How many taxpayer dollars wre spent taking Cheney

[heidiho]

on his hunting trip -

1. Does he go on Air Force 2
2. Takes how many Secret Service people with him
3. Now we know he takes a medical entourage (at our expense)

What the hell else are we paying for when he goes on his little hunting junkets? I am so outraged at the waste of my taxpayer dollars in this administration, this is just another outrage.

Does anyone have any info on these costs?

1. Yes..especially since Dick apparently takes alot of these

weekend trips. I'm sure it costs us millions of dollars so the big dick can spend his weekends shooting small creatures and large lawyers! I think the pres and vp need to have a vacation allowance and they can't go over it.

2. and I am outraged by canned hunting being an accepted practice

how would the MSM and repukes spin it if Clinton, Kerry, Gore and Dean went on canned hunts on a regular basis. Where endangered species were brought in and animals are bread just to be blown away for sport!
you can bet your ass this would be in ever news organization throughout the country.

why is there no outrage about this inhumane practice...

4. Agreed -- we are blessed by such highly moral political leaders.

3. I agree....

While watching the coverage on this story I couldn't help but think about that also. But at the same time I think it is worth it. At least for the weekend he was where he really couldn't hurt any body. Well other than quails and repub donors. It's safer than having him in Washington stroking his evil cat and planning another war. The same can be said for W and his extensive vacation time.

5. The taxpayers probably pay for all his ammunition which he

gives to all his friends...and ammunition is very expensive.
The man is a natural born killer! He probably spends every waking free hour hunting down something to kill. If he had just joined the military when he could have done his country some good...maybe he would have gotten his killing needs out of his system. Instead thousands of poor wildlife have to pay with there lives. I can't understand this man's need to kill. Has he no conscience or compassion?
