Could the Press Grow a Spine?

2. Lying to the media is really really dumb and should give y'all a
very good idea of the person's character and social intelligence.
Cheney's been caught twice in the past week, so far. I wonder what
else lies in the hearts and minds of Cheney and his ilk?

Walt, the man scares me. Like that curse in the Senate - a glimpse under the
hooded cape at the real Mr. Cheney.

He lied - no question at all: the interviewers asked the same question and he
flat out lied. Its frightening to see it happen in real time, knowing there
are other things that are being distorted that we don't yet know about.

Actually they didn't, Russert quoted comments by the Czech interior minister
and James Woolsey about observed Iraqi actions prior to asking Cheney "Do
you still believe there is no evidence that Iraq was involved in September
11?"

A LOT of wasted bandwidth.
1. Stop slanging each other. The 'Ad Hominem'"argument" just wstes
every one's time. (I say bring back the Code Duello and that would
help cut it down.)

Cheney probably did believe there was a "confirmed" connection, and
therefore wasn't lying: Here is a fair analysis of the Atta-Iraq question:

Of course I am using the word lie to mean purposeful deceipt as opposed to
how it is increasing being used by Bush haters as a synonym for "incorrect"
or misinformed.
