I ask the vice president to stop dodging the issue with legalese, and acknowledge his continued ties with Halliburton to the American people.

I'm the only American alive or dead who presided unhappily over the removal of a vice president and a president.

The President has only 190 million bosses. The Vice President has 190 million and one.

I don't know how many people run for vice president and president and lose both.

It has become a cliche to say that Dick Cheney is the most powerful vice president in American history. Nonetheless, here is a prediction: When the historians really get digging into the paper entrails of the Bush administration -- or possibly when Scooter Libby goes on trial -- those who have intoned that phrase will still be astonished at the extent to which the Office of Vice President Dick Cheney was the center of power inside the White House -- and at the grip it had on foreign and defense policy.

President Obama is the greatest hoax ever perpetrated on the American people.
