Pretty positive the lies in that White House involved Cheney lying to and about his NSA, especially the first one.

sure, point is in any prior WH he'd be out the door by now and in that one his head would be on a stick in the South Lawn

I don't agree. People like w/in White Houses all the time. People also lie in interviews all the time.

Yes, but National Security Advisor lying to VP and making him go on TV and repeat lie to his own detriment uniquely bad

No. It's not. Cheney lied about Rice all the time. Rice got stuck batting clean up for that fucker.

Question is what the current pecking order in the WH is and what that means for Flynn's tenure.

I guess, but for last 25 years VP has definitely been pretty near top. Current WH crazy land, but hard to imagine otherwise here

If anything Pence probably actually more important in this Admin because he, you know, has to run all the policy on everything

As opposed to Cheney? Come on. Trump is uniquely bad. You don't need to pretend everything that happens is unique.
