Last month, [Dick] Cheney declared, “The American people will not support a policy of retreat.”
But, it’s obvious that Dick Cheney simply considers himself to be “the American People”. This month, he sings a slightly different tune.
CHENEY: On the security front, I think there’s a general consensus that we’ve made major progress, that the surge has worked. That’s been a major success.RADDATZ: Two-third[s] of Americans say it’s not worth fighting.
CHENEY: So?
RADDATZ So? You don’t care what the American people think?
CHENEY: No. I think you cannot be blown off course by the fluctuations in the public opinion polls.
Pretty direct answer. "No." I don't care.
The percentage of people who want out of this mess hasn’t really fluctuated in years. Just steadily goes up.
"A general concensus" of the only people who matter to Dick Cheney. Himself, namely.
Of the people. For the people. Means nothing to these SOBs, does it?
