Cheney and the big love

It should come as no surprise that Vader Veep Dick Cheney isn't big on all the touchy feely stuff. Apparently though his lack of compassion has no bounds.

According to Barton Gellman in his new book; Angler: the Cheney Vice Presidency, George Bush asked Cheney to spearhead a cabinet level task force days after Hurricane Katrina hammered New Orleans, Cheney refused and indicated that the extent of his interest in Hurricane Katrina devastation would be to go on a fact finding mission if requested by President Bush.

Besides his reluctance to cut short his vacation when Katrina hit, and his continued downplaying of the Katrina devastation, reports suggest that Cheney has tried to kill proposals increasing aid to Hurricane Katrina Victims.

Can't you just feel the Cheney love!
