Where did you read this? Everything I've read says he had a legitimate hunting license.

Since it's long, here's the quote from the article:
"The Texas Parks and Wildlife Department gave Cheney and Whittington warning citations for breaking Texas hunting law by failing to buy a $7 stamp allowing them to shoot upland game birds. A department spokesman said warnings are being issued in most cases because the stamp requirement only went into effect five months ago and many hunters weren't aware of it.

Cheney's office said Monday night in a statement that Cheney had a $125 nonresident hunting license and has sent a $7 check to cover the cost of the stamp."

Excuse me, I should have been more verbose. While cheney did have a hunting license, without the specific stamp that he did not have, it was not a VALID license for the type of hunting in which he participated. It still amounts to poaching. The excuse that it was a "new requirement" is no excuse at all. Ignorance of the law is no excuse. It is the responsibility of EVERY hunter to be sure he is familiar with, and in compliance with, all laws and licensing requirements BEFORE he picks up the weapon. And purchasing the stamp after the fact should not be mitigating.

We have to look at the lighter side of this ... ;-)
We should send him to Iraq again to help our soldiers ...

His aim seems pretty GOOD for an old guy with a bad heart ...

:wall:

That pic of him superimposed over the Columbine shooters is out of line.

Agreed. So was Rush Limbaugh's characterization of the Abu Ghraib torture as no worse than fraternity pranks.

I'm as deep in left field as anybody, and I know it's mostly comic fodder, but I think there's already enough political stuff to bash Cheney on without this. It's immaterial.

 

[D_Humper E Bogart]

Well, I'd hate to be a female Iraqi right about now. Well, human tissue can be broken down into oil products I suppose...urk

Get the song here.

Well, um, my point exactly. Under Texas law, what cheney did constitutes a Class C Misdemeanor. There are specific subsections in the Texas Legal Code which make it very clear that purchasing a game stamp after the fact does not cover the misdemeanor committed before the purchase. Will he be prosecuted? Oh Hell No. We already knew that, didn't we?

Will he be prosecuted? I think not. Cheney's one of the elite and the laws the rest of us must obey don't apply to the likes of him.

Notice that big media is already offering us elaborately spun stories about how Cheney is suffering in the aftermath of the shooting. You're supposed to feel sorry for him, DC_Deep, so get with the plan. He's just a humble guy who made a mistake. In fact, Whittington and his family are being portrayed as being worried about how Cheney is coping.

Of course, if an official in the previous administration accidentally shot someone a special prosecutor would have been appointed to spend millions of the taxpayer's dollars over the next few years investigating the president's sex life and rummaging around through the first lady's personal finances.

Where's a "blam" list when you need it then?

 

[cruztbone]

I know John Edwards doesnt shoot quail. That, plus the fact he doesnt take 4 days to sober up and face a friendly reporter from FUX news should recommend him to take over the office in 2008......

IMPEACHMENT IS THE ONLY ANSWER TO AVOID 3 MORE YEARS OF SUFFERING!
