When was the last public Cheney sighting?
I haven't heard anything from the Penguin in some time. Quack, quack, quack, quack.

1. He's coming out of the woodwork to meet with Sharon in DC:

PM arrives in Washington to meet with Cheney
Tue., April 12, 2005 Nisan 3, 5765; Israel Time: 11:28 (EST+8)

By Aluf Benn and Nathan Guttman, Haaretz Correspondents, Haaretz Staff and Agencies

Prime Minister Ariel Sharon arrived in Washington Tuesday to meet with U.S. Vice President Richard Cheney as part of an ongoing visit to the United States, Israel Radio said.

Sharon and U.S. President George W. Bush remained at odds over the issue of construction in the settlements, after their meeting Monday at the president's ranch in Crawford.

3. Maybe he's redecorating the bunker.
Besides, he's busy running the government into the ground in DC while the blivet** is frolicking on his pseudoranch in Texas. He might even sweat occasionally, which is quite an accomplishment for a poorly constructed android.

10. Exactly,
Why would Sharon meet with the lowly vice president, except the fact that he is the one calling the shots. That's been a given all through history, that the vice president is just a figure head. Think about it. Why are they even letting this out of the bag, it is such a dead give away about who is in charge.

7. I would imagine the expenses
incurred hauling that zombie out with the invisible strings and the manpower required to operate him especially with the price of fuel may be keeping him in whatever box they place him in after an "appearance".

Or he could have gotten a part time job as a whack a mole. He does only seem to pop his head out of the bunker like a prairie dog or a whack a mole every now and again, doesn't he?

8. Not exactly public, but he and Condi
were both at the pigfarm yesterday.

George was allowed to drive in the driveway again. 'He's a good driver' (Rainman reference). Here he is pointing out a bug squished on the windshield



Busy George also handed out plastic chocolates wrapped in the Israeli flag because the dogs ate the plastic turkey



During the news conference, Condi signals to George from the porch, while Dick takes a casual pose leaning against a column



George indicates he got the message
