Cheney to Handle Reins of Power

I heard this on the radio just about an hour ago. It is the single most disconcerting thing that I have heard all day. Apparently Bush is going to be under anesthesia while he has a colonoscopy at Camp David.

You can read the story here.

Ordinarily I am not to prone to conspiracy theories but this is Cheney we are talking about here. I mean Mr. Shadow government. Dr. No Bid Contract.

I cannot believe that this man has not been investigated. He was in the Nixon White House and it is also rumored that Cheney is trying to restore executive power to the pre-Watergate era.

While most of this is not clear, it is certain that Cheney wields more power than any Vice-President in recent memory.
