Cheney's Doc a Dope Fiend
In case you heard an earlier story suggesting that this guy "was also Al Gore's doctor, so you damn liberals can't say anything about this"...well, that turns out not to be the case.

WASHINGTON, July 4 - Vice President Dick Cheney's personal doctor, who four years ago declared Mr. Cheney "up to the task of the most sensitive public office" despite a history of heart disease, was battling an addiction to prescription drugs at the time and has recently been dropped from the vice president's medical team, according to officials at the hospital where he practiced.Okay, which goes better here: Comparisons to Rush or similarities to Elvis? Compare and contrast. And oh yeah...if this doc has been "in treatment" and doing the pee-in-the-bottle routine since 1999, what exactly did he do with the $45k worth of narcotic nasal sprays he bought off the Internet? Wouldn't that show up in a pee test if HE was the one taking the stuff? Just wonderin'.
