3. Who would be paying for this trip?
I wonder if Dunky was just trying to score an exciting vacation on the taxpayer's dime.

4. What a sport! Might as well hunt cows.
I am pretty sure that Chad has cattle.

Duncan Dumbass Hunter does it again.

5. Nothing gnu here, given that he's a Rethuglican.
I guess he'll just leave Chad hanging.
