Octopus of Odstock 2,186 Posted January 9, 2006 It's a terrible month for politicians and.....it's still only the 9th!!!!!! Someone has clearly made it their New Year's Resolution to kill, injure or give ill-health to as many politicans as possible - Arnold Schwarzenegger involved in a traffic accident I see today as well. If this person could aim towards Shamir, Foot, Pym, Ford & Haughey in the next few weeks, I will be most satisfied with my DDP total According to the latest, he should be discharged later today Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Either way, our rural roots need a boost and the worldwide publicity they'll gain from the DL is as welcome in Wiltshire as it is in West Cumbria. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
football_fan 42 Posted February 12, 2006 I wonder if Dick Cheney will go hunting with Pres Bush in the future Dick Cheney accidentally shoots fellow hunter WASHINGTON (AP) -- Vice President Dick Cheney accidentally shot and wounded a companion during a weekend quail hunting trip in Texas. Harry Whittington, a millionaire attorney from Austin, was "alert and doing fine" in a Corpus Christi hospital Sunday after he was shot by Cheney on a ranch in south Texas, said Katharine Armstrong, the property's owner.

Life Begins at 5 o'clock 7 Posted February 15, 2006 In the Washington Post there's a large article about his response and how off-putting it has been, even for the Republicans. It also mentioned how he internalizes many of his emotions. Surely can't be good for his ticker? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I suspect Cheney will be widely snubbed for this faux pas. A little off-season hunting is more widely accepted than you might realize. Really, it's for their own good as their population is ever expanding and their numbers continuely need to be thinned out. Poor creatures would drown in their own waste paper otherwise, truly a terrible way to go. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
