Megan did not lose her mind at all, she was serving two purposes at once: first, she was doing what any good reporter would do asking questions that went to the heart of the issue and, second, she was teeing up all of the criticisms which had been mounted against Cheney and his editorial comment by the left and giving him the platform to hit them out.
You can do that with an experienced and intelligent interlocutor like Dick Cheney or a Ted Cruz but you have to be careful if you try it with a George Bush.
She was doing Cheney a favor, she was giving him a microphone and a megaphone. At the end of the interview she gave him softball questions.
If only the mainstream media behaved him him this way we would be in control the White House as well as the Senate.

I agree with your assessment.
Ask the Looney Tunes questions the left always spews and let him annihilate it.

The kind of thoughtful commentary that originally brought me to FR.
Well done.

Didn’t see the interview, so I appreciate that take on it.
