Dick Cheney writes in his forthcoming book, In My Time, that he was surprised to learn that President George W. Bush had personally authorized a leak about Iraq strategy to a Washington Post columnist -- "a disclosure that the former vice president believed could be 'a real disservice' to U.S. troops," Politico reports.

Cheney to Bush: "Whoever is leaking information like this to the press is doing a real disservice, Mr. President."

He writes: "A short time later Steve Hadley came into my office and closed the door. He told me that he was the source for Ignatius and that he'd talked to him at the instruction of the president."

1. So are the war crininals running from each other?

I think Cheney knows he is dying and is feeling guilty in his final days. Artificial hearts are to bridge between transplants.

2. It appears one war criminal is trying to sell more books than another

war criminal.

The fact that no shame is admitted for Iraq is disgraceful.

3. Or to allow extra time when a transplant isn't particularly desirable

Neither the pump nor a transplant will compensate for the clogged arteries Cheney undoubtedly has or the lungs damaged from decades of heavy smoking.

He looks like death because he's dying.

4. Yeah...right...because Cheney really gave a damn about the troops.
