WASHINGTON (SR) President Obama appeared to be near tears when he told reporters Friday morning that former Vice President Cheney's recent critical comments did not bother him.
"The former Vice President is free to think whatever he wants, but personally attacking me, when I've never done one bad thing to him, is just mean," the President said with a cracking voice and watering eyes. "He's mean and he's a bully and he just needs to stop. Please make him stop."
The President's comments were in response to Cheney's speech Wednesday night where he verbally kicked Obama in the testicles, accusing him of "dithering" with critical troop decisions, repeatedly questioning the President's masculinity, and making fun of First Lady Michelle's "gigantic commie back porch."
The White House later insisted the President was not crying, but simply suffering from an allergic reaction to criticism.
My comments: I do believe Cheney maybe went a little too far when he called the President a "little girl," but the rest was pretty much right on. Un-bunch your panties and grow a pair if you don't want to get picked on, Mary.
