CNN: Cheney used the F word when talking to Leahy in Senate floor

I understand how he feels, somedays after confronting liberals with the facts and uncovering their lies I just get so tired of the BS they spew sometimes a two-word response is all they deserve.

Hey Leahy; FU!

[YOUGOTIT]

It is about time someone told the traitors off. Good job Mr. Vice President. The wimps on the Republican side should get some spine and tell the left-wing fascist where to go.

[freethinkingman]

Some have said that this may be an embarassment for the Team. I say it rocks and proves who the real men are that can relate to real men/people. I think this will boost Cheney, this man's got stones man I mean anyone thinking he can't go the distance in this campaign ought to start rethink that position.

Same thing happened when "Big Time" came out. Real talk by Real people!

[Protect the Bill of Rights]

I am partial to THE word.

Yes, this 50 year old woman has been known to release it into the atmosphere on those occasions when no other word will do.

Standing by Leahy qualifies as one such occasion.

(Not in front of the kids, though. Don't want them to know what a potty mouth Mom has.)

[Thebaddog]

Leahy deserved it. I like Cheney even more today.

[Torie]

Leahy is one of the most disliked members of the Senate, on both sides of the aisle, and not trusted, the latter because his word is worthless. He also is rated near the bottom by polls of Senate staffers. Not a pretty picture. Thus calling him a liar has a rather generic rather than a specific meaning. It describes one of his many bad habits.

I disagree. They are many ways to to convey the same message without saying that word, especially at the presidential level. Makes me wonder if Cheney fears of being replaced....

[daybreakcoming]

Why not tell us who "reported it" and who "somebody else" is that you are getting your info from?

[Torie]

There really is not, actually. The expletive when well used is irreplaceable.

[eeriegeno]

How can a person talk to Leahy and not use the F word? Personally, I would have also used the N word, the C word, the L word, the K word, and maybe even the ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ words. Bottom line, Leahy is more disgusting than CNN....................

You_killed_kenny who????

oh but you should see the shock and rage over at DU on this. They have it in their "breaking news" LMAO

[daybreakcoming]

reason? Depends on what the media tells you.

He's a shanty Irish #$#%#^@^@@@#&!

[Utah Girl]

Well, it just goes to show you that Cheney has bigger balls then Orin Hatch has. Hatch is always asking Leahy "how high?"

Isn't that the truth. And I'm no fan of crude language, but good on Cheney. Sometimes a good foul phrase is needed. And the Dems are all acting as if they've never heard the word. The horrors!!!

[Don'tMessWithTexas]

This charade of civility in the august body known as the US Senate is just a crock. The idea of Cheney dropping the f-bomb on Leaky is absolutely hilarious. How about John Cornyn just cutting loose and calling Teddy K a bloated ol' bag of S&!T?

[what i think]

isn't there a rule about foul language on the senate floor?

[pctech]

Dems are pulling out all the stops aren't they. I've never seen such a rabid hatred of anyone since Reagan in 1984. I just saw a commercial for Moore's film Farhenhiet 9/11.

Starting to get worried here folks, this just has to be a coordinated effect to get at Bush/Cheney anyway they can.
