Larry tends to be more right than wrong about these things anyway.

Klayman said Cheney was the defacto president, meaning Bush is NOT the president.

Now, do you or do you not agree with him?

Actually, I would require documentation that Larry tends to be more right than wrong about "these things."

Here, let me put the exact quote up for you:

"Well, and if you believe that, we're in deep trouble in the war against terrorism. This is a hands-on vice president. He is the de facto president. And he runs this country, in effect. He's a very sharp guy. He's known for his hands-on management style, particularly when he was secretary of defense during the Persian Gulf War."

Larry said that Cheney is the "de facto president." (See definition by Howlin provided above.) He also said Cheney "runs this country, in effect."

Are you defending this statement? Do you agree with it? Is it an appropriate comment to make during a war?
