So here's this story about a new center for international studies at the University of Wyoming that former VP Dick Cheney is promoting. And it gets me wondering, what would such a place teach?
Lynne & Dick Cheney are due in Laramie, Wyo., on Thursday for the dedication of the Cheney International Center. And why not? Even Nixon got a nice library.
Protesters are out in force. Even those who want a center wonder whether having Cheney's name on it would promote the international understanding that such a center ought to stand for. It might, you know, make many recoil and run away from it. Happily, the Cheney's put up a good chunk of money for its funding.
So, an unconventional course of study might be expected at the Cheney Center.
