Imperial Dick

Vice President Cheney isn't just the most despised politician in America - his neighbors can't stand him either. According to well-to-do residents in St. Michaels, MD. Dick and Lynne Cheney are being blamed for stopping traffic, keeping neighbors in their homes while their motorcade passes by, and for disrupting sleepers with their Chinook helicopters. “I've had great big helicopters fly over my house at 3 o'clock in the morning. I can tell you I'm not happy. They're very noisy. The dogs start barking, and we can't get back to sleep.” says a disgruntled neighbor, who lives near Ballintober, the Cheneys' $2.7 million estate.

The neighbor continued: “When they travel, the Secret Service clears Church Neck Road and prevents people from leaving their property. When they drive into town, people are actually told to stay inside their houses until the Cheneys go by. And I hear that two weeks ago, they told the DNR Police to keep their boats away from Cheney's house because it was ruining his view.”

Well, spying on fellow citizens, finding out their political affiliations , and torturing people apparently isn't bad enough. Dickies' got to tell people where to moor their boats also.
