After 9/11, Vice President Richard Cheney seized the initiative. He pushed to expand executive power, transform America's intelligence agencies and bring the war on terror to Iraq. But first he had to take on George Tenet's CIA for control over intelligence.



"The Dark Side"

5. I watched that show three times while it aired in my market

It belongs on EVERYBODY's 'must see' list, it's that good. Now, if I can just get my dinosaur computer to operate Real Player™, I'll watch it a fourth time. ;)

6. Very cool! Um, just one question...

Isn't there a prequel about George? I could have sworn I heard about something called "The Dork Side."

is this the first time I've heard about Cheney thinking the military already took down two commercial planes? I watched United 93 twice and they were desperately trying to find VP/Prez to order military help.
