As difficult as it is to watch Dead Eye Dick Cheney, his performance on the Faux News channel on Sunday was a masterpiece in deceit and diversion. This from the genius that proclaimed years ago that the insurgency was "in its final throes". We've made "enormous" progress in Iraq, yes indeed. The civil was has progressed to a nightmarish conflagration, the Iraqi middle class has progressed to Jordan and other Arab states, and the casualty and death toll among our troops has progressed - - and will increase once the surge begins. Now, with Iran on Dead Eye's hit list, we'll be able to achieve even more progress in the Middle East.
