HUNTRESS HILLARY MOCKS CHENEY



After regaling a crowd in Wausau, Wis., with her tale about shooting a duck, Hillary Clinton got a chance to take a pot shot at Dick Cheney, thanks to a audience member who was am used that Clinton could hit a bird, while Cheney infamously bagged a lawyer.

“As long as you know how to use a gun, would you be willing to show Vice President Cheney how to use his?” Clinton was asked, bringing roars from the audience.

“Oh that was good! That was really good!” a laugning Clinton said..

“I know I couldn’t believe that,” she said “I really thought I’d gotten over being totally outraged by the Bush administration. Then that happened!”

Everyone was enjoying the moment so much, Clinton got in one last blast at Cheney.

“Once he’s out of the office and the Secret Service is not around to protect people from him, we better be careful about where he goes hunting,” she said to more howls of glee from the crowd. “A little gun safety protocol would be useful, don’t you think?”
