Where's Cheney? Down in the bunker?

Fondling the loot? Running the shadow government? Hiding the weapons? Coaching the Saddam lookalike we "found"?

Russert asks Rummy on MTP:

MR. RUSSERT: Vice President Cheney did say on this program they have reconstituted their nuclear weapons. Whether he misspoke or not, I’ll ask him next time he’s here.
SEC’Y RUMSFELD: Yeah.
MR. RUSSERT: But he did make that phrase. Only one time on the program he said it, five other times he said program.
SEC’Y RUMSFELD: I’m sure he meant...
MR. RUSSERT: One time he said weapons.
SEC’Y RUMSFELD: I’m sure he meant program.

Hmmm... Misspoke... More lies to parse! It's hard work, being a citizen ...

UPDATE: Alert reader erik (conservative) references spinsanity for the case that Cheney did "misspeak."
