Cheney’s group, Keep America Safe, is out with a new video that casts President Obama’s response to the Christmas Day terror attempt as a parody of the television show “24.”

The video uses unflattering moments from the administration’s response — Gibbs and Napolitano intoning that “the system worked,” Obama golfing — over high-adrenaline music and the sound of a ticking clock.

Stay Informed.

On ABC’s This Week, host George Stephanopoulos confronted Cheney about her hypocritical attack. “As many Democrats and others have pointed out, President Bush waited I think six days before doing much about Richard Reid, the shoe bomber,” he noted. Cheney evaded the question entirely, pretending not to hear it. “The point of that ad,” she said, “was this notion that you cannot win a war if you’re treating it as sort of an inconvenient sidelight.” Watch it:
