Cheney warns against large cuts in Iraq
News – Cheney used words like "phenomenal" and "remarkable turnaround" to describe a drop in violence in Iraq, and he hailed recently passed legislation aimed at keeping Iraq on a democratic path.
"It would be a mistake now to be so eager to draw down the force that we risk putting the outcome in jeopardy, and I don't think we'll do that," Cheney said after spending the day zigzagging through barricades and checkpoints to get to meetings in and out of the heavily guarded Green Zone. He spent the night at a U.S. military base, the second overnight stay in Iraq for the vice president รข;; the highest-ranking official to do so. Reporters accompanying him were not allowed to disclose the location. Last May, Cheney stayed at Camp Speicher, a base near former leader Saddam Hussein's hometown and about 100 miles north of Baghdad.
If we're doing so well, why did 43 die today in Iraq?
"If we're doing so well, why did 43 die today in Iraq?"
He's only talking about 'merkins, they're the only ones that matter to him. Ten thousand Iraqi children could die, but if there were no 'merkins, it'd be a good day for Bush and Cheney.

If we are doing so well why did he have to hide?
