Hunting with Dick

There’s a new bumper sticker hitting the streets this week:


Hunting with Dick

Letterman also had fun with this topic:

Top Ten Reasons It is Still Safer to Go Hunting with Dick Cheney than to Ride in a Car with Ted Kennedy

10. The Vice President doesn’t need to sober up before calling for help.

9. The Vice President travels with a medical team rather than a scandal sanitation squad.

8. Vice President Cheney does not have delusional Presidential aspirations to cloud his judgment in a crisis.

7. Hunting with the VP doesn’t involve navigating any dangerous bridges.

6. As the victim of an accident involving a Republican, your name will actually be reported on CNN and CBS news.

5. Cheney – Number 8 Bird Shot; Kennedy – 8 shots of Wild Turkey.

4. You don’t have to wait for Cheney to concoct an alibi before help arrives.

3. If there is an accident, Cheney will attempt to save your life rather than his political career.

2. You will be able to tell your children and grandchildren about hunting with the Vice President years later.

1. If Vice President Cheney makes a statement regarding Gun Safety, reporters will actually be able to ask you for a comment.

Polar Bear in Washington

Laugh, It's Funny

I wasn’t going to write anything about it. I wasn’t going to try to tell a joke about it. But Jay Leno’s jokes were too good last night. Here are two of his best:

Although it is beautiful here in California, the weather back East has been atrocious. There was so much snow in Washington, D.C., Dick Cheney accidentally shot a fat guy thinking it was a polar bear.

That’s the big story over the weekend. … Dick Cheney accidentally shot a fellow hunter, a 78-year-old lawyer. In fact, when people found out he shot a lawyer, his popularity is now at 92 percent.

He had a lot more and he could have gone on forever…

I’ve always been against treating kids with Ritalin. Here’s one more reason to be against it.

FDA: 51 attention drug patients died

Deaths of 51 U.S. patients who took widely prescribed drugs to treat attention deficit disorder prompted regulators to start watching for heart attacks, high blood pressure and other problems in 2004, a report released on Wednesday said.

 

The Food and Drug Administration staff did not say the drugs were responsible for the fatalities, but they urged close monitoring for “the rare occurrence of pediatric sudden death during stimulant therapy.”

“Peaceful” Muslims threaten radio host

I heard Russ talking about this on Mike Gallagher‘s show yesterday.  Mike admits he’s a coward.  He won’t put the cartoons on his website because he doesn’t want to get the kind of death threats Russ is getting.

Radio Hosts Taunted With Death Threats Over Muhammad Cartoon Controversy

A popular morning radio talk show host told his listeners on Greenville, SC-based WORD-AM on Wednesday morning that his life was threatened by someone after he made comments this week on a national radio program about the controversial cartoon depicting the image of the prophet Muhammad which has incited worldwide protests from the Muslim people.

Remember folks, Islam is the “Religion of Peace.” Yeah, right!

Hypocrites!

Media Bias

They wouldn’t hesitate to publish cartoons of Jesus Christ!

‘Inquirer’ One of Few U.S. Papers to Publish ‘Muhammad’ Cartoon

Most American papers have covered the issue, with many running Page One stories, most contend the cartoons are too offensive to run, and can be properly reported through descriptions. While some have linked to the images on the Web, others are considering publishing one or more of them next week.

[rant] Maybe we need some violence here in the US? Then the liberal pansies might realize Islam is a religion of violence, not a “religion of peace.” (But I seriously doubt it.)
