Cheney Talks Now, Heard Later

The Vice President, no doubt spooked by the atypical tone recently taken by the normally docile beltway press, has chosen to speak to the nation via thinly disguised republican spokesman Brit Hume of Fox News. To no ones surprise, the infomercial for Vice's defense of his hunting skills will not be broadcast live. Hume, famous for echoing and amplifying the latest admin talking points, would never take the chance that something embarrassing to his mentors at the White House could slip out inadvertently.
