Dick CHeney
Yes, I know this name strikes fear and hatred into you liberals, but theres been some interesting discussion recently about him, most likely because of his appearance on Fox News Sunday last weekend. Personally, I thought he was great. This was the exact personality we needed in the White House advising a President inexperienced in war, when we were attacked on 911.
I truly dont understand all the huff about him being “dangerous” or having more power than any other VP. Constitutionaly he has no power. Congress gave the VP an office and some money and staff. Beyond that he has no official authority to make any decisions, beyond what the President gives him. Granted Bush gave him some leeway, but can anyone give any real example of actions that Cheney took which were beyond his authority?
There seems to be a lot of myth about Cheney, with no real facts behind it.
