Look what we missed when the press was focused on Elmer Fudd Cheney.

I was bumping around al jezeera earlier today (one line at a time, the free translating is a pain but this slow task is worth the trouble as the English version is somewhat sanitized, shall we say?) - Do you realize that the good video is on the Arabic website? It's true. Just like sister networks CNN, MSNBC and others that come to mind, Al Jezeera, has video highlights. Granted, these may be incomprehensible if one doesn't understand Arabic, however, when a somewhat (God help us) prominent American is on Arabic television looking angry, you can bet there is more about what exactly was being said, somewhere.

This very newsworthy story made the pages of at least two Arabic papers - They did not miss a beat; not one word about Dick Cheney's hunting accident could be found in two prominent Arabic newspapers, but Al Gore made the front page. Think about that for a moment. In our country, a former vice-president who takes a side trip and slams the U.S. over and over again for alleged abuses to Arabic's living here, (he also invented the internet), is not quite as important as the current V.P.'s goof-up in a quail shoot.

Putting things into perspective for a moment, the hunting accident was funny in a way, however, the media has taken it to extreme's - what should have been a huge cartoon on every editorial page in the country, landed front page press. What would these progressive communists posing as liberal democrats do if they took the time to research just how many hunting accidents happen each year - to include guns, bows, arrows even fish hooks! This revelation might call for an entire new diagnosis by some mental health guru for the depression they would suffer and the legislation they would propose.

I believe what is most shocking is a that a former vice president who sounds a lot like Fidel castro (code pink's favorite poster boy), is allowed to run about making statements that sit on the edge of insanity and border on treason.

Since no mention will be made in the front pages of any times in the country (maybe there will be an exception, but it's hard to track 2000 plus newspapers - then perhaps more hunting accident's could occur. What about a group hunt?

I realize I’m going to sound a bit right of center today, maybe even somewhat fascists, however, we know john kerry likes to pretend he can hunt, let's throw a party and put him, palosi, gore, carter, kennedy (oh wait, the republican party needs him right where he is) - say in vermont - with any weapon and see what happens. My left of center union organizing, card carrying democratic party faithful should be turning at a rapid rate in his grave over this. He was above all a patriot and despised communism and fascism in any form. His party is no more.

This latest outburst just really takes the cake. Links below
