Dick Cheney's top 10 excuses for shooting fellow hunter Harry Whittington
Now I've never been peppered by any kind of shot, but anything coming out of the business end of a shotgun, even birdshot is going over 1500fps. I'm glad Harry only had a small heart attack from one of the pellets.
I gleaned this from Bob G's blog. Who wishes at this time to stay as far away as possible from under the feds 'looking glass'. So I agreed. Hey, can you blame him? For some reason he thinks his writings and telephone calls are monitored by them! Such paranoia. Doesn't he know that that would be illegal for a pres, and congress to authorize a blanket surveillance over an entire nation?! Each to their own demons I guess.
So enjoy the 10 top excuses.....
10. Sick and tired of Whittington's "Hey, I'm having a heart attack" jokes.
9. Pushed over edge by Dixie Chicks and Streisand blasting on pick-up truck stereo. 8. Ongoing dispute over whether it's acceptable to torture quail before shooting them.
7. Thought he saw Scooter Libby on other side of tree line.
6. Bombed out of his gourd on Wild Turkey and Lone Star Beer.
5. Companion's ill-advised decision to wear Moveon.org sweatshirt.
4. Was trying to impress Jodie Foster.
3. Whittington's repeated ribbing that Bush is actually the "real president".
2. Targeting scope on rifle made by Halliburton. And the number one excuse given by Dick Cheney for almost blowing away hunting companion Harry Whittington...
1. Because he's a wartime vice president, damn it

OK, well that was fun wasn't it kids!?
What isn't the least bit humorous is this 'new' idea our leader wants to hand over the charge of major shipping operations in New York, New Jersey, Baltimore, New Orleans, Miami and Philadelphia to a Dubai government organization. In my humble opinion, there comes a time to get off your knees and stop bowing to the corporate masters. Granted, in all fairness, the Pres was born, bred and raised in that believe world. Maybe he can't think outside that box. And he, if anyone knows how hard it is to quit some addictions. For that I give him kudos and my prayers.
But some have also noted that some of the Sept. 11 hijackers used the United Arab Emirates as an operational and financial base. In addition, some critics contend the UAE was an important transfer point for shipments of smuggled nuclear components sent to Iran, North Korea and Libya by a Pakistani scientist. I shell leave you to ponder this more on your own as there's a plethora of media reporting out there concerning this hot topic. I don't have a lot of answers but have way more questions, so good night and goodluck(always did like that phrase).
for you reference nuts, some can be found at the below site. http://articles.news.aol.com/news/article.adp?id=20060218210909990001&_mpc=

After watching the frivolities of the Super Bowl I decided to post a raw feed conversation between Ms. Rice and our illustrous leader, I picked up on my super duper satellite dish. With all the political posts going on I thought I'd add this one. Anyway, if you don't have humor what do you have!! You will have boredom. Happy February!!
