Cheney's Curse 'Not an Issue' With Bush

[CShine]

Vice President Dick Cheney's curse in an exchange on the Senate floor is not a concern to President Bush, White House spokesman Scott McClellan said Saturday.

"These things happen from time to time," McClellan said. "It's not an issue with the president." McClellan and the president were on Air Force One on the way to Turkey for a NATO summit.

Cheney used an obscenity beginning with "F" in an exchange Tuesday with Sen. Patrick Leahy, D-Vt., on the Senate floor where members had gathered for a group photo. Leahy said he was "kind of shocked" to hear such language on the Senate floor while Cheney said "I felt better after I said it."

1. Well then Fuck You Too Chimpy nt

[MikeG]

2. Then its OK for reporters to swear during press briefings.

Lets talk up a blue streak.

[w13rd0]

3. Fuck You Bush & Cheney...

...I feel better already.

[pfitz59]

4. FUFUFUFUFUFUFU...........

You and the golf cart you rode in on!

[Disturbed]

5. A reporter's question.

Mr. Resident, why are you and the VP such fuckin' hypocrites? ;)

[cliss]

6. Not an issue with BeelzeBush.....

OK, now flash back to those many Time magazine covers with George and Laura professing their "faith". Bush says, "My faith keeps my strong".

Now fast-foward to the current administration in a "siege mentality". Bush says the F-word on a regular basis. He even says to "Fuck over" anyone who opposes him. (see CounterPunch article, "Siege mentality in the White House".

Why would this bother him?

[Media_Lies_Daily]

7. I guess not...Cheney has probably said worse to FratBoy.

[Art_from_Ark]

32. No doubt FratBoy got an earful

during the infamous "pretzel" incident

[gulliver]

8. Ms. Manners, please, please help me!

I am so confused.

Isn't Leahy the one who is supposed to say it isn't an issue? I'm so confused. Cheney says "go f*ck yourself" to a United States Senator in the United States Senate Chamber. And all he says afterward is that he feels better? And President Bush forgives him?!?!?!

Is it me? Ms. Manners, your country needs you.

[acmavm]

9. Why would it be an issue for him? Doesn't anybody remember the

answer he gave the time he was asked what Poppy, Jeb, and he talked about when they were together?

I have always assumed that was a true story. It seems to fit in with his lack of character (if you can use that word when referring to him) so well.

[Syrinx]

12. I remember

the "p" word.

[yardwork]

10. Gee, Chimp-boy cared a lot when Kerry said "liar."

I guess in Chimp-boy's lexicon "liar" is a bad word but "fuck you" is just normal talk.

Gangster morals.

[Syrinx]

11. "the curse of Cheney"

Has a nice ring to it, don't you think?

[WillyT]

13. 'The Curse Of Cheney' Would Just Be Scary If It Were A Movie !!!

But since it is real, it is CRIMINAL!!!

Vice President Fuck!!!

:grr::nuke::mad:

[indepat]

14. Is the President indicating that he joins Cheney in saying fu*k you to

everyone who does not fawn over them and rapturously shill for their policies and little wars, in essence sending the Constitution and our constitutional form of government great big fu*k yous?

[Justitia]

15. Restoring "honor & integrity" to the WH???

Ok, then, as a Texan woman trying to restore honor and integrity to her state's soiled reputation, I say to this administration:

Fuck All Y'all and the horse you rode in on!!!
:spank:

[Jim Sagle]

22. That horse would be Fat Tony.

[dArKeR]

16. The dirty mouth of the US vice president

Vice president Dick Cheney brought a long-running feud with leading Democrats over his former company, Halliburton, to a foul-mouthed climax on the floor of the Senate, it emerged on Friday.

Cheney told Vermont's senator, Patrick Leahy to "fuck yourself", after he apparently approached George Bush's number two for a chat.

The vice president was furious about the Democrat's criticism of Halliburton and its close relationship to the Bush administration.

[Tellurian]

17. Good timing...pre F 911

lends all the credibility in the world to Moore's movie!

[DS1]

18. Look at all those bad mouthed DUers who don't know anything

but talking about sex and using bad language :eyes:

I'm half tempted to blow my 3 yr old FR account to go write

HERE'S A BIG FUCK YOU IN HONOR OF DICK

[President Jesus]

19. ...and it's not an issue with me either.

Honestly, of the litany of shit that Cheney has perpetrated on this country while in a position of power, making an issue of him saying 'fuck' is just inane.

To make an issue of this is so absurdly petty that I think it will backfire on us.

[jdj]

24. The media is making it an issue.

Leahy blew it off.

I think this will matter more to the repuke base than dems, they are the ones in shock. The issue, so to speak, is the hypocrisy,not the "f-word". Unless you believe the bumper sticker I saw yesterday that said "Christians aren't perfect, just forgiven." Excuse me while I go throw up.

[Cocoa]

20. Fuck Bush, we're taking him out!

:bounce:

[keithyboy]

21. Nothing the Republicans do is of concern to Bush or the Christian right

only what Dems or liberals do or say is offensive to any of them. Even Rush's drug abuse and illegal purchases of drugs is ok with them.

[symbolman]

23. He needs help

some fucking help! My MOM would have known what to do with this cretin..

[2cents]

25. Embarrassments can be turned to....

endearing positives if you stand strong, go with it, and never apologize.

Dean should have embraced and encouraged "the scream".

[Myrina]

26. But they pull the Irish interview

with Shrubbie because the journalist was 'rude' and 'disrespectful' for rephrasing a question after he had started to 'answer' ??

These asswads are so un-flippin' believably arrogant and abnoxious !!
I am breathless !!!

[snippy]

27. Anyone know how often Cheney tells Bush to go fuck himself?

Also, isn't this similar to what Bush said about Karla Faye Tucker?

[Geo55]

33. how often Cheney tells Bush to go fuck himself?

All the time....that's why it's no big deal..

"UNKA DICK SEZ THAT TA ME ALA TIME"

[Piperay]

28. Hmmmmmm well then,

FUCK YOU Cheney, FUCK YOU George W. Bush and FUCK your whole mis-administration. Ahhhhhhhh, I feel so much better now and I'm not sorry either. *SMIRK*

[Citizen Daryl]

29. MP3: "Do The Cheney"

Clicky-click.

PARENTAL ADVISORY: Contains Pottymouth.

[RedSock]

30. "Fuck Saddam, we're taking him out"

So said Christ himself, according to Time magazine.

[Manix]

31. Great!!.....Bush/Cheney.......Kiss my fuckin' ass

[DemoTex]

34. Well "Janice Jackson" you, Bu$h.

Flop that titty out and watch you old white hypocrites shake like dogs shitting peach pits. That black titty started this entire, bizarre moral crusade. The FCC and Congress went wild to keep shock-jocks from uttering the dreaded "F-Word."

Bwaa haaa haaa haaa! Then it comes spewing from the venomous lips of the most vile of a vile regime. Who would have thunk it? Dick Cheney said "fuck." But for god's sake, Dick, please never show your titties.

[Geo55]

35. Dick, please never show your titties.

Now , THERE'S a mental image I didn't need....lol
