Has Cheney commented on it? I didn't think he had said much of anything.

Sorry, you're right. I don't think Cheney's said anything (contempt!), but McClellan's been sticking to a wording that very clearly exonerates Cheney from shooting the guy due to his sloppy (and, as I'd wager most hunters would consider them, wussy) hunting habits.

Well, commenting or not Cheney is "handling" the thing.

Someone just sent me an e-mail with the subject line: IMPORTANT IMPORTANT IMPORTANT

Please to be dropping dead now.

The insiders say that Tom, 43, and Katie, 27, plan to keep up the charade of a romance until after their baby’s birth this spring. In the meantime, the couple will live in his Beverly Hills home — though sleeping in separate bedrooms — through the summer.

And this indicates a change from the previous state of their relationship how, exactly?

How are these animals hunted? Do they have lots of space to hide, or is it, like, shooting elk in a barrel?

It's the Texas Hill Country. The tallest trees are some 8-10 feet tall and they're spread out in a way that no one could reasonably think "forest." These ranches have to feed 'em because there's none of their natural habitat. And it's 115 degrees out in the summer. So, yeah, these brave hunters shoot stunted, semi-domesticated, heat-stunned pathetic little elk. I should be clear that I don't know whether the Armstrong Ranch (which is about the size of a Central American country) practices this sort of bullshit game hunting, but it's all over the Hill Country and even west towards Del Rio.

Point, Matt.

I'm not sure manslaughter is technically a "high crime".

Well, maybe...

"Duuuuude. You totally manslaughtered that guy...."

It's a felony, which means it's not a misdemeanor.
