Burning down the House

By Libby

As my friend Jules Siegel dryly notes, "When shredders can't keep up,turn to fire.

The blaze appeared to be located in Vice President Dick Cheney's suite of ceremonial offices on the second floor of the building. Cheney and President Bush were across the street in the West Wing of the White House when the blaze broke out. It appeared to be under control within an hour.

Thankfully no one was hurt but what do you want to bet that this is one day that Dick left the door to his 'ceremonial' vault of secret documents, open?

Update: The latest report confirms the fire was in Cheney's 'ceremonial' office.
