Cheney is right...VP office is not part of executive branch of US Government...
It is the CEO office of Halliburton.

2. This has probably been stated before, but...
If the VP is not part of the Executive branch, that clearly means that he can't assert Executive Privilege, right?

3. certainly not in the face of the legislative branch's request
if he's a legislative branch member, then Congress has the right to patrol it's own, and he is a part of Congress. and he certainly shouldn't have offices in the buildings of the executive branch.

4. Not only that, but we've been paying, however reluctantly, all this
time for a member of the executive branch; he needs to pay back the money he took under false pretenses and to go away, since he's not what we thought we hired. Means he's guilty of fraud.
