...been out of sight, but right by the President's side. After Cheney's Meet the Press performance, word leaked that Bush advisers Karen Hughes and Karl Rove thought he had been too good--that he had seemed too fully in charge. Both have denied trying to rein him in, but after that, Cheney faded from public view, while retaining his powerful bond with Bush. (Hughes and Rove, however, no longer take part in the President's weightiest deliberations, because they're not part of his national-security team.) Cheney is the heart of that team--he's the swing...

...State Department is certainly allowed to request that Qatar rein in its reporting," says Belle Adler, a journalism professor at Northeastern University in Boston. "The problem is when and if the U.S. government instigates legal proceeding against another country's journalists, doing things like subpoenaing reporters, revoking licenses, or throwing people in jail.
