Former Vice President Dick Cheney will be in his home state of Wyoming this weekend to take part in an annual hunting competition. Gov. Matt Mead (R) will be his partner, as they look to bag themselves some bucks in the One Shot Antelope Hunt, held in Lander.
The event will kick off on Saturday morning, when eight teams of three come together on the first day of the antelope season and try to rack up the most single-shot antelope kills.
Word to the wise to Mead and his other partner, be careful hunting with Cheney. While the former Wyoming senator has been known to be something of an outdoorsman, it's impossible to forget that Cheney once shot a man in the face while hunting quail. ...........(more)

(53,339 posts)6. Excellent point, LOL!
Life also would be better if they set the post-hunt news report to Yakety Sax and play it at Benny Hill speed.

Isnt old crow Cheney one of the most vile and despicable excuses for a human being ever to set foot in the White House? Hes a vulture and a war-profiteer whose effigy should be lit afire in the streets every day he still walks around a free man. See some art and words defining his role in architecting a Society of Fear at http://dregstudiosart.blogspot.com/2010/04/inside-job.html
