Is there a worse interviewer than John King?
The guy challenged Cheney on absolutely none of his bullshit.

The John is more pleasant to look at in an empty headed talking puppet kind of a way.

11. Well, even by doing "not much," and not being confrontational, he got some superb quotes out of the
jerk.

You don't always have to go ballistic on someone--all they do is get defensive and you come off looking like a bully.

"Stuff happens?" That was fucking priceless.

That interview will stand as a damning and permanent testament to how little of a shit Cheney cared for the American people. It is an historical document of sorts, live and in color. And King got it without being an asshole and without breaking a sweat. The contrast between the last administration and this one couldn't be more profound. Cheney used his own words to hang himself.
