Who shot who or why did it happened is totally irrelevant. Cheney shot his friend who later suffered a mild heart attack because a pellet got into the heart. Again, irrelevant here.
The problem is that Cheney could not even come clean - be up front and honest. That still would not be a problem if this White House had not been caught lying so many times previously. So many disasters that the White House mishandled. So many times that a White House response is stonewall silence or outright deception. A simple response would have been 'total apologies to a shot lawyer and a whole hearted admission that I made a mistake'. That is what an honest man would do. And that is the only reason for this controversy. We are really asking whether Cheney is an honest man - or one whose modem-operandi is to lie or deceive whenever possible. What could have been nothing more than a simple hunting accident has proven to be just as deceitful as Kennedy at Chappaquiddick. But then we are talking about politicians whose purpose in life is to lie – because that is what we want them to do. We want them to be politically correct – only appear to be honest. The controversy is that Cheney does not even appear to be honest – and is so arrogent as to not care what we think. A 'screw America again' attitude because 'I am Dick Cheney and don't care what Americans think'. That attitude is why he deserves to replace Mohammed. Where are bad Danish comics when we need them. |

One of the Starr Report footnotes referenced "anal - oral" contact. Never said who's anal to who's oral. Being democraps, probably both.

I heard somewhere that the guy was first taken to a medical center in a small town- not any closer to the accident site, rather than Corpus. Why was that?
And there is the speculation about drinking a beer or beers or whatever. But really, who cares? Why would info control, info manipulation, secrecy, responsibility dodging, spinnnnnnnnn be any news? meanwhile War management, Crisis management, Cronyism, Corruption, Crime...lots of White House issues to sink your teeth into. |

The game law violated is probably the $7 stamp they were missing on their hunting licenses.

I just adore the fact that the shooting took place on the ranch belonging to a former Halliburten Exec. Talk about keeping it "all in the family!"
The Italians make shot guns? Oh, yeah, guess they would with the mafia and all. Whatever happened to going out on public land with your blue tick coon hound and a Remington, a valid hunting licence, and a hunter's safety course under your belt? I guess only rednecks do that. Toby Keith, anyone? ![]() |

OK, it was from Happy Monkey's link He may not be doing too well Katharine Armstrong's mother, Anne Armstrong, served on the board of directors of Halliburton, the oil field service company Cheney ran before becoming vice president. She also served as U.S. ambassador to Britain in the Ford administration. Last edited by marichiko; 02-17-2006 at 02:15 AM. |

Yeah, Texas has a lot of private hunting property, I guess. Blue ticks can be used for other things besides coons, tho. I know of some one who uses them to hunt cougars, for example.
Anyhow, my point was more about how Cheney got to skate on this one. What do you think would have happened to Joe Sixpack if he didn't have the valid stamp on his licence and shot his buddy after having a brew or two? |
