Reply #13: Certainly you are. Your post #7: "That means Cheney's word made the record."

[Bolo Boffin]

It was not just "Cheney's word". That's where you're pretending this is Mineta v. Cheney. It's not that simple and you do yourself and your readers a disservice by your pretense.

It's very clear what they were talking about, if you care to look at the other evidence instead of cherrypicking what you like about Mineta's testimony. They were talking about a shootdown order that Cheney had given before. Cheney was pissed because he'd made the order and then other people in the room questioned his authority to do so and asked him to call Bush to verify the order. He did so and then the young officer came in again. When he asked if the orders still stood, Cheney bit his head off for questioning him.

I've never seen the name of that person anywhere. So go ahead and wax silly about it while you miss the documented lie revealed in the 9/11 Commission Report as told by Bush and Cheney. And you must, because you must discount the 9/11 Commission report at all costs, even when it presents the clear evidence that Bush and Cheney lied about when Bush gave Cheney authorization for the shootdown order.

ETA: More ways that the 9/11 Commission Report documents the bullshit that passed for an administration under George W. Bush.
