In all fairness, the core vulgarity is an exact quote of Cheney's public comment to Sen. Patrick Leahy.
In all fairness, Cheney responded to an insult from Leahy, and Cheney did not scream an obcenity at Leahy from the audience during a public appearance. There is no comparison. Plus, Leahy deserved it.
In all fairness Leaky Leahy was trying to "game" a photo-op with the vice president so LEAHY would look good.
Leahey, after saying vile and vulgar things about the VP, then went up for a public handshake with the president. Basically now that I have publicly profained you, lets be friends. Cheney simply advised Leahy that Leahy would have more success performing an impossible sex act than to have Cheney pander to the Democrat Senator.
Very fine and upstanding response.
