Dick Cheney's Sense of Humor
Then there was Vice President Cheney's speech in Pennsylvania on Aug. 25, when he appeared to confuse Kerry with the other Massachusetts senator, arch-liberal Edward M. Kennedy.

But the Web site Spinsanity.com notes that Cheney made the very same "mistake" on Aug. 14 in Nevada while discussing votes on intelligence. "Not even Senator Kerry -- excuse me -- not even Senator Kennedy would vote for it. Sometimes I get them confused." Spinsanity wondered if Cheney is "intentionally confusing the names of two people to blur the distinctions between them."
