Former Vice President Dick Cheney, on the other hand, has been more than willing to voice his displeasure with the Obama administration’s handling of challenges abroad. In 2009, not even a year into President Obama tenure, Dick Cheney accused him of “dithering” over sending more troops to Afghanistan, saying Obama “seems afraid” to make a decision. In 2012, Cheney called Obama “one of our weakest presidents.” And he’s back now — along with his daughter Liz and a host of other former Bush hands – to herald the “collapse of the Obama doctrine.” This time, though, he’s planted himself on the scene in a more permanent way. Dick and Liz Cheney announced in June the creation of a new 501(c)(4) social welfare group aimed at “reversing” president Obama’s foreign policy agenda. This new group, called the Alliance for a Strong America, is the latest in a long line of sometimes controversial nonprofits run by the Cheneys.
