Piece of shit Sean Hannity Catapults the Propaganda (Copyright GWB) on China drilling for oil off Florida

Talk about zombie repuglicant talking points. It's impossible that POS Hannity doesn't know what he spews is a lie. Boy is he going to hate the next 8 years.....
On the June 16 edition of his nationally syndicated radio program, Sean Hannity claimed, "[W]e've got China, you know, joining with Cuba, they're drilling 60 miles off our shores of Florida." But as Media Matters for America has noted, Vice President Dick Cheney has reportedly issued a correction for making the same claim. Cheney cited a column by The Washington Post's George Will in a June 11 speech to assert that "oil is being drilled right now 60 miles off the coast of Florida. But we're not doing it, the Chinese are, in cooperation with the Cuban government." According to the Associated Press, Cheney issued a correction on June 12, saying, "It is our understanding that, although Cuba has leased out exploration blocks 60 miles off the coast of southern Florida, which is closer than American firms are allowed to operate in that area, no Chinese firm is drilling there."
