'Veep's a coward,' senator bristles



BY KENNETH R. BAZINET
DAILY NEWS WASHINGTON BUREAU

WASHINGTON - Ex-Navy fighter pilot Sen. Tom Harkin called Vice President Cheney a coward who dodged military service but is willing to be tough "with someone else's kid's blood."
Harkin said he was infuriated by the veep mocking Sen. John Kerry for saying he would fight a "more sensitive war on terror."

"When I hear this coming from Dick Cheney, who was a coward, who would not serve during the Vietnam War, it makes my blood boil," Harkin said yesterday, elevating an already vicious war of words between the two campaigns and their allies.

"He'll be tough, but he'll be tough with someone else's kid's blood," Harkin said of Cheney.

"It just outrages me that someone who got five deferments during Vietnam and said he had 'other priorities' at that time would say that," said Harkin, an Iowa Democrat.<snip>

1. Alright Harkin.

Kick ass! That ought to shut Cheney big fat mouth for a while.

I guess we know who can 'go fuck himself' now.
