I may think he's wrong about a LOT of things and I don't particularly care for many of his actions - but the guy was still the Vice President of the United States and, as such, deserves some amount of respect. I don't have to like it - but I know how I'd act if I suddenly met him. ...and no, it wouldn't make the news.
He was also on Leno a week or so ago promoting his book. Of course Jay had a lot of good 1 liners prior to the visit. From what I recall hearing, Cheney was critical of Powell and Condoleeza Rice. Has anyone actually read the book?
It is heavily discounted on Amazon. Was $35, now $19.20. I think I will wait for the garage sale clearance price.
