Look what else was in that link:

Bremmer said on ABC some time ago that he NEVER REQUESTED ADDITIONAL TROOPS!

AMBASSADOR L. PAUL BREMER: No, I've never made a request for more troops that's been agreed to. I never made a request for more troops. I agree with the CENTCOM Commander John Abizaid, who said earlier this week in a press conference that he believes we have enough troops here. I think that's right. It's not a question of more troops, it's a question of being effective with our intelligence, getting more Iraqis to help us. There are more than 50,000 Iraqis now working with us on security matters in the police and the border guards and the civil defense corps, and in the new Iraqi army. So Iraqis are more and more assuming responsibility for their security here.

I do not think for one minute that this bothers Cheney.

Leahy's presence will give all the media commentators a reason to remind viewers that Cheney used profanity.

Of course it would be kinda funny if Cheney points out Leahy and tells Edwards "I see you brought your support team".

I understood that his name is Senator 'LEAKY' Leahy.

He is another member of the Democraps 'Hate the United States' mob.

It won't matter. Cheney will clean Edwards' clock. I'm looking forward to this.

You got it right. I don't think Leahy would attend...this is probably just a ruse, not true at all....spread a silly rumor to try and aggravate Cheney.

Won't work.

"Any other trick the dims can possibly pull tonight?"

Yep. Cavuto said that they have placed Leahy in the second row (I think) right in the line of Cheney's eyesight.

If I see Leahy I'll tell him he can go F himself.

I think Vice President Cheney is probably one of the best ever. Does anyone think he may have made a "command decision" on 9-11 when he gave the shootdown order? Totally irrelevant question, but I know there are many who have researched the question better than I.

I'm sure the Dem's greatest hope is that Edward's can goad Cheney into losing his temper as he did with Leahy. Cheney has to know that. I'm also pretty sure that America wouldn't mind a pissed off Veep who wants to take out terrorists as opposed to a piss-ant trial lawyer who'd be happy to sue for emotional distress on their behalf.

I don't believe Cheney would utter a single word of complaint about this. He knows how underhanded the Dems are being and probably expected it, actually.

If the dems are really doing what Cavuto said (putting Leahy right in front of Cheney), I think this will serve Cheney well. Having to look at Leahy's face I imagine would stoke anyone's fire in the belly.
