<p>Like I said, its like shooting pigeons in central park- why bother calling it hunting, its not, its not a sport, its target practice with live animals for sport- 417 birds, please</p>
<p>when I was reading about quail hunting and looking at picture posted, most hunters had maybe, if lucky a dozen birds or so, the poor birds are hit with 30-40 pellets </p>
<p>at least be honest and not call what these men did hunting, it ain’t, its shooting in the most comfortable way possible without having to any huting at all</p>
<p>Idots abound, and not the hunters. If you haven’t seen a covey rise or hunted singles, you don’t know what you’re talking about. These aren’t Pennsylvania pen raised birds. </p>
<p>When you’re 65 and have a bad heart, I hope you give up all the activities you enjoy and sit on your butt, rather than using a modern conveniences to help you enjoy those activities.</p>
<p>It’s too bad that this story broke on Sunday. It will probably be too “stale” for Saturday NIght Live to have fun with it at the end of the week, but I can still hope.</p>
<p>Look, Cheney could use satellite technology to kill every single quail on earth in one stroke, if he wanted to, and eat every dangblasted one of them himself. Why don’t you folks give him a few points for mercy and willingness to share?</p>
<p>Is this what people do for fun in red states? I don’t get it. </p>
<p>Farm-raised = pets, sheesh. Why don’t we just take our kids down to the local petting farm or zoo and give them some bb or airsoft guns. Raise em up to be real hunters.</p>
<p>SNL did a skit a few years back in which George I contemplates shooting G II on a hunting trip but decides that “Bar” would be displeased. It might have been prompted by the news report that G#I had hooked the ear of a fishing companion while fishing in Maine (those are the facts as I remember them). Obviously anyone hunting or fishing with this crew needs to have eyes in the back of his head, and fishing is safer than hunting (provided you’re not accidentally knocked overboard unnoticed). </p>
<p>There is a term for this kind of hunting (from a car window). It’s called ‘slob hunting’. I’m sure Cheney made sure to have boots on the ground, since he seems to have a preoccupation with that kind of thing.</p>
<p>All kidding aside, it saddens me that this is my vice-president.</p>
<p>Momof3sons,
if you love the “old” SNL humor…you don’t have to wait … turn on The Daily Show with Jon Stewart…he has a “new” show every Mon - Thursday…at 11pm ET on the Comedy Channel…they repeat the previous evening’s show at 10am and at 8pm… at least on my Time Warner Cable lineup…I have a not so secret crush on Jon…he is just brilliant…his comedic timing is impeccable…some of the sidebar skits are a bit sophmorish, but overall, they are just tooo funny… and Steven Colbert, The Colbert Report is a tremendous spoof on our world today. Not pretty, but at least one doesn’t feel so alone in amazment that they are able to stiffle all of America!! But, turn on The Daily Show at least once or twice and give it a try. You’ll like it! Jon Stewart is right on target with Washington, he really comes at this from a vantage point of “how is this good for our country?” …and you will definitely laugh at how this is all portrayed… he loves to show Scott McClellen taking the hits from the press corp in his briefings… </p>
<p>right now, Hardball with Chris Matthews has been covering this since 5pm (45 minutes on 1 subject is a lot for Hardball) and even Pat Bucanan is stunned at the stonewalling on this by Chenney…Ron Reagan is asking “was anyone drinking?” there is even speculation that they sat on it to avoid it being discussed on the Sunday am talk shows… and they are all yuking it up that what would have been a small story is now HUGE …WHY didn’t they release it? What were they hiding.</p>
<p>“What are they doing with the poor things. Stuffing them and donating them to a local food bank?”</p>
<p>Oh, he’s been torturing poor little animals since he was a toddler. Why do you think he got kicked out of Yale? He even once killed Bambi’s mom! :(</p>
