Dick Cheney: The Extremely Right Man

By Todd Gitlin - September 4, 2006, 7:41AM

Sid Blumenthal reports that Dick Cheney, always thinking ahead, has chosen an official biographer: Stephen Hayes, author of such discerning appraisals as "Dick Cheney Was Right" in Rupert Murdoch's Weekly Standard.

I can hardly wait to file this one on the shelf next to:

The Right Man, by David Frum

Rebel-in-Chief, by Fred Barnes

Lyndon, the One, by Jack Valenti

Nixon, the Real One, by Mark Helprin

I Remember "Mama," by Clyde Tolson

and my all-time favorite,

Spiro! by William Safire.

(Note: The first two on this list actually exist.)

I presume the title will be The Right Hand of Darkness.

Spiro! Now that's comedy.

Personally, I can't wait for Rummy's: Gosh! Who Knew? My Life with the Unknown Knowables
