Cheney charged that some Senate Democrats were 'dishonest and reprehensible' for suggesting that President Bush lied to the nation about going to war in Iraq. Cheney toned down the attack on House Democrat John Murtha, who's calling for a withdrawal from Iraq, adding that Murtha is a 'patriot' who's engaging in legitimate debate. (AP Photo/J.
