Among pols of the last 20 years, Cheney is the one I'd best like to sit down and have a cup of coffee with. Bill Clinton is probably #2. |

I agree he's had an interesting career - so did his pal Rumsfeld. Did you read his memoir that came out earlier this year? Cheney's book is out Tuesday, I pre-ordered it on Kindle already. |

I happened to turn the radio on Saturday morning when Peter Sagel was about to have Bill Clinton play on a quiz show they host - but since he had the former President on the line, he felt compelled to ask him the two questions he'd always wanted to ask... "Ok, did Oswald act alone and what's going on at Roswell?" Clinton said as far as he could tell, Oswald acted alone and then noted that he helped celebrate the anniversary at Roswell. Sagal asked, "so how was it having lunch the aliens?" Made me chuckle. |

Condi's not happy. By the way, I'm 75pp or so into the book now. I'm finding the parts about the Nixon and Ford administrations to be very interesting. Rummy's was too. |

I was in Roswell a few weeks ago working on a wireless project. We had a guy from India with us who had to get out and take a picture of the alien museum. |

Wow, the press coverage focused on the "tearfully" apologetic moment presumably because its so easy to quote. But he spends almost an entire chapter taking her down on North Korea. |
