AP analysis says,

When Obama took office, former President George W. Bush went quietly to his new house in Texas, slipped intentionally into anonymity and honored protocol by staying silent about his successor.

But Cheney, widely remembered for heading to undisclosed secure locations at times of national crisis and for working invisibly behind the scenes, has done just the opposite.

What Protocol? I wish Al Gore and Jimmy Carter would stay silent. For that matter, Bill Clinton hasn’t been very silent either. Walter Mondale was a Senator. He certainly wasn’t silent.

What the AP is pushing is that Democrats can speak out after leaving office. Afer all, to a liberal reporter, Democrats  are fighting for good causes. But Republicans should remain silent and not criticize Democrats.

This is why I look for the AP inidacator at the top of “news” stories. AP=Always Pathetic
