BubberMiley Posted February 14, 2006 Report Share Posted February 14, 2006 I'm just wondering if the Bush administration will wait until after Harry Whittington is released from the hospital before they prop him up to say "It was totally my fault! The Vice-President shouldn't have had to look where he was shooting." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

newbie Posted February 14, 2006 Report Share Posted February 14, 2006 I'm not a hunter but is it unreasonable to assume that when you're in a hunting party you should know where EVERYONE is in relation to oneself? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shady Posted February 14, 2006 Report Share Posted February 14, 2006 I'd rather hunt with Dick Cheney than ride with Ted Kennedy It's funny cause it's soooo true. At least Cheney will get you medical help. Kennedy just leaves you for dead, and then tries to cover it up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shakeyhands Posted February 14, 2006 Report Share Posted February 14, 2006 there is something very odd about how it was all reported... why did they fail to allow Cheney to be interviewed until the next day? Why when a Sheriffs Deputy showed to interview him that night was he turned away by the Secret Service? I gotta think ol' Dick was a drinkin' or sump'in. Why else would they delay access to him? He really ought to be charged with Careless Use or something... Just goes to show how above the Law the Executive Branch feels they are.

Shakeyhands Posted February 14, 2006 Report Share Posted February 14, 2006 Bwaaaahahaha... Will Cheney be charged with Manslaughter if the old guy bites???? http://www.cnn.com/2006/POLITICS/02/14/cheney/index.html The fellow hunter who was shot and wounded by Vice President Dick Cheney has suffered a "minor heart attack" after a piece of birdshot migrated to his heart, a hospital spokesman said Tuesday.

geoffrey Posted February 15, 2006 Report Share Posted February 15, 2006 I hate to pull the conspiracy card, but I have little doubt that there was a little bit of trigger-happy craziness here, maybe alcohol induced. From the reports I've seen/read, they got out of the car to shoot. Like step out and blast these quails. Then the guy heads off to pick up one he shot and Cheney shoots him again in the face. Hitting someone at 30 metres with a small shotgun right in the face/chest is almost impossible unless you saw him there. Is it too hard to believe that a few beers were had and some judgement was clouded? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hitting someone at 30 metres with a small shotgun right in the face/chest is almost impossible unless you saw him there. Is it too hard to believe that a few beers were had and some judgement was clouded? That's interesting: an article on MSNBC quoted Cheney's spokesperson as saying there may have been "a few beers around" (that reference was subsequently yanked form the article). Also, we know Cheney didn't talk to local law enforcement for almost 24 hours (needed time to sober up?) Also, alcohol is part of the hunting culture (especially for rich dudes playing at being good ol' boys). It's certainly a reasonable path to go down (alcohol would also explain many other of this administration's decisions). Certainly, the White House's treatment of the incident hasn't given the impression thay've nothing to hide. Or maybe they are just so obsessed with secrecy that even something as relatively innocuous as this has to be covered up (after blaming the victim, of course).

Shady Posted February 16, 2006 Report Share Posted February 16, 2006 But hes not dead is he? No he isn't, which is exactly why I stated "the prospect of someone dying". Read before you post. and the Bin ladan comment is supposed to be funny, because well your Heads of State cant hunt down a terrorist but they can hunt down a 78 year old man. its pretty funny right? Some just do not understand certain types of humour. What does Bin Laden have to do with it? Maybe nothing, maybe everything. The reason Bin Laden was mentioned is that he finds it funny that they cannot hunt and kill the master mind behind a ... forget it .. nevermind.. move along Ok. I'd like to take this opportunity to educate some of you. Here's a newsflash. Dick Cheney isn't in the mountains of Afghanistan searching for Osama Bin Laden. President Bush isn't in the mountains of Afghanistan searching for Osama Bin Laden. Who is you may ask yourself? Brave men and women of the American military, and Special Ops. So when you refer to "they" haven't been able to catch Bin Laden but "they" can hunt down a 78 year old man, it makes absolutely no sense. If you can't believe that the Special Operations soldiers in Afghanistan haven't been able to capture of kill Osama Bin Laden yet, and that it's an easy enough job that should have been completed by now, maybe you should pick up a gun and try it yourself. If not, shut the fuck up, and stop disparaging the brave people (who don't include policitians) that are trying to accomplish that goal.

no1important Posted February 16, 2006 Report Share Posted February 16, 2006 Personally I believe there is more to this than we are being told. I also do not believe a 28 gauge at 30 yards would do that much damage either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
