John Edwards, Evil Dick and the "Iraq is a remarkable success" comment

[Bush_Eats_Beef]

"Eleven hundred American soldiers have lost their lives, more than 8,000 have been wounded. Terrorists are flowing in. Americans are being kidnapped. We see beheadings (search) on television. The costs are now $225 billion and counting. And, knowing all of this, yesterday all Dick Cheney could say was that Iraq is a remarkable success," Edwards said at the University of Minnesota.

In Wilmington, Ohio, on Monday, Cheney said: "In the weeks and months ahead we've got to be prepared to deal with a difficult situation which our guys are dealing with right now even as we speak, and they will continue to do that as we get more and more Iraqis into the effort over there too. I think it's been a remarkable success story to date when you look at what's been accomplished overall. I think the president deserves great credit for it."

Edwards also blamed the GOP ticket for nearly 400 tons of explosives going missing in Iraq. The White House played down the significance of the missing weapons, but the Democrats seized on the disappearance as proof of Bush's "incompetence."

"These are exactly the kind of explosives terrorists want. They're the dangerous weapons we wanted to keep from falling in the hands of terrorists. And now these explosives are out there and we have no idea who's got them. Dick Cheney calls that a remarkable success," Edwards said.

4. Well, for Haliburton and the other

government money sucking companies over there, it's a terrific success. It's just that when looking at the overall balance sheet, they do that fuzzy math thingy and discard all the bad news and only count the profits.
