Oh, That Joe! -- Gimme a Break -- Spirit of Dick Cheney

Political Punch: Oh, That Joe! (No. 48 in a Series) -- Gimme a Break: "That met with Vice President Biden's standard reply.

'Gimme a f*&$#ing break,' he said, apparently unaware that the microphone was on."

Remember main stream media's detailed and in depth coverage of Dick Cheney's f-word greeting to Patrick Leahy? The once certain proof of Cheney's evil, vile, meanness will no doubt now transform into the certain proof of Biden's good ole boy warmth - Joe is one of us - coverages, if it is mentioned at all. Do we need really need once again examples of media's left handed spin? Probably not. Just sayin'.

Still the key question is not right vs left. It is straight and narrow vs crooked and broad. Do any of us really expect, on judgment day, to be separated by our political affiliation? Are the sheep conservatives and the goats liberals? Yes I know a case can be made today and a good one, too. But right vs left is the wrong discussion for eternal significance.

Proverbs 14:12 "There is a way which seems right to a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death."
