"Last night, Dick Cheney went up to Yankee Stadium to a ball game. During like the seventh-inning stretch or something, they put him on the jumbotron...and they booed him. Everyone in the stadium boos him. As we know, Dick Cheney has a horrible temper, so he goes crazy and he grabs everybody who booed him and then ran them around naked on a leash." David Letterman

“After all the scandals involving Halliburton, after the legal wrangling over the behind-closed-doors meetings at which Cheney allowed Enron CEO Ken Lay to shape U.S. policy, after he has been caught again and again peddling half-truths and outright lies regarding Iraq's supposed threat, it is absolutely amazing that Dick Cheney still thinks he has any integrity left to challenge”.

If Al Gore told a Republican to go f**k himself - do you think that the press would have given him a pass or do you think they would have carved it on his tombstone? You would think that the press would have covered Cheney saying Go F**k Yourself as much as Dean’s screech - wouldn't you?

Yep, I think a vice president telling a US Senator to go F*** himself is much more newsworthy than Howard Dean trying to rally his troops.

The "liberal" media indirectly tells us daily to "Go F*** ourselves." Here's a recent example: The AHNC top story today, about US lawmakers wanting the UN to observe our Nov 2 election. As of noon ET today, I cannot find that story in one US online publication. Even Al Jazeera has an article about it.

All Hat No Cattle finds those stories that the "liberal" U.S. media conveniently forgets.

A popular bar had a new robotic bartender installed.
A fellow came in for a drink and the robot asked him,
'What's your IQ?'

The man replied, '150.'
So the robot proceeded to make conversation about
Quantum physics, string theory, atomic chemistry, and so on.

The man listened intently and thought, 'This is really cool.'

The man decided to test the robot. He walked out the bar, turned
around, and came back in for another drink. Again, the robot asked
him, 'What's your IQ?'

The man responded, '100.' So the robot started talking about
football, baseball, and so on.

The man thought to himself, 'Wow, this is amazing.'

The man went out and came back in a third time. As before,
the robot asked him, 'What's your IQ?' The man replied, '50.'
The robot then said, 'So, you gonna vote for Bush again?
