This whole Cheney duck hunting story has got major legs for one reason: secrecy. Cheney is a disciple of the "the more the people don't know the better" school of thought, in fact he has based his entire political career on it.
Back when he was picked to be VP in 2000 to today's events, Cheney has displayed an almost cavalier disregard for honesty. He has made this quite clear in the five years he has been Vice President. To Cheney, government only needs to know your business not the other way around. So, we have a president who wants a fiefdom and a VP who operates in the shadows. Boy, am I glad we have a representative government!
