"An excellent shot, Cheney is modest even in sport. "
http://quest.morris.com/stories/121400/gen_1214007410.shtml

Texas rancher Tobin Armstrong, a longtime friend and hunting buddy of Cheney's, says that despite his taciturn image, the future vice president is "the most delightful fellow you could possibly imagine." Funny, too, though his humor is "a little on the dry side," Armstrong said.

An excellent shot, Cheney is modest even in sport.

"He doesn't claim the bird. He's not an 'I-got-him' type of fellow," Armstrong said. "He just enjoys himself thoroughly."

4. Cheney
Cheney's just getting a bit senile. Probably thought he was at Bohemian Grove there, for a minute.

Slaughtering birds just to see them die.

9. When there's 500 birds to go around
You obviously aren't shooting them because you're going to take them home for dinner. Not an "I got him" type, STFU Toejam.

12. Reminds me of the pheasant shooting scene in Moonraker
When Drax tells Bond "Such good sport" and James says "Unless you're a pheasant".

Then of course 007 shoots, misses the bird and Drax says "you missed, Mr Bond...", at which point a body falls from a tree holding a rifle and Bond replies "Did I?".

No...What the hell would Cheney do with a dead bird? Have Lynn clean and cook it?

It's all about the blood for this ghoul
