9:03 Here we go.
9:04 Cheney: Iraq was the most likely nexus between Iraq and Al Qaeda. Doesn't seem to be kidding.
9:06 Edwards to Cheney: We all know you're lying!
9:07 Cheney: Why is my soothing tone not reassuring you? Stop questioning me.
9:08 Edwards: Dude, you are so totally lying. Say it with me, Saddam Hussein had nothing to do with September 11th. People, watch Cheney's lips move -- l-y-i-n-g. Next time he opens his mouth, he's going to be lying. All you gotta do is watch.
9:09 Cheney: Remember when Kerry said "global test"?
9:11 Edwards clearly hates Cheney. He looks like he wants to turn to his right and rip his head off.
9:13 Cheney: Afghanistan is going well.
9:16 Edwards: You're lying!
9:20 Cheney: Your facts are wrong, Senator. If you really are a senator.
9:21 Edwards: Even the American people have figured out that you're a liar.
9:24 Cheney: Kerry voted against defense programs. Then again, so did I, and I'm lying about Kerry, so it's all very confusing.
9:26 Edwards: We voted against the $87 billion because it was obvious that you didn't know what the hell you were doing.
9:29 Edwards: The U.N. has only 35 people on the ground to hold elections in Iraq. Um, that true?
9:30 Cheney takes deep breath. Exasperated by this young punk who keeps asking questions.
9:31 Edwards: Look me in the eye, Mr. Vice President -- admit it, you are a very lying liar.
9:33 Edwards: Folks, the President and Vice President live in a parallel universe where what happens really doesn't happen if you just pretend it so.
9:33 Objective assessment: Edwards is kicking Cheney's ass. Hard.
9:36 Cheney: CIA still not sure about Iraq-Al Qaeda connection. Except, of course, I'm lying.
9:38 Cheney: Okay, this guy's onto me. Better talk slooowly.
9:39 Edwards: Dude, are we going to invade every country where Al Qaeda live? Cause there are like 60 of those. Oh, and by the way, Halliburton.
9:41 Cheney smirks. Fantastic.
9:41 Cheney: Go to factcheck.org on Halliburton. Please do.
9:42 Ifill asks Edwards about Israel. He forgets to talk about Bush or Cheney.
9:45 Cheney: You never show up to work. Then again, neither does the President.
9:46 Edwards: Dude, you voted against Head Start, Martin Luther King, and Nelson Mandela. So back it.
9:47 Edwards: Cheney never answered about Israel! That wasn't pretty.
9:50 Edwards: Cheney talked about education and I didn't get to! Look away from the screen.
9:52 Cheney: We passed Medicare reform. Yeah, good job on that. That one's all yours.
9:55 Cheney: I think the right to marry should be left to the states. So does the President. But Karl doesn't.
10:01 Edwards: Dude, you totally have a gay daughter and I'm not gonna let anyone forget it. Unfortunately, here comes the pandering! Marriage -- man, woman. Okay, done. But the federal marriage amendment, that thing sucked. How'd your daughter like that one?
10:04 Cheney: He's a trial lawyer. Karl says that's bad.
10:06 Edwards needs to quit moving his arms so much. It's unsettling.
10:06 Edwards: Medicare premiums are up 17%. Remember that bill you were just crowing about?
10:06 Cheney: That's your fault. I think because you're a trial lawyer.
10:13 Edwards is talking about Africa -- AIDS and Sudan. I wonder what could be.
10:13 Note to Edwards: Get back to talking about how they lie.
10:14 Ifill: You're like 12. How can you be Vice President?
10:15 Edwards: I'm old enough to know not to lie.
10:17 Cheney smirks really creepily. Excellent.
10:19 Note to Edwards: Tell him that you find his monotonaity sexy, but he has nonetheless bungled running the country.
10:22 Edwards has broken Ifill's rule -- don't mention Kerry's name -- twice in two minutes.
10:24 I could go for a little 'two Americas' right about now. This is a little dull.
10:27 Cheney: Massachusetts equals high taxes. Thought of that one myself.
10:28 Ifill bungles the clock.
10:29 Cheney: We haven't been able to bring people together so much as we thought we might. I think it might be because most people hate us and because we keep lying. Oh, and because sometimes I tell people off on the Senate floor.
10:40 Winner? If you know Cheney is lying, Edwards. If you don't, it was close.
9:04 Cheney: Iraq was the most likely nexus between Iraq and Al Qaeda. Doesn't seem to be kidding.
