Now It's Hogwash Everywhere
Dick Cheney started it.WOLF BLITZER: ...good Republican friends in the Senate and the
House are now seriously questioning your credibility, because of the blunders and the failures.
Gordon Smith...
CHENEY: Wolf, Wolf, I simply don't accept the premise of your question. I just think it's
hogwash.
Now it's Senator Byrd.
“This administration has claimed that debating the president’s plan will undermine U.S. troops. Hogwash. H-O-G-W-A-S-H.” — Sen. Robert C. Byrd, D-W.Va.
Just what do these wise ( ) men mean? I guess it's better than some of the language Cheney has used, but not quite up there with Donald Rumsfelds "aw shucks" moments.
