Cheney continues to live in an alternate Universe: In La., Cheney insists Saddam, al-Qaida were linked The Associated Press July 1, 2004 theadvertiser.com NEW ORLEANS (AP) — In a somber speech in a contested state, Vice President Dick Cheney delivered a strong defense of Bush administration foreign policy Thursday, repeating his assertion of ties between Saddam Hussein and al-Qaida and warning that the war on terror will continue into the foreseeable future. Focusing vigorously on an area that has seen a drop in the president’s ratings — national security — Cheney celebrated what he said were the administration’s achievements, but also warned of dire threats to come. “We are engaged in a broader struggle — a global war that will last many years and require our most focused and steadfast efforts,” Cheney told an enthusiastic crowd of fellow Republicans gathered at the D-Day Museum here. “Thousands of terrorists remain at large and are intent on gaining access to increasingly powerful weapons,” Cheney said. “Preventing them from doing so is the challenge of our time.” The partisan speech was the Vice President’s second in ten weeks in a state his campaign and Democrat John Kerry’s have unexpectedly added to the battleground category. Republicans here said Cheney had targeted Louisiana as a swing state, in the context of recent visits to other close states like Missouri and Iowa, and a planned weekend swing through critical Ohio. Initially cast as an easy win for Bush, as in 2000, Kerry is contesting Louisiana, heartened by recent Democratic successes in Senate and governor’s races.
