I'd be all over this. Once he gets back from vacation he should demand that John McCain repudiate/condemn this comment by Dick Cheney. Or better yet, have some of his surrogates do it right now.

just confront him when he tries this and tell him "you are so full of shit,SIR"?

There's no downside to going after CBM. Until the general election campaign, there will be little incoming from them and much to gain by going after them.

comes across as either a whiney or disingenuous form of political discourse regardless of whose demanding the retraction from whom. Because liberals are often perceived as whiney by blue collar Americans, I think it's a tactic that they especially ought to avoid.
Democrats need whenever possible, imho, to frame their message in language that undercuts the appeal of the Republican claim to be better able to protect Americans against our enemies.
The blindly ideolgical policies of the Neo-Cons have strengthened our enemies (most notably Iran) while lining the pockets of corporate executives with connections in the Republican establishment, even as the costs of the war have been borne by working families (not to mention patriotic immigrants who are diproportionately represented in the military). The short-sightedness and starry-eyed idealism of the Bush administration has demonstrated that the Republicans aren't responsible enough be trusted with our national security.
That's how I'd frame it.

Which candidate will rescind Executive Order 13233?
by el vasco on Mon Mar 24, 2008 at 03:02:29 PM PDT
is the only one who has promised to review each of Bushs executive orders for constitutionality. Im sure 13233 would be near the top of the list. It looks like Hillary has already embraced 13233 to prevent the release of Clinton White House documents.

Grow up, citizen. We're talking about one of Dubya'a earliest Exec Orders in which he sealed off the Presidential Records of his father's term and Reagan's terms. The records were about to be released due to an automatic time schedule. Dubya simply waved his magic wand and said too bad, from now on the rules have changed and here's a whole new set of strictures limiting future release. Mr.Spinning Head was alluding to Hillary's noteworthy footdragging in releasing tax records and documents from Bill's years in office. You can google all this if you are genuinely interested.

Tie them to Katrina too.
You know, all the dead and displaced from Katrina, their lives might be burdened, but Bush had to bear the biggest burden. You know, the burden of eating cake on the tarmac and playing guitar while NOLA drowned.

I remeber thinking, "Well, at least it couldn't get any worse." I'll never say that again. To quote Calvin and Hobbes, "nothing's so bad that it couldn't get worse."

Hated Reagan then, hate him now. IMO, what we are seeing now is a repeat of the Reagan years with the same disastrous results...albeit on steroids.
Gawd, I hate these fuckers.

OK...even if impeachment for GWB is "off the table," can we at least bring impeachment for this evil amoral boil-on-the-butt-of-humanity back on the table? I believe Congressman Kucinich has begun some sort of bill. It's my understanding that the DICKtator-Wanna-Be's "warm and fuzzy" indicator is in the trillion digit negatives even in a "friendly" town like DC. C'Mon!!!

I am talking to the server. You don't have to wait for me to finish.
by RogueJim on Mon Mar 24, 2008 at 04:21:49 PM PDT
because if a Democrat said this about a Democratic president it would finish the party for 30 years. Fortunately we have our media stars who remember the script, who just intuitively know that Cheney didn't mean it, and who have the bravery to ignore it.
