Cheney

"WASHINGTON (AP) - Dick Cheney refuses to be a has-been.

The former vice president's voice appears to carry even more weight than it did in the waning days of the Bush administration.

Some people want him to be quiet and disappear. Others are cheering the public relations tour that Cheney began halfway through President Barack Obama's first 100 days, defending the Bush administration's harsh interrogation tactics and other anti-terrorism policies.

Vice presidents typically fade away quietly.

Not Cheney."

That is because he was not the vice president... he was the president...

Hubble?

Will the Hubble actually be steered into the ocean?

This is about a subject altogether different, however, I believe that this ought to be asked. For a common communications satellite, sure, whatever, destroy it. For the Hubble? It ought to be recovered and brought back to Earth to be placed in a museum!
