He served the president and the vice president well. There is now an indictment. And he is entitled to the benefit of the presumption of innocence,

Cheney has a real history of questionable hunting behavior. He is apparently obsessed with hunting and is a regular patron of canned hunts. We don't like to see the Vice President of the U.S. providing pretty explicit endorsement of this practice, because canned hunting violates all the rhetoric that hunters use to justify themselves. Hunting is supposed to involve a fair chase with the animal having an opportunity to evade the hunter. But this eliminates the possibility of failure.

Apparently the employees who threw this pot luck were planning to take it home and were offended by my action.

These employees ended up telling their manager, who told her vice president about what I did.

The idea of a mentally ill vice president who suffers in complete isolation was obviously sparked by the behaviors I witnessed by Sarah Palin.

It just depends on the games and how they're playing or how we're playing. Some games are closer than others. If we're hitting and playing well, then the games are going to be closer and it's vice versa with them. They're a lot bigger, but we definitely have a fun time. It's hard because we play seven days a week. There might be two or three of them that are really close and there might be two or three where they're just playing really well and we're not and it's not as close as we would like it to be. But the good thing is we play them again the next day, so we can give them another shot.

There was general consternation, if one can put it that way, especially amongst those people who knew little of Vice President Truman, about the new President Truman.
