Dick Cheney, Privacy Advocate

Here’s a satellite photo of Dick Cheney’s house, which I learned about on the Daily Show. He’s obviously very concerned about protecting his home from prying eyes. I’m sure he’s equally zealous in his defense of the privacy rights of ordinary Americans.

Update: One of Matt’s commenters notes that Mapquest doesn’t blur the observatory circle. Also, one of our commenters claims that although this is the vice president’s official residence, his family doesn’t actually live there. Still, I think it’s a safe bet that somebody from the government asked Google to blur the observatory circle. And I rather doubt they’d be so helpful if I asked them to blur my neighborhood.
