Why has no journalist asked about Dick Cheney's whereabouts?

[Nikki Stone 1]

I would think that would be an obvious question.

1. Why hasn't anyone asked about the journalists whereabouts?

I think that would be an honest and obvious question.

[eleny]

2. Fear of spontaneous combustion?

8. Seriously. An AWOL VP during the greatest diasaster in our lifetimes is

certainly newsworthy.

[eleny]

12. In all honesty...

I pictured the journalists asking W your question - and W went up in flames. It's an incendiary question because it points out his deep inadequacy. I think W would become furious and I hope someone asks it.

3. Because he is inconsequential. Let him disappear. n/t

4. Why bother? The evil bastard is out planning the new venture...

To build the biggest oil refinery for the oil industry ever seen.:grr:

Right over New Orlean's civilization I might add. Here comes a new billion dollar condo for him!

10. Proof? Link?

Thanks.

He also just bought a new 3 million dollar mansion beside Rumsfeld's house.

5. Someone posted a Washington Post article which said

he was shopping for a 3 million dollar mansion with his wife in this past week. I kid you not. It should be around here somewhere.

6. Too bad they didn't buy one in N.O. and sign the papers on

the day before the hurricane :evilgrin:

15. Oh, if only! nt

Where the Rumsfelds Retreat, The Cheneys Soon Could Follow

ST. MICHAELS, Md. -- They've grown used to having a secretary of defense in their midst -- the way his weekend estate is tucked behind a bend in the road, how he takes casual walks tailed by dark SUVs. Now, residents of this Eastern Shore retreat are preparing for someone even bigger to buy a house down the road: the vice president.

"I'd heard it was going to close either Tuesday or Wednesday of this week," Carroll Hurley, a funeral home owner, said Saturday, seated with his breakfast gang at the Carpenter Street saloon and restaurant.

Whether it's true -- that Dick and Lynne Cheney are buying an estate here -- could not be confirmed. Those closest to the deal -- Cheney's office, the purported sellers, the listing agent -- aren't talking. Hurley admits he's not certain: "All I have is hearsay. It wouldn't stand up in court." Still, a nosy visit here leaves a person with one of two possibilities: Either the Cheneys are coming or a lot of people have bad information. Police Chief Ed Henry -- who breakfasted along with Hurley -- even referred to the lot in question as "Cheney's house."

The house, listed at $2.9 million, backs up in spectacular fashion to an inlet of the Chesapeake Bay. "Right out by Rumsfeld's," said Charles Mangold Sr., whose Benson & Mangold agency brokers high-end estates in the area. "It's under contract, but he hasn't settled yet."
