“Winner will be responsible for securing all required licenses and for costs of transportation to attend the shooting excursion,” the rules said, “including, but not limited to ground transportation, airfare, personal charges at lodging, telecommunications charges, security fees, taxes, or other expenses or incidentals are the responsibility solely of the winner.”

So, what exactly are you winning here? A few hours with that delightful Ted Cruz?? No thanks.

Hopefully a sleeper/terrorist suicide bomber will win!

I wonder if the background check will include the winner’s voting record, you know to keep out those pesky liberals, PETA members, or non Christians?

All I’d like to see is software that lets a person reach thru the computer and punch him in the nose. Not gun violence …we’ve seen enough of what guns do.

Yes, this is different. But here is what he opposed per the article:
“but specifically opposed the 2013 bill, which would have imposed them on sales between private individuals.”

So he thinks that retail sales should require background checks, but private sales should not? That’s an absurd position.

No, you don’t have a right to sell a gun to a person who should not have one. How hard is that?

Maybe Cruz will trip and shoot himself.

Because if there was EVER an avatar for Elmer Fudd it is this cabron.

If Cheney wins, he must use Cruz’s personalized Smart gun that only Cruz can fire.

This just sounds like the worst contest ever. The winner gets to spend a day with a completely unelectable asshole? Is the consolation prize a bucket of pig fat? I’ll take the pig fat.

Also, what a goddamned hypocrite.

No problem. The fellow hunter he shot in the face told us that himself, apologizing to Cheney for all the trouble he had caused by getting shot in the face. Dick Cheney did nothing wrong. Ever. I’m sure Ted Cruz would agree.
