Someone just tweeted a video of Huckabee on a "pheasant hunt" that consisted of an aide letting a bird out of a cage maybe 15 feet away and the Huckster shooting it out of the air within two seconds. It was basically skeet shooting with a living target.

I've heard of this kind of hunt before when Cheney blasted his "friend" in the face but I've never actually seen it done. You have to be a sadistic rear end in a top hat to call that "hunting" when you're basically skipping the whole hunt and just killing a captive bird at point blank range.

Which I guess makes sense when taking Cheney and Huckabee's character into consideration.

Ted Nugent may be just as much of a pants shitter as Chuck C. Johnson and David Vitter, but at least he actually hunts instead of just doing this poo poo.

Also, that's now 3 conservatives that are also pants shitters I can name off the top of my head, which is 3 more than anyone should really have committed to memory.

Those planned hunts say really all you need to know about someone's character or lack thereof. If gun culture wasn't such a thing, I assume it would be more efficient and satisfying for these types to just reach into the box and snap the animal's neck with their bare hands then throw away the carcass.

Typically you're supposed to have them released onto a plot of farmland and you use a bird dog to track them. Even that I'd considered borderline sportsmanlike. What Huckabee is doing is flat retarded. Gonna guess he doesn't eat what he kills either.

You have to remember that the Huckabees have a long and noble tradition of inflicting extreme physical and mental pain on animals for their own sexual gratification.

It's the rich rear end in a top hat version of trap shooting. It's quite common, sadly. One of my friends went and got a freezer full of pheasant at least.

Don't worry, I'm sure Louisiana will do anything to avoid the D because we can't help ourselves. Edwards is pro-gun and anti-abortion and people will still fling themselves away by reflex.

Maybe, maybe not. I'm seeing posts like the one below shared on Facebook quite a bit.

When a pro life, pro gun West Point graduate, (who still adheres to their Honor Code) law degree holding family valued politician with zero skeletons in his closet, who happens to be a Democrat, cannot get your vote over a scandal ridden character like David Vitter, you need to seriously reassess your values and priorities.

I saw a commercial this morning that was nothing more than Angelle and Dardenne from the debates trashing Vitter. Combined with the news that Bel Edwards actually leads in the polls, it might not be as far-fetched as previously thought.

EDIT: WRT to Vitter, I can't really tell if I have a good read of the situation or not. All my facebook contacts are from the rural conservastrip of Northeastern LA and the "I'm not a Republican, more like a Libertarian" Zone of the northern Pontchartrain. Despite the incredible Jindal hate in Monroe, all of my coworkers are professing support for Vitter, while the economically better off Republicans back home are still birthers. As always, the leftist leaning folks are few.

And keep in mind that if Vitter loses the gubernatorial race he might decided to stay on and run for his Senate seat again, which would turn that into a possible Democratic pickup in 2016.

Learned from the kiddie table debate:

Before Bobby Jindal became Governor, Louisiana had a budget surplus. They're now in the hole $1.6 Billion dollars.

Gosh that sounds like a time in US history, I just can't put my finger on it. Something about 1999-2000, maybe? Hmm, what happened after 2000?

Yes, but that doesn't mean he wouldn't run. The thought was if Vitter wins the governor's race, Jindal might shoot for Vitter's Senate seat.

Of course, that assumes he isn't president.
