Cheney Hostpitalized... Again
I don't know if it's just me, but every time I see Vice President Dick Cheney's name in the news it is due to a heart attack or some such related occurance. If you remember back in Clinton's presidency, Al Gore (Yes, he invented the internet) would actually participate in extra curricular events in order to get his name out there and support the administration at that time. Honestly, I cannot for the life of me remember when the last time I read in the news that Cheney was doing anything other than having a heart attack or triple bypass surgery. But don't just take my word for it.

ah. that is some serious b.s. and why is it that Al Gore was/is always seen/portrayed as a fruit loop? (i suppose it could be his alleged invention, but it could have just have easily been the G.O.P.'s outward jealousy of Gore's full head of hair.) I have an inherent fear that the damn presidency is far more like Wag the Dog than any politician would ever let on in a million years, and that Cheney is a sympathy card. I mean, aren't we entitled to information surrounding the wellbeing of the leaders of our nation???? I'm so tired of being in this flock of sheep. I really hope he gets well soon... so he can do his damn job like the rest of working-class America.
Fair and Balanced News?
If you want to see what he says he's done, you can check it out at:

It looks like he actually HAS done some stuff - but I admit that pretty much the only things I have seen covered by the media have been illness-related for him...
Cheney evidently thinks that he has done some stuff. The official list is at:

However, I have to agree that I don't remember seeing anything other than his medical issues in the media.
I wonder why that is? Maybe because he's not young and dynamic. A little too boring for TV, maybe. (?)
