She actually said this re:Hunting incident
Really did hear this on the BBC this AM:
A woman in the midwest was being interviewed about the shooting of Dick Cheney's hunting buddy and she actually said, "Well, if you're going to be shot by someone, it's at least an honor to be shot by the Vice President." She said this without a hint of irony in her voice. I didn't hear the rest of the story, because I was laughing too hard!

Sorry I don't have a link - but I'm sure that there's a BBC transcript out there someplace.

2. And that's why we're doomed . . .
If the regular folk don't regard this as the clearest possible example of "the gang that couldn't shoot straight," what is it going to take?

7. Hey Man, Nice Shot
Edited on Mon Feb-13-06 11:35 AM by Ezlivin
I wish I would’ve met you
Now it’s a little late
What you could’ve taught me
I could’ve saved some face
They think that your early ending
Was all wrong
For the most part they’re right
But look how they all got strong
That’s why I say hey man nice shot
What a good shot man

A man
Has gun
Hey man
Have fun
Nice shot

Now that the smoke's gone
And the air is all clear
Those who were right there
Got a new kind of fear
You’d fight and you were right
But they were just too strong
They’d stick it in your face
And let you smell what they consider wrong
That’s why I say hey man nice, nice shot
What a good shot man

A man
Has gun
Hey man
Have fun
Nice shot

I wish I would’ve met you
I wish I would’ve met you
I’d say
Nice shot

5. I heard that too. She was an editor
with the local (for the shooting) TV news, I think.

17. Yes, exactly!!
"Get the government off my back, but invoke the government to legislate my personal definition of morality!"

The IRONY!! The HYPOCRISY!

8. yes, i'm sure a 78-year old millionaire is just thinking
"i've led a full life, but people will remember me as a family man, an influential millionaire, a successful businessman, an a pillar of his community. i'd much rather be remembered as that poor sap who got shot by dick cheney!"

9. "I would shoot with Dick Cheney everywhere, anywhere..."
Ranch owner Katharine Armstrong: "I would shoot with Dick Cheney everywhere, anywhere, and not think twice about it," she said. But she said, "The nature of quail shooting ensures that this will happen. It goes with the turf."

Stay off the turf of MY neighborhood, please!! :scared:

11. Not many people can boast that they've been shot by the
Vice President of the United States. Alexander Hamilton tried, but he couldn't get the words out.

16. I SWEAR....
these people are SO BRAINWASHED that they'd jump off a cliff if Bush told them to! "Oh, how gracious of Bush to tell me to jump off a cliff! He's a CHRISTIAN and I just KNOW he's out for our good! I'm so happy to do this for him!"
