Cheney: Bad messenger, bad message

So Dick Cheney, with his 36% approval rating, is spending what precious little political capital he has left, to try to prop up the administration's failure in Iraq.

What on earth makes him think anyone will listen or believe him when, by all accounts, he was the driving force to the fudge the evidence and sell the war to the American public? He has zero credibility on this issue.

WashPost report:
Vice President Cheney last night accused Democratic senators who allege that the Bush administration distorted intelligence to justify the war in Iraq of
engaging in "one of the most dishonest and reprehensible charges ever aired in this city."

Speaking before a Washington dinner of the Frontiers of Freedom Institute, a conservative research organization, Cheney said that Democrats who say they were misled by the administration are "making a play for political advantage in the middle of a war."

As Pee Wee might say,
"I know you are, but what am I?"
