  • Dick Cheney seems to have won. Why is he touring around? Newsweek ad. It is less likely that he is trying to pee in the jury pool, but a picture is worth a thousand words, there are some sects in Judaism and Islam that do not allow photos, and Thom's mentor Herr Müller believes they are against the first commandment - graven images. When you remember people, do you remember them as they were in real life, or do you remember a photo of them? Thom can teach kids to remember the bill of rights using imagery.
