Patriot missile installed at snake Cheney's vacation site

As I write this, Mr. Cheney is vacationing at this "undisclosed location." Smack in the middle of Grand Teton National Park, despoiling the spectacular view of the Teton range, is a military installation, complete with a rotating mobile radar dish about half the size of a drive-in movie screen. On a nearby upscale guest ranch sits a Patriot missile installation. Quite a change from the several vacations by President Clinton taken here during his administration.

3. As accurate as the Patriot is...
... it has a better chance of taking out the park lodge than an in-coming missle.

5. What a symbol of their mentality: Patriot missiles are good assuming
you are up against someone with missiles, but what if they just have a lot of imagination and a boxcutter budget?

9. Cheney has added missles to his personal armory?




Machine Gun Cheney

Dick Cheney is a proud gun owner and hunter.

In April the Vice President addressed the NRA to wild cheers and acknowledged his own interest in guns.

But a source close to the White House tells NewsMax that Dick Cheney is a true gun aficionado.

Cheney's collection, our sources say, is in the hundreds of guns, including pistols, shotguns and machine guns -- from antique Thompsons to the most modern European automatic machine guns.

To let off some steam (God knows he has some to let off these days), the Vice President has been known to go out to the federal training center in Maryland where the Secret Service does its own gun practice.

A typical Cheney visit, told to us by a person who attended one, included the Vice President bringing some 30 guns from his own collection.

On the range, Cheney would blow away his targets -- with Thompson machine guns, the latest German and Austrian machine guns, Lugars, MP5s, shot guns, you name it.

One after another an aide would hand the Vice President his latest armament, and Cheney would fire away, no doubt imagining al-Qaeda terrorists in his gun sights.

We're told Cheney is a good shot to boot.

Cheney is not shy about his shooting activities. Another Cheney friend tells us that at the Cheneys' Christmas party last year he showcased to guests a video of himself shooting while hunting.

sorry about the link but I always find it interesting that the whole gun issue always seems to be reduced to a penis issue in some funny way, and Newsmax seems to tout this Cheney guy as having a big penis. I think Cheney has a big swollen penis from all the catheter installations.

10. missiles - don't leave home without them
At the Colony, the Secret Service was getting everything secured for when the president arrived on Sept. 10. That included snipers and surface-to-air missiles on the roof and the Coast Guard patrolling just offshore.

11. Maybe Cheney will arrange to release a flock of birds from a net
and he can push the button on the Patrioshit missile.
