This is your vise-president speaking, people.....

US Vice President Dick Cheney says he is not concerned about the views the American public holds on the long-drawn-out war in Iraq.
In an interview with ABC's Good Morning America, when the White House correspondent said polls show that two-third of Americans believe the war is not worth fighting, Cheney responded with a 'so?'
When the shocked correspondent asked if he was not concerned about what the Americans think, Cheney flatly said 'No. I think you cannot be blown off course by the fluctuations in the public opinion polls.'
Earlier on Tuesday, in an address the American troops in Iraq, Cheney claimed the longer the Iraq war goes on, the more Iraqi people 'trust' and feel 'better' about Americans.
This is while a BBC/ABC/ARD/NHK poll shows that 46 percent of Iraqis have no confidence whatsoever in the American occupiers and only four percent have a 'great deal of confidence' in US forces.
Another newly released poll by CNN shows that the American public's support for the war has sharply plummeted from 68 percent in 2003 when the war began to 36 percent.
