Saw an amusing squib of an interview between U.S. Vice President Dick Cheney and Wolf Blitzer, host of CNN's The Situation Room, on The Daily Show on Thursday night.

The actual interview occurred Wednesday. Here's the CNN story. The text of the clip The Daily Show used is in bold:

An excerpt from the CNN transcript:

BLITZER: Do you think Hillary Clinton would make a good president?

CHENEY: No, I don't.

BLITZER: Why?

CHENEY: Because she's a Democrat. I don't agree with her philosophically and from a policy standpoint.

BLITZER: Do you think she will be president?

CHENEY: I don't.

BLITZER: Who do you think will be?

CHENEY: I'm not going to speculate.

BLITZER: Will it be John McCain?

CHENEY: I'm not going to speculate.

BLITZER: He's been very critical of you, John McCain.

CHENEY: Well, John's a good man. He and I have known each other a long time and we agree on many things and disagree on others.

BLITZER: He said, the other day -- he said, "The president listens too much to the vice president. Of course, the president bears the ultimate responsibility, but he's been very badly served by both the vice president and, most of all, the secretary of Defense." That was John McCain.

CHENEY: So?

BLITZER: No reaction?

CHENEY: I just disagree with him.

How even-tempered! :)
