Post; Obscenity shouted at Vice President during conference


In Mississippi, during a press conference, after telling the press that what needs to be done, gets done. A resident walked up to the gaggle and said this:


"Go **** yourself, Mr. Cheney!! Go **** yourself!!!

Cheney looked pissed. Really pissed.

A reporter then asked him, "Do you get that a lot, Mr. Cheney?"

He replied, "That's the first time I've heard it. Must be a friend of John er.. uh.. never mind."

It sounded as though he was pushed away (probably by the secret service). CNN would not show this guy.

Well what goes around comes around. Cheney said the same thing to my state's senior Senator - Patrick Leahy over Halliburton criticism.

He's a big boy. I think he can take what he dishes out.

Oh yeah now the FBI deports him to some secret base and tortures him until he admits he's a terrorist. Gimme a break

My feelings exactly. Especially on the floor of Congress.

What was Darth Cheney doing over there anyway? Scouting new locations for another Haliburton no-bid contract.

The guy who shouted it was an ER doc from Louisiana. You can find a link to his online blog at ihatemycubicle.com

How naughty of them and of course Mr Cheney would not have known what it meant or would have ever used such an expression in his life
