Cheney Continues Mideast Tour

HeadlineMay 11, 2007

Vice President Dick Cheney is in Abu Dhabi today following a two-day visit to Iraq. On Thursday, Cheney addressed a gathering of U.S. troops in Tikrit.

Vice President Dick Cheney: “Many of you have had your deployments extended, and that puts an unexpected hardship on you and your families. I want you to know the extension is vital to the mission. The Army and the country appreciate the extra burden that you carry.”
