Jesus. You and AG have a nice conversation. Sarcasm mixed with disingenuous . . . stuff. Commiserate over looted museums, and lies. Call me when it's over.

We can talk about the Vice President's "insistence on perpetuating dubious claims":
- In a series of well-publicized interviews, Cheney has revived two assertions already discredited by other members of the administration.
First, he declared that there is "overwhelming evidence that Saddam Hussein has a relationship with al Qaeda," a link that even the president discounted last year.
Second, he argued that two flatbed trailers outfitted with tanks -- discovered after the war -- proved that Iraq was indeed engaged in biological weapons programs. But scientists who studied them in Baghdad, including the late British scientist David Kelly and Kay, had already discredited that conclusion.
SF Chronicle editorial this morning
Does Cheney really believe this stuff? If so, shouldn't the man be better informed? If not, why does he keep repeating it?
