“Hillary Oakley’s wild Pennsylvania show”

You might want to ask yourself:

Who would I want to go hunting with, Hillary Clinton or Dick Cheney?

Well trained novice hunters are usually attentive to gun safety. You might “save your face” by hunting with Hillary.





The guns and NRA is a separate issue from hunting.



There are lots of Democrats who are fanatic hunters and fishermen. (I describe a fanatic sportsman as someone who when faced with a choice between family and job or hunting and fishing always chooses hunting and fishing.) There wives, if they have any, are sometimes described as “saints”.



The real hunters, not the ones who sit around and read the “American Rifleman” are also avidly opposing the anti-environment Republican agenda. If the Republicans have their way there will be lots of guns and nothing to hunt.



It is easy to see the effects of the Republican anti-environmental program in Montana. Mining and drilling are killing the outdoors there. Global warming has created a 9 years running drought. It’s very hard to go fishing in a desert; and a desert is what a very large chunk of Montana is becoming. Many sportsmen, particularly in Montana where more than ½ the residents came there to hunt and or fish are extremely anti- Bush and sometimes extremely anti-Republican.



Both the Clintons and McCain are courting after the Regan Democrats (i.e. Segregationists).



Not all the reports are in from people who were at the “Brunch with Bill” event today. The police estimate for the number of people attending the event at the Union Hall was approximately 150 persons. Some of them took Obama material. I think that there may have been more police and Secret Service people here than attendees.



I could not attend. Someone in my family needed a ride to the hospital.

We don't need 'one of us' in the White House
As a gun owner and hunter, I have trouble welcoming Hillary Clinton into the gun fraternity...or sorority in her case.

And, as a recovering alcoholic who used to toss down more than his share of shots, I have even more trouble imagining an evening at the local bar tossing back boilermakers with the Democratic Presidential pretender.

Yet claims of a hunting heritage and downing shots of Crown Royal and chasing it with a beer is part of Clinton's latest attempt to prove she's just one of us.

According to CNN [1]:

Hillary Clinton appealed to Second Amendment supporters on Saturday by hinting that she has some experience of her own pulling triggers.

"I disagree with Sen. Obama's assertion that people in our country cling to guns and have certain attitudes about trade and immigration simply out of frustration," she began, referring to the Obama comments on small-town Americans that set off a political tumult on Friday.

She then introduced a fond memory from her youth.

"You know, my dad took me out behind the cottage that my grandfather built on a little lake called Lake Winola outside of Scranton and taught be how to shoot when I was a little girl," she said.

"You know, some people now continue to teach their children and their grandchildren. It's part of culture. It's part of a way of life. People enjoy hunting and shooting because it's an important part of who they are. Not because they are bitter."

ABC reports [2]:

Clinton stood by the bar and took a shot of Crown Royal whiskey. She took one sip of the shot
