NEW YORK — The next book by former Vice President Dick Cheney is aimed directly at President Barack Obama.
Cheney's
"Exceptional: Why the World Needs a Powerful America" will be published
Sept. 1 by Threshold Editions, the publisher announced Tuesday. The
book, co-authored by Cheney's daughter Liz Cheney, contends that Obama
has abandoned a decades-long tradition of American global leadership. In
a statement issued by Threshold, a conservative imprint of Simon &
Schuster, the former vice president said Obama had "significantly
diminished" U.S. power at a time of a "rapidly growing" terrorist
threat.
Cheney,
a Republican, has been an emphatic critic of Obama, a Democrat,
recently calling him the worst president in his lifetime. Cheney's
previous books include the memoir "In My Time" and "Heart," about his
long battle with cardiac disease.
