The lying never stops, it just comes thick and fast

Big Brother's apparently no fan of Dick Cheney:

Cheney is one of the most vile people I have ever seen on the political stage. He is now accusing the New York Times of muddying the issue of Saddam's having had anything to do with 9/11 with what Cheney claims has been the administration's claim all along that he had only "longstanding ties" to Al Qaeda! The article in the Times about Cheney's accusations reviews its coverage, making a point-by-point case that the Times was perfectly clear when it was discussing the issue of Saddam and 9/11 and when it was discussing the issue of Saddam and Al Qaeda. Of course, the right wing will continue to take the big liar's word for it and bellow on about how the liberal media as embodied in the New York Times is distorting what the Bush administration has been saying. Never mind that it was Cheney who said that it's "not surprising" that people think that Saddam had something to do with 9/11 (this is clarification?), or that the president, in his letter to Congress right before the war in Iraq, included retaliation for 9/11 as one of his legitimate reasons for going to war. So, of course, Cheney is lying, and talking out of that side of his mouth that appears to do all the lying, er, I mean talking. But the rightwingers will all start crying about how the liberal media distorts everything. Will they go to the source? Will they read the Times article and see how very clear it is? Of course not. So Cheney's vile mission is accomplished. On second thought, scratch my first statement. Cheney has no peer. He is the single most vile person I have ever seen on the political stage. And that's including George W. Bush.
