Polite words after someone kicks the bucket, whoever they may be, is politics, understandable.
That said, it does seem like she went out of her way to lay it on thick, didn’t she? With a nasty synthetic aftertaste to it. She chose her words carefully and it looks like her kissing the boot of a fucking goddamned sick soulless monster.
Here’s my obituary for cheney:
He shot a man in the face, then abused his tremendous privilege to avoid police questioning for 36 hours, after he’d had time to sober up, even as he got hundreds of thousands of people killed by kicking a hornet’s nest in the Middle East, all for oil profit of his Halliburton and Clearwater buddies.
Rest not, but wallow in shit and eternal damnation,
Dick “Why Don’t You Go FUCK YOURSELF?!!” Cheney
I think polite words are fine, but when she started praising him, that was simply inappropriate. Either she actually believes what she said or she was lying about the praise. Offering condolences to the family alone would have sufficed.
She’s basically an '80s republican so I’d say the praise was genuine. The fact that we were forced to choose between her and the orange fascist wasn’t really a choice. It was literally the lesser of two evils and a lot of people decided not to choose because of it. Which is why we are here.
As much blane as republicans have for how fucked up things are right now, democrats share a good portion of the blame for shoving this tool down our throats.
And before you all start in with the “if only you had bothered to vote”. I fucking did vote. It didn’t end up mattering.
The “Not Voters” were such an insignificantly small portion of voters (ie, people who usually vote but abstained or voted 3rd party in 2024) that even if every one of them voted for Kamala, she still would have lost. Her failure was instead due to the Democrats fundamental refusal to see that the status quo does not work for regular people.

What did US politicians say when Gaddafi was murdered? Honest question
Edit: I looked up what Obama had to say when Gaddafi was murdered:
"Today, the government of Libya announced the death of Muammar Qaddafi. This marks the end of a long and painful chapter for the people of Libya, who now have the opportunity to determine their own destiny in a new and democratic Libya.
For four decades, the Qaddafi regime ruled the Libyan people with an iron fist. Basic human rights were denied. Innocent civilians were detained, beaten and killed. And Libya’s wealth was squandered. The enormous potential of the Libyan people was held back, and terror was used as a political weapon"
