No more curious than as to why the VP tells an elected Senator to Fuck off.
The politics of hate are taking their toll on everybody. Nobody trusts anyone anymore, and these people (senators and Reps. not just Kerry and Bush) and their families are under microscopes by the press, being blackmailed by their parties, other senators, corporations, donors, or the president, having to face unhappy voters and it never lets up.
The pressure is getting to everyone and I don't think either's (Teresa or Cheney) comments are that bad. I do think Cheney should have shown more respect but we don't understand the pressure these people are under, not just by their jobs but by every action they take. No matter what they do they get criticized and hate thrown at them.
One can say it's just politics, but it has never been this bad, at least in my memory.
One could say well if they can't handle that pressure they don't deserve the job. But if that's the case, with hate mongering partisan politics as bad as they have ever been noone would be able to run for any office, because we all have our breaking points.
I just wish the papers and the Limbaughs and the MM and the rest of the people who make money preaching hatred would ease up on the private lives of these people and focus on the issues. But then again they have set the tones and the masses want negativity, divisiveness and hatred because we have been conditioned to want it.
Kind of pathetic future we have if it keeps going this way, because nothing will ever get done to better the future because noone will take a chance.

My response is, "I like to put forks in an eletrical socket, just LOVE that feeling, can't ever get enough of it, so will you let me put this copper fork in that electric socket?"
