In perspective.

Well. Fortune just popped up an interesting (and amusing quote) that puts the low-brow of Cheney into an interesting perspective.
"I have just read your lousy review buried in the back pages. You
sound like a frustrated old man who never made a success, an
eight-ulcer man on a four-ulcer job, and all four ulcers working. I
have never met you, but if I do you'll need a new nose and plenty of
beefsteak and perhaps a supporter below. Westbrook Pegler, a
guttersnipe, is a gentleman compared to you. You can take that as more
of an insult than as a reflection on your ancestry."
-- President Harry S Truman
Now see. There's a man who knows how to tell some one off. The F-word is so childish it pales by comparison.
On a tangent, I'll be really sad when Byrd finally leaves office. He seems to be the last of the old flowery-speaking really stately-acting statesmen. *sigh* Anymore we just have a bunch of ruffians in every sense of the word. :/
