Cheney shoots the elephant

The news media was reporting it happens all the time, and had a woman say, I've got some birdshot in me (CBS). I don't know if quail hunting is really the macho image America should project, they're cute, they have tassels like college graduating alumni, and make a sound like "bob white! bob white! bob white!" Is that the answer to the "killer rabbit" media "joke" that went around during President Carter's term? It never ceases to amaze me that the so-called "brilliant" minds in this country, willing to lead, become so stupid and senseless with "swifties" "Willie Horton's" and tank helmets, etc., and then expect for people to take them seriously. Ralph Nader and the State of New Hampshire have the right idea, pay them an honorarium for the honor. Rescind Bush's salary back to Clinton's level (1/2) we deserve better for the $.
