Trickier Dick still lying

"Cheney's audience is people who care about substance, and when he talks they listen, and the base, who wants to see him fight, and when he fights they follow," said Mary Matalin, an informal Cheney adviser. She said what has hurt Bush is not Cheney but rather the president's failure to respond to allegations that he lied about Iraq's weapons.

it is completely astounding to me that someone can be so out of touch with what's going on in this country... cheney isn't hurting bush...? aw, c'mon... you must be kidding... half the country thinks cheney and rove have been running the white house all along and that bush is their willing dupe... and what has hurt bush isn't his FAILURE TO RESPOND to allegations of lying, it's the LYING and then the LYING ABOUT THE LYING and then sending the whole team of professional LIARS out to keep the LIES going...
A recent Newsweek poll found that only 29 percent of Americans regard him as honest and ethical. The same poll found that more than one in four Republicans agreed with that dim assessment of Cheney's integrity -- a finding that surprised some top White House aides, who were already concerned about how the public views the vice president.

and yet mary matalin can claim that cheney isn't hurting bush... cheney is the BIGGEST LIAR OF ALL... here's a perfect example from his speech yesterday...
"The terrorists . . . have contempt for our values, they doubt our strength, and they believe that America will lose its nerve and let down our guard," he said.

and he makes that claim in the face of u.s. intelligence statistics that clearly say otherwise...
U.S. intelligence agencies say foreign terrorists represent a minority of the insurgent forces; the vast majority are Iraqis. Classified findings by U.S. intelligence agencies are reflected in a study by Anthony H. Cordesman of the Center for Strategic and International Studies, released yesterday, which estimates that at least 90 percent of the fighters are Iraqi.

what've we've managed to do in iraq is unleash a civil war that is being exacerbated by our presence... we grabbed that tiger by the tail and now god help us because no one else is going to...
