Does Dick Cheney have a nickname? It's a shame that "Very Tricky Dicky" hasn't caught on.

Anyway, the Vice President will roll into town Monday for a fundraiser at the airport Embassy Suites. I did a quick scan through various local media outlets and, so far, only the Mercury and the Portland Peaceful Response Coalition seem to care. Is the later organizing a protest? You betcha'.

Also: this is interesting....

...but this is somehow more interesting.
