Thanks to GQ's Marc Ambinder, we now know the Secret Service codenames for all four men on the major party tickets. The newest addition: Paul Ryan's "Bowhunter."
The magazine explains that the GOP vice presidential nominee appears to have picked the outdoorsy moniker because he's something of an aficionado of hunting deer and other animals:
Ryan is also the cover model for next month's Deer and Deer Hunting magazine. He told the publication's editor: "Studying the strategy, preparing food plots, the strategy of where a dominant buck is living or will be moving and then being in position to get a shot, that's really exciting."
Combine Ryan's new code name with the three we already knewObama's "Renegade," Biden's "Celtic" and Romney's "Javelin"and this 2012 showdown sounds kind of like an old-school pro wrestling tag-team match. (Tuesday, Tuesday, Tuesday! It's Renegade and Celtic vs. Javelin and the Bowhunter!)

(14,400 posts)in other words baiting the deer. What kind of douchenozzle baits animals and then still claims to be a "sportsman". Shit, if you want to do that just trap the fucking thing in a net or corral and then have a slaughterhouse take care of the killin' and packin'.
I have no problem with hunting but these fucking baiters are nothing short of lazy assholes are barely a notch above the pricks that shoot out of car windows.

As in, "Cherry tree? I haven't been around cherry trees all day. Cherry trees are wonderful and I would never chop one down. Nope, not me."

(39,961 posts)posed for that picture after one of his buddies shot the deer and took credit for it. He can't even "remember" how long his marathon time is, so I wouldn't be surprised if he doesn't remember who actually shot the deer.
