Laura Bush doesn't believe polls about Dubya

"I don't really believe those polls. I travel around the country. I see people, I see their responses to my husband. I see their response to me," Laura Bush

"At age 65, Cheney is easily 30 or more pounds overweight, seems to have slacked off on what was once a more rigorous diet, and appears to suffer from recurrent bouts of gout. At a roundtable lunch with reporters a couple of years ago, two who were present say, he cut his buffalo steak in bite-size pieces the moment it arrived, then proceeded to salt each side of each piece."
