2. Yeah, they might have mentioned Cheney’s comment over the course of one day. And, frankly, his comment is quite a bit more vulgar than “shove it.” Not to mention that he said it on the Senate floor. Teresa was just biting back at an obnoxious reporter. Can’t blame her. I worked in the newspaper business long enough to know how many reporters act. And of course, women tend to get chastised more for using harsh language than men do. Hmmmm…wonder why. Is it because we’re supposed to be prim, proper, meek and mild??

  3. Some have been busy cultivating the myth that Teresa is “a train wreck waiting to happen” so that when something like this does happen, they can blow it out of proportion.

  4. I think she’s an asset to her husband, who, frankly, lacks personality and charisma. At least it doesn’t come across on TV. So I find Teresa’s candor refreshing. I wonder who’s been cultivating that myth anyway……..hmmmm….FOX News?

  5. Are you kidding me???
    The Cheney thing got covered all over the place. Now… weeks out, you can still find reports on Google News searching for “Cheney vulgar” or any other variation.
    Selective memory, Brian… selective memory.

  6. And another thing… Heinz Kerry just got done giving a speech on civility in politics. Cheney made no such promise.

  7. Assuming this kind of stuff is important to begin with…
    Didn’t GWB call a reporter an a**hole in the 2000 campaign?
    Looks to me if this kind of stuff were important, having the President and Vice President of our country saying these things is much more important than someone who is not even holding or running for office, not even dogcatcher.

  8. I agree with “fletch”. It’s not even important. People curse all the time. It may not always be appropriate, but it’s hardly a political issue.
