According to the DAILY NEWS WASHINGTON BUREAU, President Barack Obama has extended Secret Service guard for former VP Dick Cheney -- for at least six months. Normally, ex-VPs only receive six months of protection at taxpayer expense. But Cheney asked for an extension, and President Obama - whom Cheney has criticized in several interviews since leaving office - recently signed off on his request. With all the controversy for Cheney as of late and what he could expect in the near future, this was probably a wise move.
Good luck, Dick!
