billvon 3,080 #5 June 25, 2004 > Good for him!!!! >DOn't question a mans Faith!!!!! You might want to read more carefully. Cheney questioned LEAHY's faith; when Leahy reminded him of that he said "Fuck off." Awaiting the flip-flop . . . Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wmw999 2,550 #11 June 25, 2004 That should make it pretty clear that whatever Cheney does, it's probably right, and whatever Leahy does, it's probably wrong. Even if it's exactly the same thing. Y'know, liberals eat and breathe. You're just the same as we are Wendy W.There is nothing more dangerous than breaking a basic safety rule and getting away with it. It removes fear of the consequences and builds false confidence. (tbrown) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

storm1977 0 #13 June 25, 2004 No that isn't true..... I don't know leahy from the next guy. Leahy may do some things right!!

Gawain 0 #15 June 25, 2004 Cheney was just interviewed by Niel Cavuto on Fox. He asked him about that "frank exchange" of views. VP Cheney did not express regret and said that while he does not normally conduct himself with such "strong" language, it was probably long overdue. This particular exchange was instigated by Leahy while everyone was posing for a Senate photo.So I try and I scream and I beg and I sigh Just to prove I'm alive, and it's alright 'Cause tonight there's a way I'll make light of my treacherous life Make light!

PhillyKev 0 #17 June 25, 2004 QuoteThis particular exchange was instigated by Leahy while everyone was posing for a Senate photo. According to who? Cheyney? Not what this says. QuoteThe story, which was recounted by several sources, goes like this: Cheney, who as president of the Senate was present for the picture day, turned to Leahy and scolded the senator over his recent criticism of the vice president for Halliburton's alleged war profiteering. I really don't care, I'm suprised some of those guys don't beat each other with bats. Just find it interesting that the hypocrisy of the censorship supporting, morally superior right wingers is once again exposed. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gawain 0 #24 June 25, 2004 The indecency thing? $275,000 per ocurrence (up from $27,500)? How does this constitute anything that is different than it was before? Boobies weren't allowed then, they still aren't.
