I think the VP is laughing at what Prez Ford was saying about, "Now Dick, I may not be around much longer, but listen, 'Don't believe a thing Woodward may say after my passing & don't believe any taped evidence. As you probably know, Woodward is better at doctoring tapes than Rose Mary Woods.'

"Are you paying attention Dick"? .....and VP Cheney laughs out loud.
