Where's Bunker Dick? Found his location for today.
He is heading to Billings for a stealth fund raiser

<snip> Cheney, on a fund-raising swing in the West Wednesday, will raise money for the Bush-Cheney '04 re-election campaign in Sacramento, Calif., before jetting to Billings. His arrival and departure is "closed" a campaign aide said.

///Gee, guess he doesn't feel safe from people exercising free speech even in Montana!

From another fun article in the Billings Gazette:

<snip> HELENA -- Three public service commissioners on Tuesday criticized financially ailing NorthWestern Corp. for paying $450,000 a year to use its private jet to ferry its chief executive officer from Sioux Falls, S.D., to his home in Naples, Fla., 26 times annually.

<snip> A State Bureau check with the online travel service Orbitz found that Drook could fly from Sioux Falls to Fort Myers, Fla., about 40 miles from Naples, on a September weekend for $431 round-trip in coach, $1,051 in business class and $1,042 in first-class seating.

<snip>The flights are in addition to Drook's $565,000 annual salary, a $600,000 signing bonus and up to $423,000 in incentives for the CEO.

////And for those of you who were wondering but lack the time to go to the second link: Yes, the energy company in the second story is on the verge of bankruptcy despite a 35% temporary rate hike.

What sort of odds will ya give me that the rascal in the second story will be at, or has been to a recent Cheney fundraiser?
