Face it. Most Americans don't know Dick.

Unfortunately, we do.

It's not "Bush hating." It's a little thing called "observing reality."

The reality of the situation is that if Cheney obviously covers something up rather than simply makes it go away or bullies his way out of it, he must have a good reason. If Cheney ever admits wrongdoing of any kind, he must have actually done FAR worse. And if Cheney ever makes his personal foibles the story, it's because there's some other story (or part of the story) that he want us to ignore.

Of course, there's no way to be completely certain of these statements. As David Hume argued long ago, just because the sun has risen every other day of your life, it doesn't mean for sure that it'll rise tomorrow, However, if something happens 1000 times in a row, it's a pretty good bet that it will also happen on try 1001. Even people who don't know Dick know that.

1. Well this we can be sure of-------------He did not shoot his ego

That the bad day in his life is when he did this and not the day he sent young Am. to die in a war he lied about shows me that. He really does show who is also in control at the WH. Running things right and just controlling things with power are not the same thing.

2. Patriot Act renewed. FISA "fixed." Illegal wiretap investigation dropped.

Now we know why Cheney shot JR.
