Bush & Cheney Meet at Prez Library Launch
Yahoo! News blog, The Ticket, reports:
Former Vice President span style="color: #366388;">Dick Cheney< looked thinner at a groundbreaking ceremony Tuesday in Dallas for George W. Bush's planned presidential library. It was the first time Cheney has been seen at a major public event since he underwent surgery in July to install a heart pump implant.
The former VP, on hand to introduce Bush at the ceremony, made no mention of the quarrels Bush wrote of in his recently released memoir, "span style="color: #366388;">Decision Points<." Rather, he praised Bush as a president who handled his job "with courage, with clarity and with strength of heart."
Though Cheney looked gaunt and somewhat frail compared with his days in the White House, he was his usual self, even managing to get in a dig at span style="color: #366388;">President Obama's stimulus plan< at the ceremony. "This may be the only shovel-ready project in America," Cheney joked at one point, looking over his shoulder at Bush. According to the Bush foundation, the estimated $300 million library is already fully funded with private donations.
