Q: What 2 words best describe a conversation between Tucker "I want to be George Will" Carlson and Jonah "I wouldn't have a gig if it weren't for my mommy" Goldberg?

Here's the conversation, thanks to Digby and Glenn:

CARLSON: But I'm bothered by Cheney's -- but does -- Cheney's secrecy, his penchant for secrecy. I mean, this is a cliche, a stereotype, but it's rooted, apparently, in truth. The guy really is secretive to a degree we haven't seen in a while. That is -- I mean, we do have a right to know what our government is doing, don't we?

GOLDBERG: Yes, sure, although I think you would concede, even though you and I disagree about some foreign policy stuff, you and I would agree that there are some things that should be kept secret. We might disagree about what they are.

CARLSON: Right.

GOLDBERG: And you know, but I do think that what Cheney has learned after a lifetime in Washington as a power player, is that the person who holds the secrets has power. And he is using that for what I would say, or probably what he believes to be certainly good ends. A lot of people disagree on that, but he's trying to do best as he can and he sees holding onto power as a tool to do that.

Trust Daddy Cheney. Nothing to worry about, other than allowing our country to become a torture state that spies indiscriminately on its citizens. Just go back to your Paris Hilton updates, since I'm on the topic of typically vapid. She'd fit right in with Tucker and Jonah.
