Cheney: Iraq going swimmingly!
Yeah, for Halliburton.... Unfuckingbelievable. During what could turn out to be one of the deadliest month for US troops since its start, short-circuiting cyborg Dick 'dick' Cheney says the Iraq war is going "remarkably well’

Cheney "five student deferments" McChicken admitted to a busily lapping Rush Limpball that there is a “natural level of concern out there” because fighting didn’t end “instantaneously.” And because we weren't greeted with flowers as liberators. And because the insurgency's last throes have been going on for quite a number of years now.
Next month, the war will have lasted longer than US fighting in World War II...

Cheney then pointed to various news items to paint a positive picture of conditions in Iraq and concluded, “If you look at the general overall situation, they’re doing remarkably well.”
Positive news items?

9 10 US troops killed in one of the bloodiest days of the war, driving the American October death toll to 67 68 69.

The Iraqi government removed the country’s two most senior police commanders from their posts on Tuesday, on suspicions that they may have permitted or even participated in death squad killings.

Former US secretary of state James Baker was "visibly shocked" when he visited Iraq, and said the country was in a "helluva mess", the BBC reported today.
