If that is the justification, they why can't they just say it? All they have to do is utter one simple sentence, and the matter would be settled. Poof! You don't have to hear the reporters repeatedly asking you the same question any more. And as an added bonus, you don't have to look like an idiot in front of the entire world for not understanding a simple question, even when it was repeated to you in no uncertain terms.

I think the real question is, "What do Bush/Cheney think will be lost by separating them?" They are the ones who insisted so adamantly that this is the way it should happen, so I think the burden is on them to explain it to the American people. If they've got nothing to hide, why is it so hard to get a straight answer out of them on this point?
