IMHO, Veep Cheney and his wife and many other Repubniks have given a negative spin to Kerry's use of the word, "SENSITIVE".

Unfortunately for the Repubniks, Cheney's attempt to ridicule Kerry has backfired big-time on Cheney. It was pointed out by the Dems that Bush himself had used the same S word, not once but on several occasions!

Stop pulling wool over people's eyes, Ann. Stop indulging in non sequiturs.
