I think he should consider it. It's a privilge to serve not a right, thats what seperates us from leftist. What is best for the country and the administration needs to be thought of. Cheney stepping down would only strengthen Republican chances in the future anyway.

I do not believe Cheney is "evil" or that he was drunk or any of the other stories the media is spinning but sadly perception IS reality. I expect the media to act that way, they are lazy and the have no diginity.

I'm not convinced that YOU are 'US.'

Suggesting that he step down for this makes you highly suspect, IMHO......

"perception IS reality"

I DO agree with you on that.
And my perception is that the MSM is showing its *ss as usual.

By the way, TV Radiation must still be seeping out.
Stop while you still have an account...;)

So let me get this straight. Although the VP did not break any LAW, did not intentionally harm his friend, did not lie (but was forthcoming in interview with Brit), you think he should resign, because of a PERCEPTION (some) people have?

PERCEPTION is just that- perception. Reality is often a different matter altogether- and without guiding principles, it is easy to get caught UP in perceptions and act on them. People of principle STOP, LOOK and LISTEN before acting- knowing they can't always trust their perceptions.

It would be interesting if Cheney stepped down. Not that I'm suggesting he should, just saying it would turn things on its head for a while.

And that wouldn't be a bad thing.

That is pure nonsense. It's not a mere privilege for a Vice President to serve - the Vice President was elected by the American public to serve as Vice President for four full years, absent death, incapacitation, poor health or impeachment. He's done nothing illegal or impeachable here. Not being proactive with the egomaniacal White House Press Corps might not be smart politics. But it sure isn't a crime.

Vice President Cheney isn't resigning any time soon. Nor should he.

I voted for the VP. It is my right to have him serve his whole term.
