absolutely, with a lie about private matters to cover up a personal weakness, being not near so despicable as a lie about national security, that was used as 'evidence' to sent our troops off to die in a war that was a financial boon to the liar himself.

no argument from me on that at all.  lying is wrong but some lies are worse than others, with Chaney's lie being one of the worst.

Ah, the old bait and switch (or rather switch and bait in this case). Classic.

You became a conservative when Carter let the Iranians "slap you around", but when Reagan let them do the same ... even far more, you ignore it.

*Golf clap* How very conservative of you.

Speaking of bait and switch, what's Iran have to do with the Iraq/Al Qaeda connection?

nice sidestep. we've already been here before though.  running out of new places to duck the issue.

just a reminder, here is the actual issue-

the point isn't if the links exist or not. (links to meetings have been shown, but any suport, or agreement comeing from these has not IIRC)

the point is that the man said the links where pretty well proven, then when the 9/11 comission says there is no meaningful link, he lies out his bellybutton and says he never said there was a link. then they run the tape showing where he did say it.

regardless of the link or not, he's a lying piece of crap. he's not lying about a BJ he's lying about 'evidence' that sent our men to die.

even if you could somehow find proof that SH actually flew one of the 9/11 planes, Chaney would still be a liar, because he denied saying something that there is proof he had said.

I don't have to provide proof.  The issue was TheDudeVant said the commission said there was no connection between Al Qeada and Iraq, when in fact they said the opposite.

When Cheney gets disbarred for lying under oath, then cry to me.

“We have no credible evidence that Iraq and Al Qaeda cooperated on attacks against the United States”

The commission was a political tool. Their conclusions were based on biased conjecture. Hussein was a threat but is no longer. Don't like it, too bad, vote for Kerry if you can.

A political tool? The panel was bipartisan and chaired by a Republican. Your NeoCon conclusion is based on biased conjecture. I do plan on voting for Kerry.
