Cheney joining the reality train?

US Vice President Dick Cheney has said he does not believe there are close relations between Iran and Al-Qaeda, seeming to distance himself from some earlier US administration charges.
"I think you've got to remember that the Al-Qaeda organization is primarily made up of radical Sunni Islamists, of course, and the Iranian regime is Shia-dominated -- Shia. So there's not a natural fit there," Cheney said in a telephone interview with the Hugh Hewitt Show, released by the White House.
Sure he preached the crazy notion that secular Saddam was allied with OBL. So he got that wrong. With this reality talk does Uncle Dick deserve some credit?

Hell no! Let's wait until next week. Remember how many times the mission in Iraq changed? I am sure statements of the alliances between Iran and others will change as well. Uncle Dick may soon bring up those ties between Iran and K.A.O.S. Where is Maxwell Smart when we need him?
