Cheney Joins GOP Criticism of Democrats
Nov 17, 6:12 AM (ET)- By MARY CLARE JALONICK

Mr Cheney, with your 20+ poll ratings, we the American people do not put a lot of stock or credibilitiy in your comments, "Bring it On".

WASHINGTON (AP) - Vice President Dick Cheney is joining President Bush and other Republicans in accusing Democrats of foul play for asserting that the administration misrepresented intelligence to build support for taking the nation to war in Iraq.

Cheney said Wednesday the accusation is "one of the most dishonest and reprehensible charges ever aired in this city."

"Some of the most irresponsible comments have, of course, come from politicians who actually voted in favor of authorizing force against Saddam Hussein," Cheney told the Frontiers of Freedom Institute, a conservative policy group.

"I agree with the vice president," Bush said Thursday in South Korea when asked about Cheney's remarks. "I think people ought to be allowed to ask questions. It is irresponsible to say that I deliberately misled the American people.

4. We were even told they were going to do this.
I find it quite humorous that Bush and others are spending so much time saying "I did NOT lie us into war." Brings back that oldie but goody, "I am not a crook."

3. Dick Cheney: either thoroughly corrupt, or thoroughly incompetenent.
Nothing worse for a man who has reached Dick's stature than to spend his last days realizing that throughout time, people will grow to hate him more, than they already do.

Essentially that is what he is TRYING to do to DEMOCRATS: bounce them off the political screen.

IT AIN'T WORKING TRICKY DICKY!

BOO! GO AWAY! YOU AIN'T SCARING US ANYMORE!

YOUR SHITTING LIES CAN'T GET US NO MORE! (actually they never did)!

7. I saw parts of his speech
He was so disgusting! Dressed in his tux and spewing lies and hatred. I had to turn it off.

8. Dick has a lot to answer for


He knows his jig is up. He's a drag on the Repugs. He's a treasonous war profiteer. If you think ANY Repug wants to have him next to them in 2006 when they are campaigning... he's poison at this point.

Time to take back the artificial heart that we paid for with our tax money.
