From AP:
WASHINGTON - Vice President Dick Cheney won't lose his home, his office and his entertainment expense account after all. The House on Thursday rejected an attempt to eliminate the vice president's executive office budget, a move that Democrats tied to Cheney's assertion that his office didn't need to comply with national security disclosure rules required of other executive branch agencies.
Republicans denounced the proposal as political theater.

I seen that earlier SPB, damn wussies!
The democrats defeated this amendment because they are tired of Cheney, the first wing of the party is already ready to impeach Cheney.
Though his office must be defunded first & republicans join too....
So they must bring the amendment back again to defund the Dick.
