Cheney caught in a Lie
Dick "Bag of Bullshit" Cheney was leaving steaming piles all over the stage, so many that the guys at Media matters are probably still shoveling themselves out of it fact checking the lies. Cheneyy claimed to have never said that Saddam and Al Quaeda were related, there will only be hundreds of statements to the contrary. Told us how fantastic things were in both Iraq and Afghanistan, but the big one was Cheney's assertion that in four years he had only met Edwards last night. Well Atrios has a picture of the Both of them at a prayer breakfast in 2001.
VICE PRESIDENT CHENEY DELIVERS REMARKS AT NATIONAL
PRAYER BREAKFAST FEBRUARY 1, 2001 SPEAKER: VICE
PRESIDENT RICHARD B. CHENEY [*] CHENEY: Thank you.
Thank you very much. Congressman Watts, Senator Edwards,
friends from across America and distinguished
visitors to our country from all over the world,
Lynne and I honored to be with you all this morning.
the media whores were climbing all over themselve and needed drool buckets to keep from sliming each other as they clamored to praise Cheney's performance. I only saw the atrocities unfold on MSGOP, but the Russert/Brokaw Badinage is soemthing to behold. Those guys were tacking right "Cheney was great, very statesman like, etc and Left "Edwards made some pretty good points." Of course if the players were reversed, the media would have been all over the multitude of misrepresentation, or as MoDo put it recently The vermin flying out of Dick's mouth.
[.....Update......]
Just checked out Hardball, and while they havent finished with the transcript, they do have the "initial impressions" gush-athon posted. Cheney showed skill, experience And he showed his Fat Lying Ass off as well, but that wouldn't make
a proper family values heasline. In shusters corner there is a word count (same page as the atraocities)
