Cheney's audacity appalls me
I can't believe that Dick Cheney is attacking Kerry, calling him weak on defense. He claimed that Kerry voted against defense bills when in fact, Cheney fought to have them cut during the Reagan administration. There is a list of the lies that Cheney has been spreading in this article:

I guess if you tell a lie often enough and with enough authority, people will think it's the truth.

6. This just in....
Kerry wants to increase deficit spending by supporting enormous military spending for obsolete programs.

--Dick Cheney, attacking Kerry's voting record on defense spending.

According to Cheney, "Spending like this will push this great nation further into deficits with no end in sight. We need a man of principle in the White House, not a supposed 'war veteran' who vlindly votes pro-military and pro-intelligence because some Democratic senator throws a bill in the air."

End of sarcasm.
