Who's in charge?
It seems to me that the more we learn about the Cheney shooting, the more clear it becomes that Cheney, not Bush, is running things. This article in today's NY Times is a case in point. Bush's staff is really p-o'd at Cheney and his staff, but they don't have the power to do anything about it. Clearly, Cheney is ruling the roost. Here's an example:
The tension between President Bush's staff and Mr. Cheney's has been palpable, with White House officials whispering to reporters about how they tried to handle the news of the shooting differently. Mr. McClellan, while being careful not to cross Mr. Cheney or his aides directly, has made a point of reminding reporters of how he dealt with Mr. Bush's bicycle accident last summer, when the president collided with a Scottish policeman at the G-8 summit.
