Reuters: Dick Cheney Says Aristide Had Worn Out Welcome
"The fact of the matter was, that Mr. Aristide had worn out his welcome. He was democratically elected but he didn't govern in a democratic manner and had reached the point where clearly the opposition groups, rebels, were increasingly successful at undermining his authority," Cheney said.
I want any of these administration types, be it Shadow President Dick Cheney, Secretary of Statute of Limitations Colin Powell, or George W. Bush hisself to answer one simple question:
Is there anybody on the Right side of the aisle able to help us out here, and tell us if they have any idea what that means?
How EXACTLY did President Jean Bertrand-Aristide of Haiti wear out his welcome?
Why was the fact that Aristide "was democratically elected" so downplayed and dismissed by Cheney, who wasn't?
Again, what EXACTLY spurred the line, "... but he didn't govern in a democratic manner"? What does Cheney mean, and what specifically is he referring to? Start building your case, Dick.
The Vice President seems to be confusing "fax" with "facts."
Another doozy:
"... had reached the point where clearly the opposition groups, rebels, were increasingly successful at undermining his authority," Cheney said. "
And just how did they get that way, pray tell? With help from French covert intelligence forces and our own CIA, perhaps? Or State Dept. or Defense Dept. or even White House support, arms, supplies and encouragement, maybe?
I make a request of former Enron operative Ed Gillespie, who's now Chairman of the Republican National Committee: Please, everytime that Cheney comes out of his caves, have someone brief him on what has gone on since he left last. Geeez, don't they have cable or satellite in those caves of his?
