“This administration is populated by people who’ve spent their careers bashing government. They’re not just small-government conservatives—they’re Grover Norquist, strangle-it-in-the-bathtub conservatives. It’s a cognitive disconnect for them to be able to do something well in an arena that they have so derided and reviled all these years.”

Makes you wonder

You may remember before the 2004 election that Field and Stream magazine published interviews with both incumbent George W. Bush and challenger John F. Kerry.

I wish I had seen it about a month ago:
Evans: Who's the better shot, you or Vice President Cheney?

President Bush: No contest - —Vice President Cheney. He is an avid outdoorsman. I had him down here for some meetings, and we got up first thing in the morning and went fishing. He flyfished, and I bubba-baited. But he loved it.

Which makes me wonder what might have happened if the President had chosen to go hunting on that fateful Saturday afternoon.
