JERUSALEM - Vice President Dick Cheney began Easter Sunday with a prayer and the singing of "Amazing Grace" Sunday at a tiny chapel in Jerusalem, then launched into a day of talks about conflict: the Mideast peace process and the rising influence of Iran in the region.

"We are obviously dedicated to doing all we can as an administration to try to move the peace process forward, and obviously actively involved in dealing with the threats that we see emerging in the region — not only threats to Israel, but threats to the United States as well," Cheney, a strong supporter of Israel, said in a meeting with President Shimon Peres.

Cheney began the day with his wife, Lynne, and daughter, Liz, attending a nondenominational service at Lazarist Monastery, which rents out space to the U.S consulate do diplomatic work with the Palestinian Authority.

Afterward, he had breakfast with Israeli opposition leader Benjamin Netanyahu and went to meetings with Peres and Israeli foreign minister Tzipi Livni. Later in the day, Cheney was going to Ramallah in the West Bank to meet with Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas and Palestinian Prime Minister Salam Fayyad.

4. "...at Lazarist Monastery...." He thought they said "Lizardist"

Too bad he didn't trip into the baptismal font and burn his face off in the Holy water.

Are they calling in outside experts to help cleanse the church?

6. Hmmm, now that you mention it...

Maybe we have been going about things from the wrong direction. Instead of impeachment, we should have been arranging for an exorcism.

5. Too funny. It reminds me of a funny exchange about church from the movie, "Sounder"

Taj Mahal plays the role of Ike:

DAVID LEE: What do they do in the white churches, Mama?

REBECCA: Same as we -- they pray.

IKE: You know, one time by mistake I went into a white church down in Row County and to this day I don't know how'n the devil I got outta that church alive.

NATHAN LEE: They probly thought you was crazy.

IKE: I guess so -- but I went home and did me some praying to the Lord. I said, "Lord, I went into this white church down in Row and all I want you to tell me is how I ever got outta there in one piece."

NATHAN LEE: What did the Lord tell you, Ike?

IKE: He said, "I don't know, Ike -- you doin' better'n me, I been tryin' to git in there for 200 years and ain't make it yet!"
