We find out that Subpoena-Me Karl is relaxing with a few of his Fox Friends by killing living things (no offense to hunters, but it's just not my thing). Via Think Progress:

@tomatcc: “ALL CLEAR!” Dick’s in Wyoming. 8:45 AM yesterday

@KarlRove: You’re correct—unfortunately Cheney’s not here. But, I look forward to my next hunt with him. #TCOT #SGP 9:54 AM yesterday

Fox News’s Chris Wallace and the Weekly Standard’s Fred Barnes accompanied Rove, who also posted a “Twitpic” of Barnes with shotgun in one hand and dead bird in the other. Rove said Barnes hit “two out of a covey.”

"Twitpic". Perfect.

Humane Society breaks tradition, endorses

The animal lovers' group goes with Obama, and seem to have been particularly turned off by Palin.

The choice for animals is especially clear now that Palin is in the mix. If Palin is put in a position to succeed McCain, it could mean rolling back decades of progress on animal issues.
