The absurd circular logic of war criminal co-conspirator Lyn Cheney.
When asked a very general question (on Morning Intern-Killer), "If it appears laws were broken, would you be in favor of an investigation?" "No laws were broken," replied Lyn. No one even mentioned her father, but she spoke with absolute certainty. "No laws were broken." But that's not the main point of the sub line. It's this:

Over and over Cheney and Mika talked about how different things were after 9/11. "People have to remember, we were in a very different place back then. The American people would have gotten behind any kind of program to get AQ back then!"

So, Ms. War Criminal Co-Conspirator, why was there a need to keep secret a program which every American would have supported you on? It makes no sense whatsoever. Essentially saying "We had to lie, we had to break the law, but everyone would have supported us even if we told them, so we just didn't bother to tell them." BULLSHIT.

Cheney had no constitutional authority, never mind moral authority, to elect to break the law and hide such activity from Congress. NONE, Lyn. We don't care "what time it was in America." We have LAWS which your family seems to wipe their asses with at every possible opportunity.

1. she`s making a run to be the spokesperson for the republican party
by supporting her daddy she thinks she`ll have enough creditability to become a player in the future of the republican party.

it would be interesting if someone asked her why her daddy went after saddam instead of bin laden who masterminded the 9-11 attacks.

2. Totally agree with your rebutal to the Cheney "logic" ... Still not Hold(er)ing my breath for an
investigation. What we are hearing from the DOJ and White House is much like the old "sternly worded letter" routine of Conyers.

8. I'm as tired of Lyn Cheney as the next guy BUT
to accuse her of being a co-conspirator is wrong.

Just sayin.

3. Liz can spin daddy's talking points
Eugene is tearing her a new one about the law - Congress must be briefed.

5. The look on Eugene's face is priceless
Liz is sure spinning for daddy. 'Security of the nation' means don't touch my daddy.

6. you can hear what total BS they shovel to the American people.
and expect us to believe them, they have such disdain and lack of respect for the American people. Liz covering her daddy's a$$. He has always been a criminal.
