...couple suffering great misfortune turns to desperate measures in “Fun with Dick and Jane.” With a terrific combination of Jim Carrey-isms and social satire, the title says it all. Dick (Carrey) and Jane (Tea Leoni), along with their bilingual son and maid, seem to have the perfect life. And after years of paying his dues, Dick is promoted to vice president at Globodyne, a huge corporation that consolidates media properties.

The indictment of his former top aide, Scooter Libby, "hit him hard. Scooter was like a brother and a policy soul mate," says a Cheney friend. The Vice President once worked the same famously long hours as Rove and chief of staff Andrew Card, but now he has scaled back his White House schedule to being there "when he needs to be," the friend says, and otherwise keeps...
