I wonder how much of Cheney's deterioration over the last 15-20 years into "Darth Cheney" is due to his decades of heart problems and surgery. You can't go through all of that without it affecting the flow of blood and oxygen to your brain, which would account for his meanness, stubborn close-mindedness, etc. He's never been a great guy, but he didn't used to be so irrational (in the 1980s and early 1990s).
