...ingesting its essence into the mouth, perhaps swallowing it, then expelling it. Put this way, the act of smoking is, literally, a blow job. And the ritual "smoke after sex" - is this not the reward for all the exertion of coupling? For some smokers, is getting down not the foreplay to lighting up?

While both Bush and Cheney are political creatures, they are of utterly different species. Bush loves the foreplay of politics; Cheney can't stand it. Bush learned it at his father's knee; Cheney came to it much later and as a student. Worse, he was a student of political science, a man trained as a staff member, crunching the numbers, writing about highway reforms.
