1. We'll know next week
when either he shows up in Canada, or he does not:

When U.S. Vice-President Dick Cheney visits Alberta in September, he will attend a fundraising dinner organized by right-wing think tank the Fraser Institute.

"It's a private dinner for a few friends of ours with the vice-president," said Michael Walker, executive director of the Fraser Institute. "It's by invitation-only."

Guests will pay $5,000-$10,000 a plate for the dinner, scheduled for Sept 8.

2. It's strange that he hasn't at least pretended to care publicly...
I suspect he might be like Leonid Brezhnev - he's died, but they're just wheeling out cardboard cutouts of him to convince the public he's okay.

Could explain why Bush has been completely fucking up these last few weeks in the face of Cindy Sheehan and the Hurricane...

3. One wonders. I think we would have seen Gore along with Clinton
if this had happened on their watch.

4. Going after Alberta's oil and setting up no-bid Halliburton contracts...
According to some, anyway. Not very much photographic evidence of his still being alive.

7. He is on vacation or so some item in paper said.
The high paid vacation people can not come back for such things.
