Dick Cheney thinks the sun of history is beginning to shine on his former boss.

Speaking at a groundbreaking ceremony for the George W. Bush presidential center in Dallas, Cheney said that "history is beginning to come around" to a rosier view of Bush's presidency.

Cheney asserted that history's view of Bush is colored by the passage of time and that "judgments a little more measured."

Americans "can tell a decent, goodhearted stand up guy when they see him," he added.

Bush, he said, didn't "put on airs" and could "walk with kings, yet keep the common touch."
