Tom Ridge: Cheney is Wrong about Obama
In an interview airing this Sunday on CNN's "State of the Union," former Bush Administration Homeland Security Secretary Tom Ridge told John King that he thinks former Vice President Dick Cheney is wrong in his assertion that the Obama administration has made the country less safe. Ridge also expressed disappointment in President Obama's characterization of the Bush administration.

KING: You had the intelligence. You served in a very sensitive position in those days after 9/11. Do you believe we are less safe today, because of steps taken by President Obama?

RIDGE: I do not.

KING: You disagree with Dick Cheney then?

RIDGE: Yeah, I disagree with Dick Cheney. But I also disagree with the approach both men are taking. <...>

-----

The full interview, in which Ridge discusses Sen. Arlen Specter's senate seat and criticizes Rush Limbaugh, will air Sunday.

4. It seems like Lawrence O'Donnell was the only one out there and he's just one guy.
He was really booked this week. I saw him everywhere, even this morning on GMA with that hideous Liz Cheney.

2. Maybe we should raise the terror alert level
I hear that works when you want to distract from your political foes.
