Cheney's whopper (Joe Trippi)

Dick Cheney was on a mission to pull the wool over voters eyes.  “ What connection to Al Queada?” He asked   “I’ve never said their was any connection between Al Queada and Iraq.”  

HELLO?

Everyone reporting on this race knew that Dick Cheney had just told a whopper. But nearly no one called him on it.  Chris Mathews did not let it pass— he would not let Ben Ginsberg off the hook late last night on the Cheney whopper.   But most others that brought it up on the air or in print did so with a chuckle and a “pols will be pols” attitude condoning the Vice President’s incredible ability to say just about anything with a straight face.

The debate started last night with John Edwards charging that the Bush/Cheney administration had failed to tell the American people the truth.    Dick Cheney last night proved John Edwards case for him, with distortions, half-truths, and finally with a bold-faced lie.

That should be the coverage .It was obvious who was playing fast and loose with the truth and it was Dick Cheney.
