Vice President Dick Cheney
WHAT DO YOU THINK?
|
(CBS/AP) The White
House reaction to the
Senate resolution opposing President Bush's decision to send
more troops to Iraq came from Vice President Dick Cheney. In a word,
he was defiant, saying about the general idea of a resolution, "It
won't stop us."
"We are moving forward. The Congress has control over
the purse strings. They have the right, obviously, if they want, to
cut off funding," Cheney said Wednesday in an occasionally testy CNN
interview.
"But in terms of this effort, the president has made
his decision. We've consulted extensively with them. We'll continue
to consult with the Congress. But the fact of the matter is, we need
to get the job done."
If the president was almost humbly pleading with
Congress in Tuesday's State of the Union address to give his plan a
chance, CBS News chief White House correspondent Jim Axelrod
says the vice president played what has come to be his typical role:
the enforcer.
He dismissed suggestions that the Bush administration's
credibility is on the line because of mistakes in Iraq as "hogwash."

The latest polls show that the Bush-Cheney Gang is held
in near-contempt
by the vast majority of Americans. After six years of disastrous
policy-making, the people are close to their tipping point. A majority
now favor impeachment. The Peoples’ State of the Union message, on the
West side of the U.S. Capitol tonight, reflects the ongoing movement to
stop the abuses of power by this present regime. It is part of a
national grass roots action which has the truth on its side. This
growing force, which will be hitting the streets of this city in protest
on Sat., Jan. 27, 2007, intends that the usurpers of our ancient
liberties, who have also wasted the lives of 3,060 of our bravest sons
and daughters in Iraq, be brought to the Bar of Justice.
