In My Time (Abridged): A Personal and Political Memoir Audiobook

" A very good read giving lots of insight into the man we knew as Vice President. Pulling back the curtain we see a man who is conservative, cerebral and methodical - all characteristics that make him seem a little cold from a distance, but more human after reading his thoughts. An excellent read. "

" Visibly a memoir written by a reserved person! "

" This book was written better than Bush's and Rove's books. It was on par with Rumsfeld's book. I came away with 3 thoughts. Powell was deceitful. Rice was a screw-up. Bush left a wounded soldier on the battlefield. "

" Better than i anticipated. There was comparatively little personal information, but numerous and detailed accounts of Cheney's political life which I thoroughly enjoyed, being a fan of political processes and the careful consideration that goes into them. Overall it was very informative and also fairly technical in some aspects, which made it enjoyable for me but might swing some readers in the other direction. "

" He may not be the most popular person today but history will show him to be an incredible asset who served our country well for decades . This book makes that case as it explores his contributions. His story and this book are important. "

" About 75% horsesh%t...25% heart attacks and Saddam was super bad dude. "

" Very interesting history of Dick Cheney's life and behind the scenes in Washington. "

" A typical political memoir. Explained why he took the position he did on many issues, most of the time it made sense and seemed reasonable, but on a few items he seemed like an ostrich with his head in the sand. "

" Excellent read. Tells of a time gone by...only recently. And, of course, of his journey. Recommended. "

" Very interesting book from an evil man. Definitely one-sided but enlightening nevertheless. "

" It would seem that former Vice-President Cheney really fucking hates Condi Rice and Colin Powell and everything that went wrong with Saddam, WMDs, Afghanistan, and Mid-East peace are all their fault. Go figure. "

" Very good book. Loved the insight as to what was happening at the White House and the President on Sept 11th. "

" I expected to be bombarded with opinions on why he did this and why he thought that, but most of the key events in which he was involved were described as "I agreed" or "I disagreed" without much explanation. "

" Pretty bland and straightforward. "

" I can't say my head was exploding as Cheney promised, but this definitely had some interesting moments, particularly as concerns the period from 2001-2008. I also liked the chronological approach in this book much better than the thematic approach of Bush's memoirs. "

" I read the book and still do not like Dick Cheney. Dick Cheney loved Dick Cheney. I would guess that he made a lot of enemies from the Washington crowd and other politicians he worked with after the book was published. This is your choice whether you want to read or not. "

" I found this to be very interesting at times and at other times very self serving on the part of Dick Cheney. "

" I was pleasantly surprised, and really enjoyed this book despite disagreeing with just about everything in it. "

" His upbringing and his effort to change his life are both admirable. I agree with his approach toward North Korea. But seriously, his attempt to rationalize going to war with Iraq, and keeping the troop there, is just pathetic! "

" I read it to understand a man shrouded in mystery, yet when I finished, I found more questions than answers. "

" I expected to be bombarded with opinions on why he did this and why he thought that, but most of the key events in which he was involved were described as "I agreed" or "I disagreed" without much explanation. "

" Whether you like him or hate him, he is one of the most influential and contraversial statesmen of the past three decades. This book is an explanation and defense of his beliefs. It is very well written and is certainly worth your time whatever you may believe. "

" Good read. Gave me an entirely different view of Cheney as compared with the demonization of Cheney that I had from reading main stream media. "

" Unapologetic, passionate memoir from a much maligned public servant. "

" Very good book. Loved the insight as to what was happening at the White House and the President on Sept 11th. "

" About 75% horsesh%t...25% heart attacks and Saddam was super bad dude. "
