On the other hand, my range only allows paper targets...
You remind me of my Uncle Tom. Like me, he is an ornery Libertarian college prof. (who bares a very scary resemblence to Tombogan) and was no friend of W. After the Patriot Act was passed he got pissed and mailed W. a copy of J.S.Mill's "On Liberty" and a copy of "The Federalist Papers" to the Pres., with a suggestion that he actually read them. Funny thing is though, that some staffer thought he had sent W. a nice gift (both were leather bound, because when Uncle Tom says f..k you he, and I quote "wants to do it with class").

He got an effusive thank you letter and a hand signed picture (no auto pen) from the the jackass in chief. Said picture was taken to the range and 7 nicely grouped .45 caliber holes adorn it. It was only through the intervention of his wife and my dad that he was dissuaded from mailing it back to the President with the message "Can you hear me now?" written on the front.

Crazy as hell, but it runs in the family.
