] Mr. Leahy then suggested that the president of the Senate ] take his gavel and use it to perform an act that, while ] not technically impossible in anatomical terms, would ] certainly be considered both unseemly and unhygienic, and ] which would require an unusual combination of ] single-minded ambition and physical relaxation. ] ] ] Mr. Cheney wasted no time in informing Mr. Leahy that he ] should feel free to perform yet another anatomical ] impossibility%u2014this one involving aviation, a ] standard sexual act, and a rolling doughnut. oh my lord, this is hilarious. Another take on the Chaney v. Leahy war of words. |

] As a quick-thinking senatorial aide switched on the ] Senate's public-address system and cued up the infamous ] "Seven Minutes of Funk"? break, Mr. Leahy and Mr. ] Cheney went head-to-head in what can only be described as ] a "take no prisoners"? freestyle rap battle. ] ] Most of the rhymes kicked therein cannot be quoted in a ] family publication, but observers gave Mr. Cheney credit ] for his deceptively laid-back flow. Mr. Leahy was ] applauded for managing to rhyme the phrases "unethical ] for certain," "crude oil spurtin',"? and "like ] Halliburton." |
