Sojourner's Quote of the Week

Just received this from my SojoMail (sent by the Sojourners liberal/evangelical web site, which is led by author Jim Wallis)

"It has been brought to the Vice President's attention by the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department this afternoon that, although he had acquired a 125 dollar Texas non-resident season hunting license, he lacked a 7 dollar stamp for hunting upland game birds.... The Vice President has sent a 7 dollar check to the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department, which is the cost of an upland game bird stamp."

- First public statement from the office of Vice President Dick Cheney two days after he mistakenly shot Harry Whittington, a lawyer. A second statement, four days after the incident, described Whittington's medical condition, and that Cheney's "thoughts and prayers are with Mr. Whittington and his family."
