Them. He did not say Cheney only.
Kucinich was only permitted to speak that one time during the debate's entire second hour.
A few questions later, Biden got applause for refusing to answer a CNN question and insisting that he would answer the question of the audience member.
Biden also said he had a plan to end the war that could begin the day he becomes president, a promise made by most of the candidates on the stage. If an intelligent moderator were asking the questions at these debates, the fact that the Senate now faces a vote on another $50 billion for the occupation would have come up, and the fact that neither Biden nor Obama nor Clinton nor Dodd is willing to filibuster it would have been brought up. Instead, the entire debate included no mention of Wednesday's vote in the House or the upcoming vote in the Senate. A moderator who loves to catch candidates in even the most trivial contradictions had not one word to say about the topic of funding an occupation they all claim to want to end.
Instead, time was found for an audience member to ask Clinton whether she "prefers diamonds or pearls."
Wolf Blitzer lost this one. The ranks of non-voters probably won.
