Vice President Dick Cheney was caught on tape and caught off guard during a meeting with President Bush.

A news crew was taping a cabinet meeting at the White House as the president was giving a briefing on the California wildfires.

The news crew taped Cheney as he appeared to be nodding off.

Perhaps even the vice president needs a power nap once in awhile.
