As the WaPo's Cheney blog continues, so does the shocked reaction in the blogosphere. Click the link for an especially good reflection on just how the Veep's machinations have undermined his colleagues in the Executive Branch (if that's really where he works) and how they have required Condi and Colin to accept indignities over which lesser public figures would have resigned in protest a thousand times over.
My favorite bit, though, is not in the blog post, but in a comment by somebody called "Ugh." I'm stealing it:
"I will just note that this series makes Bush look like a buffoon (not that that wasn't obvious before), is someone going to bring it up at the White House briefings (I would assume that happened today) or at his next press conference (assuming he ever holds another one).
" 'Mr. President, How does it feel to be the first figurehead President in United States history?'
" 'Mr. President, Should we just start adressing you as 'Mr. Sock-Puppet' from now on?' "
