    A perfect example of how immature and dishonest the left is.

    This kind of infantile rhetoric is why the left gets no sympathy when similarly infantile rhetoric is used against Obama. You spent eight years making absolutely absurd statements like the above, so you shouldn't be surprised now that it's being used against Obama.

    I wouldn't say that. I imagine it was more like him and a group of friends had a few beers, drove out to a hunting area for rich people with no patience for real hunting (quail in a fenced in area...so fail...) and a couple of the guys had some girls with them who's names have not been disclosed (likely due to their professions...). when they got their they set off to hunt some game (if you can call quail game with a straight face...). In the process a buzzed Cheney shot a buzzed friend who "crossed into the line of fire" (really Dick? either your reflexes are straight up (*)(*)(*)(*) or you were drunk, there's no way around it). In the panic that followed they got the guy to the hospital, shooed away the chicks, then layed low for a day pretending nothing had happened. Then the press go wind of it and Dick had to make the unceremonious 5 minute visit to his "friend" at the hospital (over a day after he had put a shell full of bird shot into him...).

    They'd make a good team but I'd rather see Santorum get the VP.

    Sounds like a lot of speculation on your part.

    Huntsman stepping out of the race doesn't surprise me. He simply lacked the support and funding for a nationwide campaign.

    I do not think his endorsement of Romney is a bid for the VP slot. As I've stated a couple of times previously, I expect a Romney/Thune ticket, if Romney secures the nomination.

    I believe Huntsman is a person of integrity. I wish him well in the future.

    Huntsman will never be VP -- that would be described as a Mormon take-over. The Evangelicals wouldn't stand for it. I'm thinking Secretary of Foreign Affairs.

    How exactly do you fence in quail? Were their wings clipped? No, that can't be it because Cheney was shooting at one flying when he shot his friend. Hmmm, maybe they were pen raised birds (which is very common) and you misunderstood.

    Of course he was going to endorse Romney, it has nothing to do with a VP slot wanted. Where do you guys come up with this garbage? Huntsman will not be the VP choice, even he knows this.

    these ones had their wings clipped so they would not be able to fly higher than ten feet. the place is fenced in, and after you pay the people who run it. You and your buddies actually are driven to where the animals are...
    Also... disabled quail hunting with birdshot.... (wtf is going to be left of the quail when you hit it with a round of birdshot from 12 feet away?)
    I am guessing the next day they were going to hunt three legged deer with Assault rifles.

    Also, the story Cheney released didn't make any (*)(*)(*)(*) sense. In a group hunt, everyone is standing in some form of a line. There isn't a dude 20 feet out who yells FIRE! And even if the guy did get in front of everyone else Cheney still somehow had a 3 second delay between his brain and his trigger finger or he was just plain drunk off his rocker. Which would explain the hangover recovery period that happened in the day between the accident and him visiting his "friend".

    A perfect example of someone stereotyping people and deciding what they think them.


    I certainly don't speak for "the left". I wasn't around this forum during the Bush administration, so you have no idea what I said for those eight years. Is your ODS really that bad that you found a way to take a statement I made, as an individual, and somehow drag obama into it while calling "the left" immature? Seriously? Your intire argument revolves around the notion that since "the left" made infantile comments during the Bush admin that its OK that people make infantile comments about obama. Oh yeah, that's real (*)(*)(*)(*)ing mature. If "the left" jumped off a cliff would you jump off too?





    And what's so "absurd" about my origional statement? It totally (*)(*)(*)(*)ing happened.
