okay. this kind of surprised me. in the washington post article about cheney using profanity against senatoar leahy on the senate floor...they say it. in the article. the f-word.

On Tuesday, Cheney, serving in his role as president of the Senate, appeared in the chamber for a photo session. A chance meeting with Sen. Patrick J. Leahy (Vt.), the ranking Democrat on the Judiciary Committee, became an argument about Cheney's ties to Halliburton Co., an international energy services corporation, and President Bush's judicial nominees. The exchange ended when Cheney offered some crass advice.

"Fuck yourself," said the man who is a heartbeat from the presidency.

is this like, acceptable? in the washington post? (it's on the online version of the article as well as the print.) i'm not offended, just surprised they'd actually print the f-word. i mean, my god, THINK OF THE CHILDREN.
