Republicans Push Back Against Cheney Legacy Tour

Recently we’ve heard an awful lot from Dick Cheney, considering that widely loathed former Vice Presidents tend to lay low. Turns out some Republicans aren’t thrilled with the trend:

Congressional Republicans are telling Dick Cheney to go back to his undisclosed location and leave them alone to rebuild the Republican Party without his input. [...] Rep. John Duncan Jr. (R-Tenn.) said, “He became so unpopular while he was in the White House that it would probably be better for us politically if he wouldn’t be so public…But he has the right to speak out since he’s a private citizen.”

I’m not sure that voting no on everything and calling for a spending freeze really qualifies as “rebuilding” but I suppose recognizing that people don’t like Dick Cheney shows that we’re all living in a common universe.
