The irrelevancy of the November election

Cheney, on Fox News:

I wouldn't say Chris Wallace was aggressive, exactly -- this was Fox News, after all -- but it's to his credit that he repeated many of his most important questions twice, and used several embarrassing video clips to put Cheney's comments in context.

And Wallace asked: "By taking the policy you have, haven't you, Mr. Vice President, ignored the expressed will of the American people in the November election?

"THE VICE PRESIDENT: Well, Chris, this President, and I don't think any President worth his salt can afford to make decisions of this magnitude according to the polls. The polls change.

"Q This was an election, sir.

"THE VICE PRESIDENT: Polls change day by day, week by week. I think the vast majority of Americans want the right outcome in Iraq."

So, the vice president equates an election with just another weekly poll. Even Chris Wallace seems shocked by such a naked dismissal of the voters.

Impeachment. Now.
