Dick Cheney is a curious creature

There is a saying that if you repeat a lie often enough, eventually it becomes true. Obviously the Vice President of the United States is an adherent to this view.

Despite the fact that the 9/11 Commission, who have exhaustively studied the intelligence failures that enabled the attacks to take place, has conclusively demonstrated there to be no linkage between the attacks and Saddam Hussein, Cheney continues to assert just such a linkage. He appears to be pretending that the 9/11 Commission simply does not exist, from what I can tell.

I know that politicians and dissembling go hand in hand, but is this not brazen and ridiculous?
