"Roy Blunt is a great friend of mine. We work very closely together. He does a superb job, I know, for all of you as your congressman, and a great job as Majority Leader in the House. (Applause.) Might I add that Kit Bond is no slouch either as United States senator."

~ Vice President Dick Cheney, speaking at a 2004 town hall meeting in Joplin
