I had read about a report of Cheney using heliocopters to "herd" birds to his guns, I really cannot remember where, but I wrote it off as political fantasy, similar to an "Onion" account. Well, just about one year ago my father in law died, and we made the sad trip to Lake Charles for the undertakings. In the days that followed, I met up with my cousin in law, Charley, who I had heard of before but prolly never met, unless in passing at a wedding or such. We got to enjoy each others company during the rituals, tho we are not too alike. Charley is a redneck and proud of it. Even my fourteen year old son recognized it. I loaned him a jacket to wear to the funeral (no I gave it to him), and I believe he said it was the first sport jacket he had ever worn. (Lake Charles is about as hot as Hades, so that is not too surprising. But I did say he was a redneck? - Yes - a great redneck. To prove it he paid $4000 to have his huge Ford 250 truck painted in a glossy cammo that has to be seen to believed. Charley owns a hunting resort outside of LC, where he has some acreage and breed s pheasent and a bunch of other birds, deer, pigs, Heck I don't know what else, but that is what he does. Folks come and pay his $$$ to hunt the animals on his property. Well we were all sitting around the back pourch, and (I don't remember how the subject broached) but this is his Dick Cheney story. Remember this person is so totally without guile and politically naive to a degree I can hardly stress. He was guiding a bird hunt on his property with some of his clients when one or several heliocopters (I cannot remember so I'll just say one) came flying low and slow over his property. Before them went clouds of birds. The chopper was herding birds off his property. Well this dismayed his paying clients and pissed off Charley the red neck, duh. So Charley gets in his truck and goes over the the other camp where the birds are being herded. In he goes as I am sure he knows the owners. He is stopped by the US Secret Service, and is told that Cheney and friends are hunting. No they were killing. Charley says, and I do believe him, he saw Cheney with a mound of dead birds four to five feet high, and the chopper was still at work scareing the birds to the VPOTUS. He told them they were taking his birds and wrecking his livelyhood. They told his to screw off. What could he do? That is my relative from Lake Charles, Louisiana, who is as honest and straight shooting as they come. I cannot and do not believe he made up any of it.

How in the hell could you, or Chuck, make up a story like this? If you'll forgive me, coon-asses live stories - they don't have to make them up. (And I have friends and relatives down in Metarie.)
I wouldn't, he couldn't.
