Cheney has a real history of questionable hunting behavior. He is apparently obsessed with hunting and is a regular patron of canned hunts. We don't like to see the Vice President of the U.

Hunting is supposed to involve a fair chase with the animal having an opportunity to evade the hunter. But this eliminates the possibility of failure.

This much-needed legislation will codify a temporary administrative ban on the processing of downer cattle and it will expand the ban on the processing of other downer livestock. Animals too sick or injured to walk are a higher risk for mad cow disease, E. coli and salmonella, and they suffer terribly when they're dragged to slaughter.
