During the debate, Dick Cheney declared that he had not met John Edwards until they got on the stage tonight. Later, Edwards' wife told Cheney that he had sat next to her husband for two hours at one event, to which he replied, "Oh yes."
The Kerry-Edwards campaign provided a transcript of a prayer breakfast in February 2001 at which Cheney began his remarks by acknowledging Edwards. The two men also met when Edwards escorted Republican Sen. Elizabeth Dole to her swearing-in by Cheney in January 2003. The two men shook hands on April 8, 2001, when they met off-camera during a taping of NBC’s “Meet the Press.”
Edwards is using this as "another example of Cheney not coming clean with the American people", but one has to wonder if this is simply a case of Cheney going senile in his old age.
Cheney has said many times that there is a link between Hussein and al Qaeda, but tonight he denied ever saying those things.
Big Error of the Night Cheney told people to go to factcheck.com (he meant to say .org) and that URL is a George Soros site that says "Why we must not re-elect George Bush"!

"There is no creator" - the Dalai Lama. These are words of common sense, and it tells me that "spirituality" has nothing in particular to do with a belief in the supernatural. But then, those of us who grew up in the seventies watching "Kung Fu" already knew that being a vegan, atheist who follows the path of the buddha can reach enlightenment.
All kidding aside, what does a vegetarian atheist have to say? Stick around and you'll find out! Politically I'm rather liberal, but I do like to listen to staunch conservative talk show host Michael (the 'Whiner') Savage so I'll probably be mentioning him from time to time in my weblogs. So for now, how about some talk of broccoli, carrots and peas? Recipe's anyone??

"As mankind becomes more liberal, they will be more apt to allow that all those who conduct themselves as worthy members of the community are equally entitled to the protections of civil government. I hope ever to see America among the foremost nations of justice and liberality."
