Cheney lies again

On Friday, September 8, the Senate Intelligence Committee on postwar findings about Iraq's links to terrorism stated: "Postwar information indicates that Saddam Hussein attempted, unsuccessfully, to locate and capture al-Zarqawi and that the regime did not have a relationship with, harbor, or turn a blind eye toward Zarqawi."

On Sunday, September 10, in an appearance on Meet the Press, Dick Cheney stated: "You've got Iraq and al Qaeda: testimony from the Director of CIA that there was, indeed, a relationship; Zarqawi in Baghdad, et cetera."

Well, at least he's consistent. But then, "A foolish consistency is the hobgoblin of little minds" (Ralph Waldo Emerson).
