Liz Cheney Weighs Political Bid

Published December 24, 2015

The Washington Times

Former Vice President Dick Cheney's daughter, who has emerged as a fierce critic of President Obama's foreign and national security policies, said Monday that she is seriously considering a run for political office.

"It's something I very well may do," Elizabeth "Liz" Cheney told The Washington Times' "America's Morning News" radio show.

Ms. Cheney, 42, a lawyer and State Department appointee who worked on the 2008 Republican presidential campaign, has attracted national attention as a chief defender of the George W. Bush administration's policies -- strongly endorsed by her father -- on enhanced interrogation methods.

Ms. Cheney said calls for a congressional probe into reports that her father ordered the CIA to hide information from Congress appear to be an attempt by Capitol Hill Democrats to give political cover to embattled House Speaker Nancy Pelosi.
