You miss an important point in my logic. It is your fault for punching me in the nose. You would pay a price( consequences) for the punch. I got punched and I will have to live with the consequences of being punched. That can not be undone. I will have to live with that. I have to take responsibility for letting myself get punched in the nose. I have to ask myself, why did I let you punch me in the nose? What do I need to do not to get punched in the nose by a person like you again? what action am I going to take against you? what message am I going to send to others? Etc., etc., etc.

Trust me, I won't whine.

It's ironic that you're deploying an anti-buck-passing strategy to get your boy Cheney off the hook of the mess he made here.

I am being who I am. The irony is that if Chaney was in Pelosi's shoes or the roles were reversed - my bet is that Chaney would figuratively shoot first and ask questions later. Remember the Valerie Plame matter?
