#1 Vituperation? Where the hell did they get that word from, I speak english as a first language and I had to look that one up.

Websters New World Dictionary:

VITUPERATION:
1. the act of vituperating

well, there you have it.

#2 The remarks of Cheney, boss of the hawkish hard-liners, revealed the true colors of this group steering the implementation of the policy of the Bush administration.

What, no name calling, like neo-cons or Jooooos' lapdogs? And where's all the threats of the U.S. going down in a "sea of fire?" Man, the DPRK's losing their touch.

#3 Vituperation - The word is in regular use although normally as an adjective - vituperative. I come across it on a regular basis, normally as a fancy synonym for swearing.

#4 The language is the best part of it all. This type of statement from the DPRk always comes through like the under-the-breath mutterings of a paranoid schizophrenic shambling up the street talking to the sky.

#5 When Cheney was drenching the world in blood, was that when he was head of Halliburton, or as Vice President?

These guys get me SO confused!

#6 Tkat, that's because it IS the "under-the-breath mutterings of a paranoid schizophrenic shambling up the street talking to the sky".

#7 DB:
He's still head of Haliburton. You don't actually believe that he "resigned," do you? That's what they want you to think.

Gotta go: Safeway is having a sale on store-brand aluminum foil.

#10 I love the multiple-personality ranting, alternating between pseudo-intellectual and schoolyard taunting.

From: "... let loose vituperation against the supreme headquarters of the DPRK, once again revealing his inveterate intention ..."

To: "Cheney is hated as the most cruel monster and blood-thirsty beast ..."

Back to: "... anyone who dares hurl slanders and calumnies at their supreme headquarters but to mete out a stern punishment ..."

I think I got a whiplash.
