In other news, President Bush offered "big ups to my blood John Bolton," and released a statement decrying the "public airing of beef on the part of the Senate Democrats."

Senator Minority Leader Harry Reid could not be reached for comment.

It's been weird watching slang I never used get to this point.

"What is wrong with people?" (front page headline points to this: http://www.cnn.com/2013/03/20/us/animal-cruelty/index.html?hpt=hp_c1).
