CNN: Dick Cheney, A Man Looking for a Getaway Car
He has the look of a bank robber in a heist gone wrong and he's trying to blast his way out.

Read the rest here.

Cheney: Talk of blunders in Iraq is 'hogwash'
Story Highlights• Cheney rejects premise of mistakes hurting credibility on Iraq
• Vice president says question about daughter is "out of line"
• Congressional opposition won't stop plan to increase troops, he says
• Pulling out of Iraq would validate terrorists' strategy, Cheney says


WASHINGTON (CNN) -- Vice President Dick Cheney on Wednesday dismissed as "hogwash" the suggestion that blunders may have hurt the administration's credibility on Iraq and led members of Congress on both sides of the aisle to question President Bush's plan to send more troops to Baghdad.

In an interview with CNN's Wolf Blitzer, conducted a day after Bush delivered his State of the Union address, Cheney was asked to respond to some Republicans in Congress who "are now seriously questioning your credibility, because of the blunders and the failures."

To that, Cheney answered, "Wolf, Wolf, I simply don't accept the premise of your question. I just think it's hogwash."

4. What else would you wash hogs with?
Edited on Thu Jan-25-07 08:48 AM by Hubert Flottz
Halliburton is always the first hog to the trough and you can never wash that stink off of Sore Dick Cheney!

Cheney is a corporate bagman!

Send the Backwash Brigade to Iraq. They love that war, let them go and fight all they want to.

5. Funny, that's not what his boss said:
"In the speech announcing his revised Iraq strategy, Bush acknowledged mistakes, saying he should have increased troop levels earlier."

Are these guys ever on the same page, even for an instant?

It would be a tiny price to be pay to be rid of him, though.
