BUSH PROPOSES 'NO QUAILS LEFT BEHIND'


New Education Initiative for Hunters Attempts to Defuse Cheney Crisis

With Vice President Dick Cheney's accidental shooting of a fellow bird
hunter last Saturday threatening to become a full-blown crisis,
President George W. Bush today attempted to defuse the controversy by
proposing a new education program for hunters called "No Quails Left Behind."

Speaking at the White House, President Bush said that Mr. Cheney had
done the nation "a big favor" by demonstrating that a massive overhaul of
the nation's educational system for hunters was "long overdue."

"We have been sitting idly by while other nations, such as China and
Japan, have outpaced us in hunter education," Mr. Bush said. "If it took
Dick Cheney to shoot a guy in the face to serve as a wake-up call, we
all owe him a debt of thanks."

The vice president himself appeared ready to start repairing the P.R.
damage caused by his hunting mishap, telling reporters this afternoon
that after obtaining five deferments during the Vietnam War he was
finally ready to take up military service for his country.

"I have a gun and I've demonstrated that I'm not afraid to use it," Mr.
Cheney said. "The President of Iran should watch what he does if he
doesn't want to be peppered with pellets."

Asked about Mr. Cheney's implied threat, Iranian President Mahmoud
Ahmadinejad said he was "unworried," adding, "If Cheney tried to shoot me
he'd probably wind up hitting the President of Iraq."

Elsewhere, actors Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes "have never been more in
love and are definitely not splitting up," according to the couple's
official spokesman, James Frey.
