Does that mean that "they" won?
They could be:
- Cheney and Co
- GOP
-Rush
-The terrorists
I'm sorry, I've never been able to watch Fox News but now I can't seem to be able to watch Rachel Maddow either.. It's just too depressing.
What happened?
I always hear " oh the Democrats are delighted to have Cheney as the spokesperson, he's so unpopular.."
He may be. But he seems to have successfully shifted the debate.
And apparently, his popularity seemed to have increased in the last 2 weeks according to some poll I read somewhere.
He seems somehow to have embolden the GOP while Democrats are all over the place with Gitmo and that CIA mess.
I liked the President's speech. I'm not as gung ho as some people here are about "state secrets", "PROSECUTE NOW", " OBAMA=BUSH=CHENEY".
Obama's speech was typical him : reasonable, thoughtful and nuanced.
Cheney's speech was : The end always justify the means and USA first, damn all the rest.
Everywhere I look and read though, the headlines are " Obama vs Cheney: the right cheer on Cheney, the left angry at Obama".
Sad state of affairs.
Sigh...
