Cheney (Or At Least His Office) Admits He's Wrong!

Remember this? On Wednesday, Vice-President Cheney said that the Communist Chinese were drilling for oil 60 miles off the coast of Florida.

Senator Mel Martinez (R-Fl) called this an "urban legend."

McClatchy is reporting today:

Cheney's office has since backtracked, issuing a statement that says "It is our understanding that, although Cuba has leased out exploration blocks 60 miles off the coast of southern Florida, which is closer than American firms are allowed to operate in that area, no Chinese firm is drilling there."

Now if only we can get him to do the right thing and admit he was lying about the WMD in Iraq, Valerie Plame, Iraq's ties to al-Qaeda and so on.

If only...
