Sarah Palin on Dick Cheney's worst act as VP: shooting another hunter
LA Times ^
Posted on 10/02/2008 4:44:43 PM PDT by Chet 99
CBS anchor Katie Couric’s series of interviews with Republican vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin made headlines nearly every day in the last week, and the final installment that airs this evening will likely be no exception.
As part of the "Vice Presidential Questions" series running on "CBS Evening News," Couric asked both Palin and her Democratic counterpart, Sen. Joe Biden, to name the best thing and the worst thing Vice President Dick Cheney has done in office.
Palin cited Cheney’s support for the troops as his best accomplishment. The worst, she said: “I guess that would have been the duck hunting accident."
The Alaska governor, a longtime moose hunter, was referring to Cheney’s accidental shooting of a fellow quail hunter on a Texas ranch in February 2006.
"You know, that was an accident," she said. "And I think that was made into a caricature of him. And that was kind of unfortunate."
Biden had a different take on the vice president.

I assume the perky one had another "gotcha" moment with this. It wasn't a DUCK hunting accident, as Palin said, it was a QUAIL hunting accident. So Palin's not ready to step in at a moment's notice.

And Cheney would probably agree!

It’s the only thing Cheney’s done wrong that I can think of.
Too bad he didn’t run for Pres.

Worst mistake? Not inviting Nancy Pelosi on a quail hunting trip.

I'm telling you ... and I've been saying this since August ... here is the killer SNL skit of the year!
Cheney and Palin ON A HUNTING TRIP!
A passing of the torch, as it were!

No, here’s a better answer:
“He didn’t take Nancy Pelosi hunting with him.”

Did Biden remember who Cheney is? He seems to mix these things up.

Yeah, and you’d probably use a bigger gun hunting moose than birds...

Biden picks LBJ as his favorite VP. LOL. Hell, he is supposed to be so experienced and an old Washington Dem. Biden missed the boat by not naming HST, an obvious and easy choice.

I hope that Vice President-Elect Palin and Cheney go hunting together mid-November. Rub the moonbats noses in it. LOL.
