Cheney "Go F--k Yourself" incident is on the AP wire (well sort of)

While Cheney spoke, a passer-by hurled an expletive at the vice president. "First time I've heard it," Cheney said, when asked if he was hearing a lot of such sentiments.

Most the people Cheney met with were friendly. Lynne Lofton, whose house further down the street was completely destroyed, was an exception.

"I think this media opportunity today is a terrible waste of time and taxpayer money," she said. "They've picked a nice neighborhood where people have insurance and most are Republicans."

1. Wait. You mean they deliberately staged this photo-op in a repub area?
I'm shocked, I tell you. Shocked.

:rofl:

Good for Lynne Lofton for speaking up! Good for the "passer-by" who told Dick to go 'Cheney' himself!

:applause:

2. Shazaam!
The heckler's comment pales next to Lofton's. So Cheney is positioned in a 'safe' place. That may explain why the heckler called him mister -- a former Bush-Cheney supporter maybe?
