He's a user and abuser who effectively exploits the situation for all it's worth

Well, I hope he's unelected in a few days but as to being a user and abuser you might be failing to acknowledge in 2000 Cheney made charitable contributions of $7,841,646 and, I think, has made contributions of about $350,000 per year since.

I agree those contributions are part of a tax strategy but that doesn't diminish the fact of the gift.

The CBC, by the way, was taken to task in a National Post editorial a few days ago for pronounced bias in its presentation of the USA election. Its a subscriber only link. They mentioned the Cheney documentary as part of their case.
