“My eyes are up here, asshole. Oh yeah, Happy Easter.”
ELC Note of Regret: Please accept our humblest apologies for the continued vulgarities offered by Vice President Dick Cheney. We considered not publishing this item but felt strongly that the best way to deal with Cheney is to simply cast a light upon his actions, in [...]
