Cheney cited for breaking law...

[St.James]

Not for shooting a man in the fricken face with a shotgun, but for not having a $7 stamp on his hunting license...

Nice priorities, huh? [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

Re: Cheney cited for breaking law...

Well, he didn't break any laws by shooting the guy in the face. It was a hunting accident. Guys get shot and killed hunting all the time.

He thought he was above the law with not getting the stamp [img]/images/graemlins/nono.gif[/img] Every bird hunter knows you need it. I always get the pheasant/quail stamp.

Why hunt pigeons?

Re: Cheney cited for breaking law...

Stamp? We don't need no stinking stamps!!


I had to laugh though, mentioning they had to get out of the car and shoot at the quail. I guess shooting from the car would have been a bit poacherlike, hehe...

Bzzzt! Thanks for playing. He had the required federal stamp but he didn't have the brand-spanking new Texas stamp that they just began requiring this year. His office requested from TX Deparment of Wildlife "all necessary" licenses, permits, & stamps and the folks in TX screwed up. The stampe was so new they didn't even know to inform Cheney that it was required, hence the TX D/W's statement that they're simply issuing warnings to all offenders without this new stamp this season. It had *nothing* to do with Cheney thinking that he was "above the law".

The bad news: Cheney shot some 78 year old guy in the face with a shotgun. The good news: The guy was a lawyer!
(sorry if you read this Keith, just couldn't resist!)

Y'know, there are plenty of reasons to criticize these guys without resorting to making them up. [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

Re: Cheney cited for breaking law...

I bet it was an elaborate plan to avoid paying the $7. Clearly, going through the motions of getting the other permits was just a clever ruse. I'm sure he figured it was worth the risk of the media finding out about it and running the story, just as long as he could save the $7.

And as long as he didn't pop a cap in his buddy. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Re: Cheney cited for breaking law...

Hmmm....Let's see-

Everyone else had the stamp, except the VP of the USA? [img]/images/graemlins/brow.gif[/img] No one noticed he didn't have it, and neither did he! Not the attorney, not the owners of the land, not the guides, not the US Secret Service, no one? Amazing [img]/images/graemlins/bs.gif[/img]!

News flash! The Texas Dept. of Wildlife 'screwed up'= Cheney's way of saving face, imho. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Re: Cheney cited for breaking law...

yeah, this rises to the level of impeachment for sure.........liberals-hahahahahaha.This is news?

The only one who should be saving face is the lawyer who got his blown off [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Re: Cheney cited for breaking law...

Good point seed...

My question now is: Who's going to be Cheney's hunting partner now? [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]
