Why It's Called the Stupid Party
Earl reports on Dick Cheney's split with the president on the Federal Marriage Amendment. As for me I am all for sending him back to an undisclosed location.

The Left would accuse Bush of jettisoning Cheney from the ticket because he dissented (sortof) about "writing prejudice into the constitution" and we can tell from the cadre of pro-aborts getting top-billing at the convention that Bush wants to project a "kinder, gentler" image to the swing voters on social issues.
Plus, with some of the names being floated as Cheney replacement (McCain and [urgh!] Guiliani), we'd very possibly be worse off if Cheney were sent packing.
