Asked About Two Thirds of Americans' Opposition to War, Darth Cheney says, 'So?'
Vice President fishing on Oman sultan's yacht Wednesday

On the fifth anniversary of President George W. Bush's invasion of Iraq, President Bush said he has no doubts about waging the unpopular war despite the "high cost in lives and treasure."

Vice President Dick Cheney had a different message. Informed during a Good Morning America interview broadcast Wednesday that two-thirds of Americans now think the war was not worth fighting, Cheney said: "So?"

"So you don't care what the American people think?" ABC's Martha Raddatz asked.

He added: "I think we cannot be blown off course by the fluctuations of the public opinion polls. There has in fact been fundamental change and transformation and improvement for the better. That's a huge accomplishment."

1. Cheney's utter contempt for the people's will is no surprise
He and the rest of the cabal have been lying and breaking the law for their own gain for decades. When even Congress won't lift a finger to stop them, why should he care what Americans think?
