OK, Walter, I found a more current poll from the end of April with a 19% approval rating for Cheney, but it’ll be a flawed some how…BTW, as big of a pain in the ass we find each other, you do give me a brain workout doing homework.

Cheney.

The polls are not flawed, your use of them are flawed. The poll you link to above has NOTHING to do with Cheney’s remarks on Fox, which was your first contention way up thread.

This article was written on Apr. 28th, Cheney’s remarks were on Apr. 27th, and the CBS poll HAD TO BE TAKEN BEFORE ANY OF THAT, or else they would not have the stats to report.

And, the article say nothing about the poll being in regards to his remarks on Fox.

Don’t you see the disconnect. In the least, CBS is being coy by reporting two DIFFERENT trains of thought in the same article so people like you will not be able to separate the concepts, the ideas, the actual timeline.

And guess what, they fooled you, and you spent the whole afternoon making yourself look like a blooming idiot.

Carefully, go over your remarks up thread, reread your responses and pay very close attention to the material you linked to.
