Cheney Going Hunting on Election Day
http://apnews.excite.com/article/20061105/D8L74U4O0.html

<SNIP>WASHINGTON (AP) - Vice President Dick Cheney will spend Election Day on his first hunting trip since he accidentally shot a companion last February while aiming at a covey of quail on a private Texas ranch.

The vice president, after working at the White House on Monday morning, will head to South Dakota to spend several days at a private hunting lodge near Pierre. Lea Anne McBride, his press secretary, said it was an annual hunting outing and said Cheney spent Election Day in 2002 at the same lodge.

He will be accompanied by his daughter, Mary, and his political director, Mel Raines, who will help him keep track of the election returns, McBride said.

There are so many obvious "hunting" jokes to insert here... where do we begin?? :+

2. Uh-oh!

That's going to be one pissed-off man come Tuesday night. I wouldn't want to be within miles of him - especially when he's got access to a rifle!

[Blue Belle]

3. And access to an open bar...

:eyes:

9. YIKES!!!

:wow:

[ClintonTyree]

4. "Dead-Eye Dick" is at it again.........

someone is going to get their face shot off. Did Mary and Mel draw the short straws? I'd be more than a little nervous and despite what they say in public, I imagine they are as well. :scared:

[Moochy]

5. He should play lasertag instead of hunting

scary quails!!!

[Ezlivin]

6. He's gotta be in place when they declare the election void and martial law

It's not the end of the world, it only looks like it.

[liberal N proud]

7. And anyone is crazy enough to go with him?

[bobbolink]

8. Thanks for the warning.

:evilgrin:

[radfringe]

10. ahh yes opening day of

lawyer hunting season :evilgrin:

21. Those Lawyers alleging voter fraud better beware!

Dead-eye dick has his bird shot and bottle of Johnny Walker blue ready for them.

[Vickers]

11. "private hunting lodge"

:wtf:

It's probably one of them stocked ones, where they discreetly tie up an animal so even a drunken buffoon like Tricky Dick can hit it.

12. Cheney might be more sober on election day than on the day after.

[Annces]

13. He has to work off his aggression

Shows he is scared.

[Kerrytravelers]

14. Who is he going with... meaning, who is going to be shot this time?

[Hand]

19. One or another of these two...

"He will be accompanied by his daughter, Mary, and his political director, Mel Raines, who will help him keep track of the election returns, McBride said."

With any luck, he'll bag the whole brace of them! :evilgrin:

[Jack Rabbit]

15. Well, everybody, stay clear Pierre on Tuesday

And, for Mr. Cheney's personal safety, please take his rifle away from him before reading the the election returns.

17. they must not be feeding him regularly....

Parents of missing children in DC must be getting suspicious.

18. By any chance is this "hunting lodge" wired with a broadband connection?

Think about it.... Uncle Dick and a team of Diebold hackers "hunting" for Republican "victory" in a secluded cabin.

Somebody should find it and cut the cable. And if there's a satellite dish, pretend you're Dick and the dish is Harry Whittington's face.

[Red Right and BLUE]

20. With any luck

he'll accidentally shoot himself in the face.
