Dick Cheney QOTD

2002-01-29 02:02:48+01 by Dan Lyke 0 comments

From an article about Cheney defending the administration's stonewalling on Enron meetings, in which it's acknowledge that the GAO is going to have to take the Bush administration to court, comes this gem:

"After all of these years, can you imagine an FDR or Teddy Roosevelt, in the midst of a grave national crisis, dealing with the problems we're having to deal with now, over here on the side as a matter of political expediency, trading away a very important fundamental principle of the presidency?"

The bit about "Praise Allah for giving me an excuse to change the subject" apparently didn't make it on camera.
