In 2001, shortly after his inauguration, Dick Cheney met with Dan Quayle, who had of course served in the same position eight years earlier. Quayle wanted to offer some advice, one vice president to another.

"Dick, you know, you're going to be doing a lot of this international traveling, you're going to be doing all this political fundraising ... you'll be going to the funerals," Quayle said. "We've all done it."

Recalling the conversation, Quayle said Cheney "got that little smile," before replying, "I have a different understanding with the president."

1. I'm sure the first thing Cheney* thought about was getting input

from an experienced former vice-president named Dan Quayle.

On second thought, when the dust settles, maybe Cheney* will wish that he stuck to foreign travel, fund-raising and funerals.

2. I want Cheney to wish more than that...

preferably I hope he wishes he were dead

3. I bet he did have a different understanding ...

He had it all planned, no doubt. Waiting in the wings.
