Google Maps don't show Dick
I'm a regular watcher of Comedy Central's "Daily Show with Jon Stewart." In a recent episode, Stewart mentioned that Vice President Dick Cheney had all pictures of his house removed from Google Maps. Here is a link to the show clip:

A check in Google Maps for the Cheney residency both in Google Maps and Google Earth confirms the removal:

While I take great care to abide by the Sphinn doctrine of avoiding politics, I feel it would be a pertinent question to inquire if any person may successfully have their residence removed from Google Map existence, or only those with "Executive Privelege."
