BHDC 'Lynne Cheney' File:

cheneycheney2.jpgIt’s long been rumored in Washington political circles (especially Democratic ones) that one of Dick Cheney’s old Halliburton numbers appears in the records of “DC Madam” Deborah Jeane Palfrey, but now questions are multiplying regarding the Cheney matriarch’s faithfulness. New York Magazine this week published a piece by columnist Kurt Andersen, who states at one point, “I’m not talking about idle Schadenfreude, the fleeting, naughty satisfaction one takes, for instance, in Dick Cheney’s shotgun accident or his wife’s extravagant flirtations with a friend of mine over the years or even (forgive me, God) his atrial fibrillation last week.” Andersen is keeping mum on which of his friends Lynne Cheney has been making advances toward, but word is he’s younger and - no surprise - in better health than Dick.

obama-cheney.jpgLynne Cheney must be fuming today that she recently revealed her husband Dick Cheney is related to Barack Obama. After all, the Democratic contender for president has taken to belittling his family ties while on the campaign trail.

Noting that in the next presidential election in 2008, Cheney’s name will not appear on the ballot because he has been around for two terms, Obama said yesterday: “We’ve been trying to hide that cousin thing for a long time.

“Everybody has a black sheep in the family . . . a crazy uncle in the attic,” Obama went on to say. And the crowds went wild.

NY Times:

A profile of Lynne Cheney, the vice president’s wife, that appeared on the CBS News program “Sunday Morning” last weekend included a statement of disclosure. The correspondent, Rita Braver, told viewers that her husband, the Washington lawyer Robert B. Barnett, had represented Ms. Cheney in the publishing deal for her new memoir, “Blue Skies, No Fences,” which served as the main peg for the story.

Yesterday, after questions about the propriety of Ms. Braver’s assignment were raised on several media Web sites, including that of CBS News, the division’s senior vice president for standards, Linda Mason, defended it.

“Rita is the best person to do this interview,” Ms. Mason said, noting that Ms. Braver is a national correspondent for the program who is based in Washington. Ms. Mason added that Rand Morrison, the “Sunday Morning” executive producer, had told her of the piece and the plans for Ms. Braver’s disclosure in advance of it running. “I said it was fine.”

“Not disclosing would have not been fine,” she added.
