1. Need another choice:
"I don't know but I would like an apology from all the Cheney apologists who insisted we were being unfair for suggesting he might have been impaired by alcohol because 'he takes meds, is in poor health and CANNOT DRINK'. "

:rofl:

3. That's cute, but you're all missing something.
Cheney said he had a beer at lunch. He didn't say "I only had ONE beer"! or that he didn't have any before or after lunchy either!

You gotta always parse the words these people say.

If I had a beer with dinner, and 5 more after dinner, I'd still be telling you the truth if I said "I had a beer with dinner!"

13. My thoughts as well.
There are lies of omission. "I had a beer" may be true, while omitting "I had four beers and six martinis."

11. Umm, I think it was actually more like a keg than a bottle.
You'd have to have tapped out a keg to mistake a 78 year old man for a bird.

21. Hey, it also depends on the type of beer. Because...
some beers that you have to drink with a spoon can get you half drunk with 12 ozs.
