Cheney has drawn the attention of many with his memoir. Those who have reviewed the book, says it attacks and criticizes the Bush administration and describes Condoleezza Rice as "tearfully admitting" Cheney was right on the war in Iraq. 
In the book, Cheney reserves much of his ire for former Secretary of State, Colin Powell. Powell and his former Chief of Staff Col. Lawrence Wilkerson have attempted to correct the perceived discrepancies with national TV interviews. Wilkerson told ABC News, “Cheney was president for all practical purposes for the first term of the Bush administration” and that Cheney “fears being tried as a war criminal.” 
In his memoir, Cheney claims Powell undermined President Bush writing that Powell thought the proper way to express his views was by criticizing administration policy to people outside the government. Cheney writes about encouraging Powell's removal from the administration after the 2004 election and about Powell's resignation stating that it “was for the best.” 
During the interview she cut right to the heart of the matter saying to listeners, “What's making headlines is Condoleezza Rice and her tearfully admitting‟ you were right.” 
Cheney’s rejected the notion that he was attacking her integrity or the integrity of Colin Powell in his memoir. He claims that he is presenting a “balanced view” saying, “I think that they ought to read the book. As these are not personal attacks.” 
Ingraham then moved on to addressing the current economic meltdown by saying, “Right now given where we are – Obama has increased the deficit exponentially...You would also agree that the more debt we accrue and the more deficit spending that occurs the weaker America becomes and the less influential in many ways on the world scene.” 
Cheney agrees, pointing out that “Obama in a much shorter period of time has added much more debt than we did in the 8 years we were there.” 
Cheney continues by saying, “We have a very serious… I don‟t call it just a deficit problem, but we have a long-term debt problem. We‟ve got to get a handle on our domestic programs and on our entitlement programs in particular.” 
Moving on to other topics, Ingraham says, “You did a fundraiser for Kay Bally Hutchinson. In the fall of 2009, you said, "We westerners know the difference between a real talker and the real deal when it comes to being conservative, Kay Bally Hutchinson is the real deal.” 
Ingraham then asks the former VP, “Do you still think Rick Perry is just a talker?” 
He responds by saying, “I was there to support Kay. She is an old friend…When she announced she was running for Governor of Texas she asked me if I would do an event for her and I was happy to do so. She obviously lost. I don't think that has any bearing on what is going to happen with respect to the republican nomination for president.” 
He continues on saying, “Rick Perry is in the race and I haven't endorsed anybody. I suspect I will support whoever our nominee is…but I wouldn't let my judgments in that gubernatorial primary 2 years ago be determinative on what my attitude will be towards Mr. Perry” 
Ingraham then moves to International matters, asking Cheney, “What do you think about the rise of China?” 
Cheney replies, “I worry about them from a military standpoint. I think they are clearly improving their military capabilities. There are reports in the press about how 
they are heavily engaged in penetrating and hacking our computers and so forth to acquire information.”
