Or Would the secret service help him out?

Well since the VP really didn't do too much damage, I'd say he needs the help of the secret service! :D

Heheh!

On an informative note, the tale of the duel between Hamilton and Burr is kind of interesting:

The duel, even in modern times might be a good thing?

Burr btw took a cheap shot, because in duels you are supposed to basically shoot without the intent to kill, getting to shoot second and putting one in the gut of the Secretary of State - Alexander Hamailton was a bit, err, #$%^@!$

But, at least he screwed himself from getting his face on money. Heh. :cool:

He invited him to go, lots of planning usually involved. Greg Lemond (3 time Tour De France winner) got shot in similar fashion...btw, have you ever been hunting?

no, much like bombing Iraq back to the stone age, I don't beleive in killing unarmed innocents

I imagine this type of hunting was quite strenous though

being driven 5 - 10 feet from the coops where our wingless farm grown quail are released so the privilaged can feel good about themselves by shooting them for their own amusement somehow doesn't have the appeal to me as it does to our Veep

Something about fish in a barrel...

The entire media has some nerve calling it hunting. As Chuck Norris facts prove, hunting implies the chance of failure

Much like in Iraq, Cheney went out killing

And he failed so was, in fact, hunting humans.

In some states, if they are trespassing, yes.

I dunno, I couldn't live on lettuce and tofu.

I actually like tofu, fixed right, but I don't think I could live on the stuff.

I value my canines, I guess.

Yeah, the guy was only in intensive care for a day or so and then had a heart attack this morning. Not much damage at all.
