A white house source stated Congress is considering awarding
Vice-President Dick Cheney the Medal of Freedom, the nation's highest
civilian commendation, for his act of bravery in shooting an attorney. The
source was quoted to say, "All Americans have wanted to shoot a lawyer at
one time or another and Cheney actually had the guts to do it".
In a related story, the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department, which issues
hunting licenses, said that it will start requiring hunters, wishing to
bag a lawyer, to have the new "lawyer's stamp" on their hunting license.
Currently Texas hunters are required to carry stamps for hunting birds,
deer, and bear, at a cost of $7 annually. The new "lawyers stamp" will
cost $100, but open season will be all year long. The department further
stated that although the "lawyers stamp" comes at hefty price, sales have
been brisk and it is believe it will generate annual revenues in excess
of $3 billion dollars the first year.
Other states are considering similar hunting stamps.
