I've recently discovered that Cheney is even cleverer at controlling his body language than Perle. Instead of facing his interlocutor with total stillness of his face and hands, Cheney only allows himself to be filmed from the rear -- at least this is what happened at a recent strategy meeting in the Oval Room. The back of his head is wonderfully effective. Even I, with all my advanced interpretative skills couldn't tell what he was really thinking.
When he has to face someone important, however, his stratagem is pure Trappism. It is to say nothing. I quote from an FT centre-page "Man in the News" article today written by James Harding: "Mr Cheney occupies one of the most important positions in the world at the lowest of decidel levels. When Tony Blair and his aides came to Camp David last September to plot the United Nations route to tackling Iraq, Mr Cheney sat through the meetings without saying a word. . . .
