Dick Cheney's memoir will be released Aug. 30, the AP reports, and his daughter says it's full of "very strong views." In My Time: A Personal and Political Memoir will "certainly" include discussion of the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks, adds Liz Cheney, who collaborated on the book. But the cover, which features Cheney standing in the White House Cross Hall, has Rachel Maddow upset.

Cheney is "in the same suit and the same shirt and the same tie and the same flag pin, standing in the exact same place where Barack Obama announced the death of Osama bin Laden," she said last night. The cover “pictorially makes him the guy who killed bin Laden." Watch Mediaite's video. (More Dick Cheney stories.)
