Cookin' the books and everything else he can!
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - A fire damaged Vice President Dick Cheney's ceremonial office in a building overlooking the White House on Wednesday and forced hundreds of government workers to evacuate.

Cheney was in the White House with President George W. Bush receiving their morning intelligence briefings when the blaze began and people were evacuated from the Eisenhower Executive Office Building safely, White House officials said.

Thick black smoke billowed from the second floor of the hulking granite structure, which is part of the White House compound and faces the West Wing of the presidential mansion.

2. Could the key word here be "ceremonial"?
If it was just a ceremonial office one would not expect any papers of importance to be in the room.
