He's a grumpy old fart, for sure. I'm not sure, however, that anybody on the political scene has been wrong more times on issues of consequence (e.g., WMD's, the Iraq "cakewalk," "greeted as liberators", an Al Qaeda/Iraq connection, "yellowcake" uranium from Niger, ...). Too bad he wasn't bulled around by someone for all this poppycock he spewed.

I question whether he was wrong or simply lying to suit his own agenda.

I'll give him the benefit of the doubt - he was only lying most of the time, not all the time. As far as him or Palin, I see it as a choice between deceitfulness and ignorance.

He's a liar and a fear monger - has been for a very long time.

As much as I dislike the scoundrel, I actually think that he and his ilk sometimes believe the dreck they're spewing. Actually believing (and spreading) these delusional fantasies may be worse than lying.

Nah, Chancey was smarter but he did have that same sex appeal thing going on. Just ask Shirley MacLaine.

But people did see in him what they wanted as he never really said anything at all. Must be a relative of some kind.
