Cheney busted on technicality
It appears from this news clipping from a Michigan paper that, since there is no real law against being Satan, the Vice President was hauled in for having relations with a dead dog.Michigan's Bay City Times posted this article about Ronald E. Kuch, a man charged under the state's existing sodomy law for a tryst with a dead dog behind a daycare center, next to a photo of Dick Cheney after the latter's escape from a Taliban suicide bomber.
Kuch was charged with sodomy because there's nothing on Michigan's books about what a man and a dead dog (who love each other very much) can or cannot do.
Kuch's attorney, Kathryn Fehrman, argued that a dead dog is not an animal and therefore cannot be violated against its will. I agree. I believe a dead dog is actually a desk.
Cheney used similar logic when he said that waterboarding was not torture. It's just "a dunk in water," he said.
I asked the article's author, Crystal Harmon, if the juxtaposition of Cheney and Kuch's story mightn't have been accidental.
She responded:
We don't post photos with our stories...the website guys who work for our chain in Ann Arbor, I believe, post photos for each of our 7 papers in Michigan, and the local stories that run alongside them are unrelated. I have heard from a couple people who found this amusing, though.See also: Judge says local suspect will stand trial for sodomy; Rum, Sodomy, & the Lash
