Lynne Cheney, wife of Vice President Dick Cheney, took on CNN Friday evening during an interview with anchorman Wolf Blitzer.
Transcript:
CHENEY: You made a point last night of a man who had a bookstore in london where radical islamists gathered. Who was in afghanistan when the taliban were there. Who went to pakistan. You know, i think that you might be a little careful before you declare this as a person with clean hands.
WOLF: You are receiving to the cnn "broken government" special. This is the one john king reported on last night.
CHENEY: Right there, wolf. Broken government. What kind of stance is that? Here we are. We are a country where we have been mightily challenged over the past six years. We've been through 9/11, we've been through katrina. The president and the vice president inherited oo recession. We are in a country where the economy is healthy. That's not broken. This government has acted very well. We have tax cuts responsible for the healthy economy. We are a country that was attacked five years ago. We haven't been attacked since. What this government has done is effective. That's not broken government. So, you know, i shouldn't let media bias surprise me, but i worked at cnn once. I watched a program last night.
WOLF: You worked in cross fire.
CHENEY: And i was troubled.
WOLF: All right. Well that was probably the purpose, to get people to think. To get people to discuss these issues. Because --
CHENEY: well, all right. Wolf, i'm here to talk about my book. But if you want to talk about distortion --
WOLF: we'll talk about your book.
CHENEY: Right, but what is cnn doing? Running terrorist tape of terrorists shooting americans. I mean, i thought duncan hunter asked you a very good question, and you didn't answer it. Do you want us to win?
WOLF: The answer of course is we want the united states to win. We are americans. There's no doubt about that.
CHENEY: Then why are you running terrorist propaganda?
WOLF: Well all do respect, this is not terrorist propaganda.
CHENEY: Oh, wolf.
WOLF: This is reporting the news. Which is what we do, we are not partisan.
CHENEY: Where did you get the film?
WOLF: We got the film, look, this is an issue that has been widely discussed. This is an issue we reported on extensively. We make no apology ies for showing that. That was a very carefully-considered decision why we did that. And i think, i think --
CHENEY: well i think it's shocking.
WOLF: If you are a serious journalist, you want to report the news. Sometimes the news is good, sometimes the news isn't so good.
CHENEY: But wolf, there's a difference between news and terrorist propaganda.
It's really Cheryl....but mystery is better..lol
So, Wolf, where did that film come from again?
Excellent work by Lynne Cheney.
That's a great poster!
BUMP
Hey, Wolfie, you are anti-American scum and NO, I don't think you want America to win. You want your depraved "socialist internationale" butt-buddies to win. You imagine that somehow the Islamo-fascists will spare you leftists because you are so craven and cowardly in not opposing them, and in actually doing propaganda work on their behalf..... but guess what, Wolfie?? If they get the chance they will slit your throats or blow you up or slaughter your children with just as much Satanic glee as if you were the brother of President George W. Bush..... you don't get it yet, do you Wolfie, it's submit to dhimmitude and slavery, be slaughtered, or FIGHT BACK. Those are the choices, period.
I have said for several years that there should be a CHENEY on the ticket.....LYNN CHENEY!!!!!!!
Back in 2000 when I shook Lynn Cheney's hand, I told her about the Cheney Chicks at FreeRepublic, and she laughed out loud!
They've also been running a multi-part series they call "WAR ON THE MIDDLE CLASS" -- just in time for the elections, of course -- yeah, that's another really objective, unbiased look at contemporary politics and economics..... take a guess, which party is presented as at "war with the middle class" here in the worst economy in human history??
Yes it is. Now if only I could delete "Cherry Blitz" from my mind--LOL
Sheesh--I blame James Webb for all of this!
CNN like the BBC and Al Jazeera, does not want America to win.
You know engrpat, it has long been my opinion that how we treat those we preceive to be 'beneath' us says volumes about us. I am pleased to hear that Lynn Cheney was kind to your daughter and others in a regular, normal beauty salon, this shows us that she really is a class act.
Recall, if you will, how Carter and Clinton were said to be cold to the tailor whom all the recent presidents have used. The master tailor also mentioned how warm were 41 and W. Very telling.
Wolf ( what kind of name is that anyway) does not have enough upstairs to clean.
The Republicans should be shouting this from the rooftops. Other than the President in his stump appearances, they don't seem to be. Or if they are the message isn't getting out. I would like to see an all-out blitz this weekend and next on the talk shows.
REPLAY UPCOMING ON CNN NOW !
"OK. Stop right there.
'Partisan' is Democrat vs. Republican or Right vs. Left.
'Partisan' is NOT terrorist vs. U.S.A.
She wasn't questioning your bias, you media twit-- although she has every reason to-- she's questioning why, in a time of war, you're giving aid and comfort to the enemy; even going so far as serving as an outlet for their propoganda."
Excellent - most excellent!
Got it!
Thank you!!!!!!!!!!
