<description>&lt;p&gt;I&apos;d rather go hunting jihadis with Dick Cheney than ride in Ted Kennedy&apos;s car...&lt;/p&gt;</description>

<description>&lt;p&gt;As he bid goodbye to the Big Apple, His Holiness pulled the Vice President aside for a private chat.  He was overheard to say, &quot;So, shoot anybody lately, asshole?&quot; before grabbing Vice President Cheney in a headlock and applying nearly a dozen noogies and exclaiming, &quot;I&apos;m just kidding with you, you knucklehead!!!  Noogie Patrol!!!&quot;

Cheney, however, didn&apos;t appreciate the joke, and once released from the headlock came up swinging.  The Pope, showing surprising footwork for an eighty-year-old, dodges the haymakers the Vice President threw at him and, after a swift feint to the left, floored the Veep with a right hand lead that he never saw coming.  &quot;Cheney went down like a redwood,&quot; said one observer.  &quot;I don&apos;t think he&apos;s seen a right hand lead in three years.&quot;  His Holiness then walked over to the fallen Veep and said, &quot;You want to roll with me, this is what you get!  And tell your boss that if he gets in my face again he&apos;ll get more of the same, f***face!&quot;

Lynne Cheney, wife of the Vice President, stared at His Holiness for several seconds before finally attending to her fallen husband.  Flushed and looking, well, aroused, the Second Lady turned to the Pontiff, but could not speak to the Holy Father.  Benedict did, however, kneel down to Mrs. Cheney and whispered to her, &quot;Hey, babe, you&apos;re into old guys?  You need one that can hold it up?  We can always find space on the plane for a piece of ass, right boys?&quot;  The veteran Vaticanologists who have been following the Pope on his American sojurn all nodded in agreement.  

And with that, the Pope disappeared into the cabin of his plane and jetted off to the Eternal City.  &lt;/p&gt;</description>

<description>&lt;p&gt;Is Cheney the Devil&apos;s servant ?
This must be a party if an angel and a
devil are seen together smiling.

I have a bad feeling when both are together.
Are they planning something against us ?&lt;/p&gt;</description>

<description>&lt;p&gt;I wonder if Cheney broached the subject of Gay marriage with the Pope. After all, there is one in his family.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

<description>&lt;p&gt;they both give me heartburn, glad to see one of them leave town at least!  (and there&apos;s nothing religiously intolerant about that!  I don&apos;t like the guy, and I don&apos;t have to if I don&apos;t want to!)&lt;/p&gt;</description>

<description>&lt;p&gt;How many kittens do you think Cheney and The Pope have murdered between the two of them? &lt;/p&gt;</description>
