FINAL WORD

"Cheney's gone in a couple of years. Alito will be around for decades. And I'm not sure if the guy we see on TV is the real Dick Cheney, anyway. I think he's being stored underground, hundreds of miles away, in some vault with a lot of pacemakers and extra hearts."

Morgan Spurlock | director of "Super Size Me," when asked who's scarier, Supreme Court nominee Samuel Alito or Vice President Dick Cheney, in New York magazine
