They're in touch with their OWN reality, thank you very much

think progress has this from darth...
Yesterday morning on CBS’s Face the Nation, host Bob Schieffer asked Vice President Cheney if he agreed with Reid’s statement [see below] Cheney replied that it was a “ridiculous notion.” His rebuttal: “I spend as much time as I can to get out and do other things, be at home in Wyoming or, yesterday, I managed to go shopping with my daughter for a birthday present for granddaughters.”

you can live in your own little world and still go out to the mall and even rub shoulders with the po’ folk… cheney lives entirely within the ideological framework of his own mental landscape and is about as out of touch with what most of us would consider ordinary reality as it’s possible to be… i mean, after all, how many of us keep a biohazard suit available in their car…?
The president is as isolated, I believe, on the Iraq issue as Richard Nixon was when he was hunkered down in the White House.

however, it's important to note that both bush AND cheney ARE in touch, very much so, as a matter of fact... it's what they're in touch WITH that's the problem... they are both working THE PLAN, and quite effectively too, i might add... it's been several days since i've posted their signal to us all of precisely what they would do post-election... remember, this was dated late october LAST YEAR...
In fact, when it comes to deploying its Executive power, which is dear to Bush's understanding of the presidency, the President's team has been planning for what one strategist describes as "a cataclysmic fight to the death" over the balance between Congress and the White House if confronted with congressional subpoenas it deems inappropriate. The strategist says the Bush team is "going to assert that power, and they're going to fight it all the way to the Supreme Court on every issue, every time, no compromise, no discussion, no negotiation."

they may not be in touch with reality as most americans see it, but they are definitely in touch with their OWN reality, thank you very much...
