I've heard gossip (not substantiated) to the effect that Dick Cheney's motorcade drives at hazardous speed and has menaced pedestrians and other motorists.  But then he also shoots people accidentally :-)  Although as a buddy at work said, when Left Blogistan was asking this morning why Cheney could shoot someone (over the weekend) and the story takes two days to come out -- "No, that's not really about Cheney, that's about Texas.  Shooting people is not such a big deal there."

Ah, those inscrutable Occidentals.  They just don't place the same value on human life as the rest of us :-)

The difference between theory and practise in practise ...
