"The vice president critiqued some press coverage of the staff report. He
did not criticize the commission's work."

That line pretty much sums it up, the commission and Cheney are both
criticizing the press reports not the commission's findings, the commission
did find links between Al Qaeda and Iraq, just not with regard to Sept 11th.

The media always claims the administration claimed Iraq helped them plan the
attacks, but I don't recall the administration ever saying that, only that
Saddam did allow some Al Qaeda to live and operate from Iraq, these are
items the commission's report never denies as that is out of the scope of
their investigation.

They are the 9/11 commission, not the Al Qaeda/Iraq link commission.
