A few years ago my brother made caribou stew. I really enjoyed it.

“A few years ago my brother made caribou stew. I really enjoyed it.”

“Caribou Stew” - Sounds like you’ve got the beginning of a Dr. Seuss thing going there.

Maybe we should just get rid of Mclame and put Sarah in the drivers seat.

If anybody criticizes the photo, just tell them it was the ‘before’ shot when they gutted the caribou and slept in the carcass overnight to keep from freezing. Then ask them if they have ever tried it.

Had a buffalo steak once. I didn’t enjoy it. Think I got a bad cut. I’ve only had caribou sausage, which was underwhelming.

Now, if only should she could find (in Ted Nugent’s words) a target rich environment.

Does it matter if it’s a simulator or not? Does it matter if the gun is loaded or not?

Didn’t take the AP long, did it?

What they don't get is the rope a dope. They think "she's just a woman", so we'll attempt to turn off the Hillary voter.

What they don't get is that for working men all over the United States, that is a picture of their perfect woman.

A few feminists that would have never voted for her in the first place will get a talking point, and millions of men will get real change they can believe it.

Palin is no emasculating shrew, she's every real man's sweetheart.

That appears to be an M-4 equiped with a laser scorer. She could be ready to shoot. After all, she appears to have a reporter in front of her.

Read2Know, re: the AP “photo” ... Maybe I’m being thick-headed here, but it would seem that the photo belongs to the Heath family [ (AP Photo/Heath Family) ] ... AP is simply hosting it, but they don’t own it, they are merely giving a credit, and hosting it. I don’t see how it goes against their policies unless you are hot-linking it.

Um it’s a training simulator, not a gun, and she is in the process of shooting with it. There’s a video of it.

Know about her experience, I would trust her to have the finger off the trigger in that photo. She probably just finished the shot and is coming off the trigger when the photo was taken.

I used an Army simulator when they first appeared on the scene. The rifle I was using had a damaged front sight. Some years later, I went to another event and it seems they had the exact same simulator set up. The rifle still had that same damaged front sight.
