It's good having Donnie Bejus back and blogging again.
That boy can crank out the posts at a rate to rival the PuppyBlender himself. In his review of Sgt. Hook's encounter with a some hate mail sent to Operation Shoe-Fly, a drive-by commenter assailed what she considered to be the Vice President's breathtakingly un-Christian breech of decoroum in dropping the ol' F bomb on Sen. Leahy (D-ashhole).
Now, I can picture this ol' biddy, serenely motoring past ol' Donnie's blog by at an oh-so-safe 28 mph in her 1987 Chevy Celebrity. In the left lane. With the turn signal on. How she managed to fire off her white-gloved response to Bejus (did she blaspheme him, i wonder?) while peering out from between the steering wheel and dashboard is, as her pastor might say, a mystery.
What brought this to mind this morning though, was reading this superb review of Mr. Cheney's verbage offered in Townhall.com by the always excellent Charles Krauthammer.
Flood-the-zone coverage by investigative reporters has not, however, quite resolved the issue of which of the two preferred forms passed Cheney's lips: the priceless two-worder -- ``(verb) you'' -- or the more expansive three-worder, a directive which begins with ``go.''
If brevity is indeed "the soul of wit", then let it be said that Vice President Cheney is indeed a most economically eloquent man.
And Senator Leahy really ought not miss the next opportunity to just S.T.F.U.
Oh, but I so prefer the latter, don't you?
Thanks for the mention, Jimbo - cigars, whisky, and many perforated beer cans with you is gonna be fun. Exhausting, but fun.

Yes Mr. Krauthammer was in top form (or would that be fourm). Was in stitches through the whole thing.

Krauthammer is da bomb!
(signed) A totally different type "ol biddy" who totally agrees with Cheney.
