GOP's "MACACA" jokes may not be too endearing to the African-Americans...

Cheney Investment Portfolio Bets On Weak US Economy/Dollar

According to Kiplinger's, the Cheneys, who may be worth close to $100 million, have invested the vast majority of their wealth overseas, in markets that do not fluctuate based on the U.S. dollar:

Vice President Cheney's financial advisers are apparently betting on a rise in inflation and interest rates and on a decline in the value of the dollar against foreign currencies. That's the conclusion we draw after scouring the financial disclosure form released by Cheney this week.

The Cheneys' money is not in a blind trust but, according to his advisers: "the vice president pays no attention to his investments."

Perhaps. What we DO know is that he and his boss pay no attention to the well-being of the economy at large. Besides, what's nearly as flabbergasting as the possibility that Cheney chose to invest outside of U.S. markets is that he didn't bother to direct his money managers to keep his money domestic. Oh Dick.
