Anyone have any ideas where they stuffed Cheney? He’s just sort of disappeared, which just goes to show you that the Office of the Vice President is about as useless as a WWF referee. ---

Last I heard he was on a yacht in the Mediterranean with beautiful naked women mud-wrestling to see who got to sit on his lap next. > [@](#): > > which just goes to show you that the Office of the Vice President is about as useless as a WWF referee. Well, since you don’t know where he’s at or what he’s doing, why do you assume that he’s doing nothing useful? It could be, you know, _secret_. ---

If they didn’t care about the vice-president, the government would be trotting him about to make personal appearances. Instead it’s the president who goes out a bit in public and the VP hunkers down. Which sort of makes you wonder who really is calling the shots here? ---

Well the VP does cast the tiebreaker in the Senate so I guess if there is tie this week or something they’d have to unearth him, bring him back here to DC and then bury him again. ---

The actual General Answer is that he has gone to an undisclosed location so he and the President are not in the same burg at the same time. But this thread was a troll, and now it’s closed.
