KRAKOW, Poland - Ukrainian President Viktor Yushchenko is an "ally of freedom's cause," Vice President Dick Cheney (news - web sites) said Wednesday in toasting the new leader, who leans toward the West yet plans to maintain his nation's historic ties with Russia.


Echoing President Bush (news - web sites)'s inaugural address, Cheney talked about overcoming tyranny and hatred in his remarks during a meeting with the new leader of the former Soviet republic and, earlier, at a reception with survivors of the Holocaust.


"What President Yushchenko has accomplished is remarkable and inspiring and there are great tasks ahead," Cheney said in an appearance with the leader, who survived a nearly fatal poisoning to emerge victorious in a bitterly disputed election. "Free nations stood with him as he made his just demands that the voice of the people be heard."


Standing side-by-side with the Ukrainian leader at dual podiums in a cultural center, Cheney said, "President Yushchenko is an ally in freedom's cause and President Bush and the American people stand with him."

New Spanish government pulls out of Iraq = enemy of freedom

New Ukranian government pulls out of Iraq = ally of freedom

Mr. Orwell would be proud.

1. Well, since he's bought and paid for by US, of course he's an ally

What else?

2. Ukrain wants to join the EU.

Being friends with the U.S. could get in their way.

3. To hear those monsters talk of "freedom"

Now I know EXACTLY what a Soviet Citizen felt when he heard Stalin talk the same way, or a German listening to Hitler tell of his dep love of freedom.

Disgusting doesn't even cover it.

4. Hope Yeschenko tells Cheney

To practice what he preaches....

oh yeah and to go to HELL.

Wish OUR leaders could "demand(s) that the voice of the people be heard." hypocrit....

I personally am relying on foreign countries and leaders to call our administration on its lies, hypocrisy and greed... Cause, lord knows, no Republican can acknowledge the truth cause they can't let go of the principles of their golden boy.

Oh yeah and in the end, God will call all of them on their hypocrisy and evil and you know where they are going.....
