Cheney shoots someone (I'm not kidding)

I think there's a difference between not reporting it (not a coverup)
than hiding the fact (cover up).

If one can believe what one hears on the tv news, i heard one report
yesterday where it said the guy who was shot came up behind the VP and
didn't let him know he was there, essentially assigning blame to the
victim. (and this wasn't Fox either)

Cheney obviously screwed up, he had the gun, took the shot and didn't
ensure there was no one in the path. Send him back to a basic hunter
safety class but I'm not sure I would issue a press release saying I
did something stupid either.

What concerns me more than the lack of an announcement, is at least one
major newspaper is quoting an animal hack calling hunting wrong. I
fear the conversation will mover more this way than the VP forgetting
the basic safety rules of hunting.


Whether its deflected by some PETA activist, or some other avenue, I think
its inevitable that pretty much nothing will come of it. I am absolutely
astounded by the ability of both Bush and Cheney to pretty much do whatever
they want and to get away with it, even shooting someone in the face. God,
the list of things they do with impunity is just getting so damn long...

The only thing that I see on the horizon from this is exposure of the
details of 'Formaldehydegate' and historic evidence of Bush's 'Old Boys
Club' style of management.
