Dick Cheney has to show up every couple of years, just to remind us how much we hate him.


But what about the press' reaction to their bumbling of the evidence that led us into Iraq?

"I did say to him that he had been right about the press reaction" to the administration's acknowledgment that the remarks about Iraq seeking uranium in Africa should not have been in Bush's speech, Rice said.

It was a f'ing lie! It was clear to every half-wit that got near it that the evidence showing Iraq tried to purchase uranium from Africa was fabricated (badly) and the only people that "believed" it were telling and spinning other lies to get us involved in that war! This is a perfect example of what I detested about the Bush administration: the worry wasn't about the untruth they inserted into a speech delivered to persuade the country to go to war, whether out of dishonesty or incompetence, but about how it played in the press. Typically, Cheney feels you have no right to an apology, or even an explanation for that matter.
