Fuck Yourself, Dick

Ok that title is a little strong, but hat tip goes to the Washington Post for being the only folks with the kahunas to ... gasp ... spell out the word "f--k." According to a survey in this weeks LA Weekly:
A search of the Nexis newspaper database showed only one U.S. daily newspaper — the Washington Post — quoted the vice president’s wish for Leahy’s self-sufficiency: “Fuck yourself.” Here’s how other newspapers and wire services handled the vice president’s words:

The Boston Globe: Referred to the expletive as a “vulgar directive” and provided no other clues.

Calgary Sun: “(Bleep) off” or “Go (bleep) yourself.”

Daily News (New York): “Go f— yourself.”

Kaht: Can you say "fuck you" in any of the languages typically used by Guantanamo inmates, ie, Arabic, Pashto, Dari, or Yiddish [the latter spoken by many of the older Mossad agents who, warned in advance to flee the Twin Towers, then infiltrated and subequently gained control of al Queda -- did you know that Wahhab is derived from the Yiddish as in the phrase "ICHHAB dier bi di batsim" -- but being in mufti were rounded up along with a few others while smoozing outside of one of Kabul's better kosher delicatessens]? If not, you have little to fear.
