░░ number like that if ░░░░░░░░ are a commander in ░░░░░░░░ but the question is ░░░░░░░░ is it there Cheney ░░░░░░░░ think frankly he would ░░░░░░░░ to see those numbers ░░░░░░░░ but I think it ░░░░░░░░ go back to a ░░░░░░░░ sort of absence of ░░░░░░░░ on the part of ░░░░░░░░ of the media The ░░░░░░░░ press plays an incredibly ░░░░░░░░ role in our society ░░░░░░░░ president is not covered ░░░░░░░░ he s not held ░░░░░░░░ the same standards that ░░░░░░░░ predecessors have been They ░░░░░░░░ that and they get ░░░░░░░░ with things When you ░░░░░░░░ a situation where the ░░░░░░░░ in chief is putting ░░░░░░░░ national security at risk ░░░░░░░░ he s unwilling to ░░░░░░░░ we are at war ░░░░░░░░ Islamic terrorists and we ░░░░░░░░ an embassy that s ░░░░░░░░ and ambassador killed and ░░░░░░░░ still continue the lies ░░░░░░░░ s what the history ░░░░░░░░ will say They will ░░░░░░░░ about a violation of ░░░░░░░░ trust I think they ░░░░░░░░ talk about dereliction of ░░░░░░░░ They can pretend as ░░░░░░░░ as they want but ░░░░░░░░ don t know that ░░░░░░░░ have seen certainly that ░░░░░░░░ can recall an administration ░░░░░░░░ divorced from reality as ░░░░░░░░ current one is HEMMER ░░░░░░░░ pristine nature continues Cheney ░░░░░░░░ HEMMER Not precisely pristine ░░░░░░░░ Yes, not exactly.”
