Maureen Dowd with another, controversial, piece in the Times.
Most notably this accusation:
Mr. Cheney lumped terrorists and tyrants into one interchangeable mass, saying that Mr. Bush could not tolerate a dictator who had access to weapons of mass destruction, was allied with terrorists and was a threat to his neighbors. Sounds a lot like the military dictator of Pakistan, not to mention the governments of China and North Korea.
To back up his claim that Saddam was an immediate threat, the vice president had to distort the findings of David Kay, the administration’s own weapons hunter, and continue to overdramatize the danger of Saddam. “Saddam built, possessed and used weapons of mass destruction,” Mr. Cheney said. Yes, but during the first Bush administration.
Perhaps the president now realizes the Cheney filter is dysfunctional. If Mr. Bush still needs a daddy to tell him what to do, he should call his own.
