You can count on it, Cheney always delivers. One of the most wonderful things about him is, that he just flat doesn't care if the press or any liberal on earth likes him or not.

Thanks.
Wolf Blitzer said the casket is draped with a flag that flew over the Capitol at the 1981 Inaugural.

Very nice eulogy by Vice President Cheney. The funeral has brought more than one tear to my eye.

I believe he is in a wheelchair not a regular chair. I was talking about holding his head with his hand and the sour puss look on his face

Can you imagine how Ronnie is feeling, watching her grieve and not being able to hold her. That breaks my heart. But he also knows she'll be alright soon. I find it hard to imagine she'll be with us much longer, and she has earned her rest.
