August 31, 2004 -- Secret Service agents last night hauled away a man who got too close to Vice President Dick Cheney in a VIP area at Madison Square Garden. Police sources said the 21-year-old man, who had a pass allowing him into the Garden, had either a knife or some kind of tool on him when he was nabbed as he tried to flee.

A second man, who also had a building pass, was taken into custody for carrying a balloon with fluid inside. Authorities were testing the liquid. Are they sure this wasn't Michael Moore and his full bladder?

When confronted, he said he had to leave to speak at a Planned Parenthood function...

No voting for you Mr. Assassin. That isn't what Jesse Jackson says.

Those of you who saw the convention last night: did you notice that Cheney didn't stand up during at least one ovation? He seemed very tired.

I saw that. It was near the end of the evening and everyone stood (again) in tribute to Vice President Cheney after Giuliani praised his service. Flattery puts one in a slightly uncomfortable position, you never know whether to stand or remain seated. IMHO, he wasn't tired, he was making a judgment call.

Yes, one can never tell if someone may need an abortion at the spur of the moment, hence the knife.

Police sources said the man, who had a pass allowing him into the Garden, had either a knife or some kind of tool on him when he was nabbed as he tried to flee. Did he also happent to mention, at any point, whether he'd actually been in Cambodia in '68 or not...? :)
