Are The Saudis Paying Cheney?

Dick Cheney's been advancing Saudi Arabia's interests for a quarter century. But I do wonder if Dick or Baby Dick is drawing a check?

Maybe It's Time Liz and Dick Cheney Registered Under FARA?

"This whole "Alliance for a Stronger America" schtick seems to do nothing else but lobby for the use of American service members and weapons to serve the interests of our "friends" — presumably Saudi Arabia and Israel — in the Middle East. If they want to advocate for risking US lives and treasure to serve the Saudis, that's their prerogative. But the law — the Foreign Agents Registration Act — requires that " persons acting as agents of foreign principals in a political or quasi-political capacity to make periodic public disclosure of their relationship with the foreign principal, as well as activities, receipts and disbursements in support of those activities." It's probably time for the Cheney's to disclose who they're working for here. No matter how prominently they feature the word "America" in their organization name, they appear to be working for other governments. Given that they're acting like agents of a foreign power, they probably should admit that formally."
