I guess Cheney is a man's man. I overheard a table of women discussing how hot they find Edwards last night.

dtb, now, Cheney apparently said "I am president of the Senate" (or whatever -- said he has X title). And he said "I am up in [aside -- the man claims to be from Wyoming -- puh-leaze] the Senate most Tuesdays." He did not say he is presiding over the Senate most Tuesdays. He did not say that he was on the Senate floor most Tuesdays. Hell, maybe he stops by to pick up a cup of coffee in Orrin's office on his way from some briefing.

The fact that most people would interpret "I am president of the Senate. I am up in the Senate most Tuesdays." to mean that he was in the Senate chambers (or whatever it is called) is irrelevant.

Wait, no, that can't be right. Because he was trying to convey that Edwards is NOT up in the Senate like ever.

Shit.

I hate when I'm fucking around with language to mislead people and realize I'm contradicting myself. It's so embarrassing.
