Donny boy....

Whatever the reasons may have been for Cheney's deferments, he has a long and dsitnguished career of service to his home state of Wyoming and this country....whatever he may have done or not done in his youth is certainly overshadowed by his subsequent exemplary public service. Its only pinheaded haters like yourself who can't grasp those nuances you pinheads are all so ready to accept from your own....

Cheney's courage in the present sense is a kind of moral courage...the courage to speak up despite the smear job the media and whackos like yourself have done on himself and exPres Bush on an issue of vital importance to the nation....

I can certainly understand why a snivelling, lowbrow, putz like yourself could never understand the concept of moral courage. This country is a better place because of people like Dick Cheney despite the protestations of, and bile that, morons like you spew on a regular basis.....
