Revision as of 18:55, 21 April 2013

Current Vice-President of the United States, former Secretary of Defence under George H W Bush and White House Chief of Staff under Gerald Ford.

House Intelligence Committee

"Cheney had been a consumer of intelligence in the Ford White House, so he would bring a basic familiarity to his work on the Committee. But oversight required much greater knowledge. So Cheney began to study. He bought a series of books that had been recently published by the Consortium for the Study of Intelligence and edited by a Professor at Georgetown University, Roy Godson. Cheney scribbled his thoughts on the inside flap of one of those books, Intelligence Requirements for the 1980s, Elements of Intelligence. [1]
