There was not quite the anticipated smack down from the White House this week when press secretary Robert Gibbs was asked about former Vice President Dick Cheney's comments on "Fox News Sunday" defending the so-called enhanced interrogation techniques that the Justice Department is now investigating.

On Monday, Gibbs simply called Cheney's comments the "same song and dance" seen from the very first day of the Obama administration, adding this kicker: "I'm not entirely sure that Dick Cheney's predictions on foreign policy have borne a whole lot of fruit over the last eight years in a way that have been either positive or, to the best of my recollection."

Now, the DNC is amplifying that latter point in a new television ad that will air on national cable television.

It includes the greatest hits of false Cheney promises, including: "My belief is that we will, in fact, be greeted as liberators"; and, "There is no doubt that Saddam Hussein now has weapons of mass destruction."

The ad does show Cheney saying this week that the "enhanced interrogation techniques were absolutely essential," but rebuts him on that point with another Republican, Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.). It closes with the tag line, "Dick Cheney: Wrong then, wrong now."
