Playing Footsie With the VP
Froomkin, commenting on a Time Magazine puffball interview with the vice president that included seemingly serious encouragment to run for the presidency:
Here is a vice president who has repeatedly misled the public about Iraq, arguably exercises all the power of the presidency in almost complete secrecy, quite possibly stage-managed the leaking of a CIA agent's identity for political purposes, holds inexplicable sway over Congress, appears to be in a state of denial that transcends even that of the president, and has basically no credibility left with the American people -- and Time plays footsie with him.
