A real crack opened between them at that time. One key to this whole house of cards could be that Dick made some promises he couldn't (and can't) keep.

3. It says in here that Dick is
Now this weekend's ruminations on Fox News with Sean Hannity by former Vice President Dick Cheney make more sense, he is in a panic to protect his old chum Donald Rumsfeld.
