Durbin calls Cheney 'delusional'

[bigtree]

Thu, Jan. 25, 2007

WASHINGTON - Vice President Dick Cheney is "delusional" about what's happening in Iraq, the Democrats' top Senate vote-counter said Thursday.

During the Senate Democratic leadership team's weekly briefing with reporters, Durbin cited a television interview from a day earlier in which Cheney told CNN "there's been a lot of success" in Iraq and rejected the idea that the situation was beyond control.

"To have Vice President Cheney suggest that we have had a series of enormous successes in Iraq is delusional," Durbin said. "I don't understand how he can continue to say those things while the president calls them 'slow failure'."

1. OK, let's do a head count.

President of the United States: delusional, paranoiic, megalomaniacal

Vice President: See President

Uh oh . . . .

2. Delusional

There really isn't anything else to say ... except that if he's not delusional he's sticking to the lie to wring every cent he can out of the hellish chaos he and the Chimp have created

3. Durbin speaks the truth

8. Has anybody looked into the meds Cheney is taking?

The guy has to be on some, probably several. I really think we need to have him submit to a brain scan to see if what's up there is still completely functional. I'm serious about that. If this man has had a blood pressure problem for a long time he may well have complications brought on by his meds that damaged his brain. In any case his competency is questionable to say the least.

9. Iraq is making Cheney and his associates rich beyond belief

So it's got to be an enormous success for them.
