 Gunnin'
for the White House
When reality TV superstar Sarah Palin knocked
off a caribou for the cameras, the rifle shot reverberated
across the Republican Party's presidential short list.
Minnesota Gov. Tim Pawlenty reportedly scrambled
outside to blast a deer, Newt Gingrich boasted of gunning
down an illegal alien and former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee
spanked a monkey.
 Mitt
Romney had to be talked out of renting a tank and former
Vice President Dick Cheney shot a guy in the face for old
times' sake.
The quadrennial
ritual of presidential wannabes taking up arms (and
donning brand-new blaze orange) is a transparently choreographed
salute to the Second Amendment and the NRA -- a
big game that promises to be even more cartoonish
in Election 2012 as Palin's caribou kill shot echoes from
Alaska to Iowa.
By busting a cap into that reindeer's face,
Palin fired a warning shot aimed at a certain confused pack
of elephants -- she is the hunter and they are the prey.
