Through the eyes of Dick Cheney

Published May 20, 2004 4:22PM (EDT)

The Center for American Progress uses Dick Cheney's own words to try to get inside the head of our vice president. Funny, but of course, not.

"In a series of public statements over the last few months, Vice President Cheney has given the American public a glimpse of how the world looks from his perspective. In Cheney World, Fox News is a bastion of journalistic integrity, Wal-Mart's poverty-level wages represent all that is good about the American economy, Don Rumsfeld's mishandling of/lying about Iraq makes him the best Defense Secretary ever, and Halliburton is a shining beacon of integrity even as it shafts American taxpayers and U.S. troops."
