Did Cheney tell Hillary to "sit on this and spin"?
Al Franken just mentioned that. Have any of you heard that? It's a new one for me.

1. I'm sure he felt much better after it as well. He's a pig, a big fat
mean looking, pig. Bush/Cheney, the Mean Team.

"The Dream Team vs The Mean Team"
Great bumper sticker

3. I don't think that is just Al being Al. He tries to be truthful with his
statements. If it is not true, he will retract tomorrow.

4. No, I don't think he was kidding. He didn't say it in that context.

5. maybe not kidding...
...so much as speaking figuratively? I don't know. I love Al Franken but I've never heard his show, so I don't know how deadpan his delivery is. But I have a hard timing believing he was serious.

Maybe I am losing it. :eyes: But I sure thought I heard him say that, and I am not kidding.

10. If I am one of the effin people you are talking about
I do realize that Al is a comedian. And honestly, in the context that he said that it did not sound like he was telling a joke. That is why I posted to ask if anyone else heard it. Sometime I think there are a lot of people just looking for effin incredible things. LOL! :crazy:

21. Did you hear it?
It was delivered as a passing remark as they went to break.
Maybe his sarcasm level was too low for me to detect?
:shrug:

much of the time.

18. Yes I did hear him say it, I knew it was satire.
One of hist previous shows (two/three weeks ago) he was reporting having Cheney saying FU to everybody! They were bleeping it left and right.

As I said, if Cheeny had said that, it would have been a big thing. The repugs are stretching it trying to soud tough by swearing. This is a common tactic of bullies who have no more bluffs left and know they will loose. They are starting to alienate the sheeple who don;t like course language.

I WISH Cheney or Bush would say that to Hillary!!!
