Cheney seems to have a little problem in differentiating fact from fiction. Just recently, in a sermon to the choir (re: interview with Rush Limbaugh) Captain "I can make up the facts if I want to it's my party" Cheney reasserted that Al-Qaida was in Iraq before, during and after the invasion. Quaint. More so since the Defense Department simultaneously released a report saying explicitly that Al-Qaida was not, that's right not, associated at all with Saddam and his regime.

What's most annoying, and the source of this rant, is just how blandly Cheney can lie and how smug he is in pandering to an audience that wants to believe him at all cost. On top of that it's the fact that not only does he know it's a lie, but he's so crude as to try and propagate it while the government he works for is publishing factual data to the contrary. Clearly he knows the people he's posturing to are idiots and retards, since no one else could possibly believe his claims in the face of published fact.

At a certain point you have to feel sorry for the Republicans. Their elected leaders obviously think so very little about their ability to reason that they don't even bother to window-dress the bullshit.
