Dick Cheney has been another on my scorn list. In an interview on NBC this week, he cracked the door open just a bit when he said he thought it might be worth considering limiting the size of ammunition magazines for semi-automatic guns. Noting that we did have that in effect from 1994-2004, when it was allowed to expire, he said we should be very careful (of what, he didn't say; I guess the passions of the NRA) in returning to that limitation.
I also give him credit for supporting gay rights and gay marriage. Thanks to daughter Mary for that.
Also in the interview, Cheney said that he will have to make a decision about going for a heart transplant. The heart pump that he had installed last year was originally intended to buy time for those waiting for a transplant. Now, as Cheney points out, the technology has improved to the extent that it is possible to live on the pump much longer. But, he says, it does limit his walking around. So he may consider the transplant option.
That's it. No scorn, nothing negative this time.
