CNN Transcript vis Eschaton

I promise, enough with the journalist/politico performance stuff (for awhile). But I just had to posit something that hawkish Biden said in response to a typical cable news media question this morning.
[Voice over] DICK CHENEY, VICE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES: The worst possible thing we could do is what the Democrats are suggesting, and no matter how you carve it, you can call it anything you want, but basically, it is packing it in, going home, persuading and convincing and validating the theory that the Americans don't have the stomach for this fight.

BLITZER: All right. You want to respond to the vice president, Senator Biden?

BIDEN: No, I don't want to respond to him. He's at 20 percent in the polls. No one listens to him. He has no credibility. It's ridiculous."

I'm not sure whether Cheney's statement, Biden's non-response or Wolf Blitzer's annoying voice pisses me off more (I mean I can hear his voice asking this question). And, so, this is what passes for political discourse in ermerrika
