Is it now OK to say.... (WARNING: Filthy Language)

[burythehatchet]

FUCK YOU Dick Cheney...or
UP YOURS you ASSHOLE Dick Cheney....or
_________________(fill in the blank) Dick Cheney?

SInce it seems to have been accepted and approved by the powers that be, it should be OK for us now right? Heck, we're not even on the floor of the senate.

I used to feel a little awkward if I used an expletive in a post describing Dick Cheney, but now I feel completely unencumbered to say FUCK YOU you SCUMBAG Dick Cheney and the FUCKING horse you rode in on.

I hope you too feel you now have license.

4. Anyone going to protest at the Republican convention?

I'd love to see several
"Fuck you too Dick!" Signs at the protests (which I'm sure will be placed somewhere in New Jersey so the GOP can prevent an terrorists acts).

I'm sure between now and then, there's going to be a lot of creative signs.

8. What has become Civility

What has become of civility? What has become of comity? It used to be unheard of for Senate leaders to seek an active role against each other in campaigns. That time has gone. Has honor gone too? Who cares about honor when a Senate seat might be gained? When did party labels become more important than honor and the power of ideas? Gone are the days in which there was genuine debate, when Senators listen to the give and take of the discussion to learn about an issue and, sadly, many of the votes we take have a pre-determined outcome. Yet they are brought to the floor – and this goes for both sides of the aisle – to try to get Senators on record as voting for such and such. Bills are brought to the floor and amendments are offered to create a public record that can be touted or attacked come campaign season. In all this sound bite and fury, the losers are the people whom we represent. The people who send us to this body to act in their best interests, not to squabble and point fingers like petulant children.

And that is where all these shennagins play out – in front of the American people. People who need affordable health care, or help putting their children through college. People who are afraid that their jobs will be sent overseas, or that they will lose the pay and benefits that they have worked hard to secure. People on Medicare and Social Security, and people who worry about whether Medicare and Social Security will be there when it is time for them to retire. People who have sent their sons and daughters to fight half way around the world, and who are afraid that they may not come home.

I have served in this chamber for more than four decades. Times have changed. The world has changed. But our responsibilities and duties as Senators have not changed. Long after the campaign of this November – or the campaigns of many Novembers to come – each Senator in this body will look back at the content of his or her career and judge whether they made our country a better place. The people send us here to do a job. They do not send us here to play with their lives in order to score political points.

It is difficult in this world of instant gratification to think beyond the immediate. But we should all pause for a moment and reflect on the Senate. The Senate is an institution that relies on precedent. What kind of precedent is being set? In my years in this body, I have spent approximately two thirds of my time in the majority, and one third in the minority – the majority is better, by the way. I would say to the Republican Leadership that it is unlikely that they will always be in the majority. There will come a time when they may appreciate the rights afforded to the minority. We all need to spend a little time thinking about how it may feel to be in the other guy's shoes, and about what our silly, selfish games are doing to the soul of the Senate.

Sen. Robert Byrd, On the Floor of the Senate,
28 April, 2004.

Oh, and on Nov 2, I will be telling Crashcart to FUCK OFF!
