Cheney writes no memos

http://www.examiner.com/blogs/Yeas_and_Nays/2007/9/17/Cheney-writes-no-memos

Anyone awaiting an anthology of Vice President Dick Cheney’s papers might be in for a disappointment.

Speaking on Friday at the Gerald R. Ford Presidential Library & Museum in Grand Rapids, Mich., Cheney said that because he served as President Ford’s chief of staff, “researchers like to come and dig through my files, to see if anything interesting turns up.”

“I want to wish them luck,” he quipped, eliciting laughter from the crowd, “but the files are pretty thin. I learned early on that if you don’t want your memos to get you in trouble some day, just don’t write any.”

How about audio recordings? He must have plenty of those.

2. Covering his ass from the outset; sounds like he knew he'd be
involved in things that should never see the light of day.

3. It amazes me that this criminal can brag about not leaving fingerprints
that would help convict him of his crimes.

To laughter and applause, no doubt

4. How does a man with as many heart operations as he has had, manage to
have a good memory on anthing? He's got to write down something, somewhere.

6. I pray every day that the battery in his defibrillator
stops working. He is the sorriest excuse for a human being that ever lived. And, his wife Lynne is a close second.
