Reprehensible
By Justin Gardner | Related entries in The War On Terrorism, WarThat’s the word Cheney used to described Democrats who are criticizing the planning, selling and prosecution of the war in Iraq.
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - In the sharpest White House attack yet on critics of the Iraq war, Vice President Dick Cheney said on Wednesday that accusations the Bush administration manipulated intelligence to justify the war were a “dishonest and reprehensible” political ploy.Cheney called Democrats “opportunists” who were peddling “cynical and pernicious falsehoods” to gain political advantage while U.S. soldiers died in Iraq.
So Cheney is calling Democrats opportunists? Hmm…I’ll have to fully digest that one…
And what about the majority of the American population who now think we were misled into the war? Are those opinions reprehensible?
Personally, when politicians of either stripe start using words like “reprehensible” anymore, I usually just click to the next channel or go to another website.
Next.

What does that have to do with it?
Are you not capable of understanding that they have that perception exactly because of the lying opportunism of the Democratic Party???
It’s about time that this administration shows the American people just how intellectually and morally bankrupt the Democratic leadership is. The best part is that they will be able to do with their own words….
Maybe we should have a poll that asks the question: Were Democrats lying when they said that Saddam was a threat, or are they lying now when they claim that Saddam was never a threat? They seem to be a mutually exclusive position, so one of them has to be a lie.
