That would be a threadjack, but not difficult. Monks, fundraising, illegal aliens, Loral, Charlie Trie, Johnny Huang, missile technology, China, and other topics (in conjunction with Gore) are all Google-worthy.
I'm trying not to be rude when I say this, so please don't interpret it that way, but when I see people ignore all of the above and then call Cheney a "puppet master" like that was a crime, I lose interest.

Personally, I think Cheney is a great puppet master that George the 1st could control but George the 2nd either can't or doesn't want to. I can see from Elphaba's OP that there are some warnings from cheney's past that should be explored and talked about. That perhaps, he hungers for the power and control. I also wonder when the time comes in '08 for him to step aside if he tries to stay with Rice or the GOP nominee or if he steps down. I think Rice would be easily manipulated by him, McCain wouldn't and that is one reason the Neocons attack McCain, or anyone in the party that Cheney can not easily manipulate.

While I disagree with some of McCain's positions (i'm actually more of a fan of Joe Lieberman), it isn't a hard choice if the next election is McCain vs. Hillary.
McCain will have MASSIVE Republican support in that scenario.
