Dick Cheney: "No one listens to him."

i thought i was going to grow old and die before i heard this kind of right-on response to cheney, rove, and the talking-point media circus...
DICK CHENEY, VICE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES: The worst possible thing we could do is what the Democrats are suggesting, and no matter how you carve it, you can call it anything you want, but basically, it is packing it in, going home, persuading and convincing and validating the theory that the Americans don't have the stomach for this fight.

BLITZER: All right. You want to respond to the vice president, Senator Biden?

BIDEN: No, I don't want to respond to him. He's at 20 percent in the polls. No one listens to him. He has no credibility. It's ridiculous.

i'm no fan of joe biden but, credit where credit is due... putting the words "dick cheney" and "credibility" in the same sentence pushes the concept of oxymoron to an entirely new plateau...

(thanks to atrios...)
