CNN's obnoxious "Political Buzz" question came from Dick Cheney's soon-to-be-released memoir, where he detailed a 2007 meeting at which he was the lone voice advocating for bombing a Syrian nuclear reactor. No other person at the meeting agreed, and Israel bombed the reactor months later. CNN's Kyra Phillips noted this and asked "Was Cheney even more of a hawk than we gave him credit for?"
