So, besides a couple of speeches and a gun accident, what's the VP
done recently? Does anyone know what he actually does, as in his job, you know what I mean?

He's always incommunicado, which raises questions, and he holds a notoriously impotent post, yet is seen as the mover behind the throne.

Most political pundits feel he has engineered the Executive level access for a neocon takeover of the Administration.

Yet no one knows what he does...

It'd be interesting if this hunting brouhaha shed a little light on
Mr. Cheney's "on the clock" job preformance.

2. It takes a great deal of time, coordination, and effort to do his job.
Arranging no-bid contracts in this country, Iraq, and Afghanistan for Halliburton, its subsidiaries and other private interests is time-consuming, I would imagine. Too bad for him that he didn't put as much coordination into the two different fairy tales he and Armstrong have been spinning about last Saturday.

3. Puppeteer whose main function is to make sure the government
runs properly for Halliburton, Bechtel, the Carlyle Group, and several other multinational corporations.
