Fake, but accurate...

Cheney is getting some bad press for his comment about never seeing Edwards before the debate.

OK, I will grant that the statement is factually innacurate. There are 3 documented times where Edwards and Cheney met - a 2001 prayer breakfast, a 2001 TV interview, and Liddy Dole's swearing-in ceremony.

But notice something - none of these times are actual sessions of congress. Cheney's point isn't that he doesn't know Edwards or never met him, his point is that as Senator he hasn't bothered to show up to work on a regular basis - which is a valid critique, and one that bumping into Cheney at a TV interview doesn't refute.
