Dubya... a class act and a gentleman: Thursday, July 19, 2001 3:17 p.m. EDT Cheney Defends Bush's 'New Tone' as Dems Go for the Jugular Vice President Dick Cheney was called upon Thursday to explain why President Bush is still honoring his pledge to set a "new tone" in Washington, D.C., even as leading Senate Democrats launched angry verbal salvos at his policies and even his family. "It appears to me that there's none of that ['new tone'] being reciprocated by the left or the Democrats," conservative radio talker Rush Limbaugh complained to Cheney when the vice president phoned into his nationally syndicated show at midday. The superstar radioman cited recent criticism of Bush's education proposals by Sen. Ted Kennedy - who turned on Bush even though he had been avidly courted by the president and his aides. "Is it your feeling that the 'new tone' that the president has brought to town ... is it working as designed and if so, how should we see the manifestation of that?" asked Limbaugh. "He's very serious about it," Cheney replied. "It takes a lot of patience to try to change the tone in this town." Cheney hinted that he's had to do a lot of tongue-biting in order to comply with Bush's dictum. "I'm learning from him every day, frankly. Maybe I've spent too long here in my youth," the veep told Limbaugh. "I've developed lots of bad habits over the years." Cheney said Bush had managed to "pull it off" when it came to upholding his "new tone" pledge, but cautioned that the cease-fire wouldn't continue indefinitely in the absence of any reciprocation. "We'll see what happens over time. I thought that [Senate Majority Leader] Tom Daschle, for example, made some comments yesterday about foreign policy just as the president was landing overseas for a major round of summits that were [inappropriate]." Daschle suggested Wednesday that Bush's foreign policy was isolationist and was hurting U.S. standing in the world. "First of all, he was wrong in his remarks," Cheney told Limbaugh. "But secondly he was way off base making those kinds of comments with the president in the middle of some very important foreign policy meetings." While Daschle was slamming Bush on foreign policy, reigning Senate Democratic diva Hillary Clinton launched her own angry personal attack, blaming declining defense spending during her husband's administration on budget deficits run up while Bush's father was president. Just last week, President Bush had extended an olive branch to Mrs. Clinton, inviting her to travel with him to New York on Air Force One for a ceremony honoring the late John Cardinal O'Connor. Clinton accepted and wound up in Bush's VIP cabin, where the president sat next to her both on the way up to New York and then back to D.C. But that didn't keep her from attacking Bush's father in terms so harsh that she blew a gasket as she questioned Deputy Defense Secretary Paul Wolfowitz, who was summoned to the Senate for a Q & A on defense spending. Wolfowitz nervously sipped a glass of water as Clinton dressed him down, hurling barbs against Bush so loudly that "her voice echoed through the crowded hearing room," according to the New York Post. "She refused to let Wolfowitz finish his comments," the paper said, "ending her biting statement with a terse 'thank you very much' and then getting up and stomping out of the room." The hearing continued without her. Neither Limbaugh nor Cheney mentioned Mrs. Clinton's Senate temper tantrum.

You're just another sorry a__ liberal fruit who doesn't know the diference between right and wrong. Hatred to clowns like you is anyone who doesn't agree with your ignorant views of the world. I feel sorry for queers screwing each other up the dirt road and giving each other AIDS. I wish they'd stop. However, they're too ignorant. Same as the morons who smoke all their lives and then decide to sue the tobacco companies when they get cancer or heart disease, even though it tells them right on the package that it can cause health problems. I don't want AIDS to spread to the rest of the population like it's being done in the third world. That's what we're on the way to becoming with our politically correct multi-culturalism. Hell, they just had a story in the newspaper here about this hooker who everybody in God's creation knows is HIV positive, yet they don't take her off the streets. Sorry, but her confidentiality isn't worth a bean to me. She needs to be quarantined. Keep on hating and being ignorant of the facts.knc
