Guns don't shoot people--Dick Cheney shoots people!

"Additional details continued to come in overnight" ??? How are they communicating ? By carrier pigeon ?

The good news is...they've finally found the Weapon of Mass Destruction! It's Cheney!

Special treatment for VIPs?!

Let's get this straight. A car-load of fat-cat politicians, lobbyists and lawyers are driving along a back country road when they flush a covey of quail. The driver slams on the brakes, and they all jump out of the vehicle with shotgun barrels blazing. Then, when the shooting stops the brave, fearless hunters start picking up the dead and the wounded birds. Only problem is -- one of the wounded is a very big turkey, Texas attorney and lobbyist, Harry Whittington. (Now anybody that bags a lawyer deserves a medal, in my humble opinion; but that's another story...)

The truth of the matter is that hunting from a moving vehicle is against the law. Additionally, our brave hunters, VP Cheney, et al, had no license to hunt quail -- another violation!

His punishment? The poor, mistreated criminal had to go back into town and pay the measley $7.00 quail license fee. Now, how's that for law enforcement? Special treatment? Well, you be the judge!

In the mean time, while these bad-assed hunters are satifying their filthy blood lust, our brave young men and women are dying in Iraq and Afghanistan while hunting the real prey -- TERRORISTS -- to preserve the rights of law breaking thugs like VP Dick Cheney, et al!

My hope is that all these bastards rot in hell; but, then again, hell is too good for the likes of these hypocrites!

Cheney shot Witting purposefully or because he was impaired. Cheney had to swing his gun around to his right or left greater than 90 degrees to shoot someone coming up behind him. So the question become "Why?". Think of this, Armstrong doesn't report the problem for hours, literally; lots of mouth wash and gallons of coffee later she leaks the information, and hours after that the Fuzz arrives. Or, alternatively, Cheney's deep in a DepCon 10 video in his head and the enemy came from behind and he blew the enemy away. I wonder what that old lawyer said that got Cheney's goat and he almost (maybe will have) committed murder?

Don't most Hunters wear hearing protection Anyway? Cheney is wearing a Headset in the photos they show on the news,Blaming the Victim because he did not communicate Verbaly is Crazy! That's why they wear those Bright Orange suits.

I was waiting for one of those press people to get up and punch that scott meclelan smart ass piece of crap, in the face, I personally could not have resisted.

"Shot through the heart -
And you're to blame. . . .
You give love -
A bad name. . . ."

Johnny Walker and guns don't mix. 21 Hours before talking to the Deputy Sheriff allows alcohol do be flushed out of system.

Either that or heart medication side effect causes one to become paranoid -

We'll never know the truth as usual.

I guess telling Pat Leahy to go fuck himself on the floor of the Senate, wasn't enough for Dick. At least when Bill Clinton shot someone, all it did was leave a stain on a dress.

Cheney has a history of DWI's. Why isn't anyone in the press making a serious effort to look into the possibility that Cheney was probably impaired by alcohol...this concept is particularly supported by the location of the gunshot wounds and the fact that Whittington was behind him and Cheney had to turn around to shoot him...was it deliberate or was Cheney simply impaired??...either way, he should step down from the Vice Presidency. He's a disgrace to the country and truly nothing more than a corporate thug. Years ago (1970's) he was known to other corporate chieftans as "Mr. Fixit" - the guy who got it done...where others "feared to tread" - he was always the fellow who did the dirty work. And he still is....

Maybe the next orange suit he wears, will be in a federal prison.

I suspect that shooting crippled little living decoys just isn't sporting enough. It must frustrate the mighty hunter instincts in great warriors.

While I certainly don't think the shooting was deliberate...it was just more like impatient frustration.

If Ms. Armstrong had been a really savvy Rep. Lobbyist she would have provided Democrats and reporters for our poor VP to aim at...and he wouldn't have had to shoot a personal friend.

It's all her fault!

Most reports blame the victim, the eternal tactic Bushies keep getting away with to avoid taking any responsibility for their actions.

Remember in the movie "The Shooting Party" a British aristocrat manages to shoot a young man who is their beater with buckshot, killing him. And it's passed off as nothing. The movie indicts the complete moral bankruptcy of the whole upper class system.

Cheney and his tribe live in a fantasy world trying to live out a similar system of lost nobility. He and his cohorts try to recreate a time when an aristocracy lived a privileged life of ease, unearned wealth,and entitlement. And all this was supported by the disempowered masses (that's us, folks, in the USA). It died in England with WWI and this bloody sport of the supposedly divinely ordained 'elect' needs to die here.

I wonder if this was an accident and if it was,is Cheney that blind? Why the secret? Because Cheney thinks is accountable to no one, nt even his "boss" the president. Yeah right, Did Bush and Cheney think this would just disappear, like everything else thay have?

If you ask me, the wrong fat cat got shot...

I was thinking along the same lines as Cindy... do people remember who Whittington is? Not that it wasn't an accident, just saying...

Deadeye dick is a Nazi thug, and a disgrace to the rest of us Americans. Let's put him back out there, dress up Chimpy and Rice, and holler "Quail!!"

Hey, can anyone convince Bush and Cheney to go hunting together anytime soon? Pleeeeeeeeezzzeee!!!!

Hey, can anyone convince Bush and Cheney to go hunting together anytime soon? Pleeeeeeeeezzzeee!!!!

The DELAY (no pun intended :) that prevented
local law enforcement/fish & game officers from
interviewing Cheney after the shootingreeks of a cover up.

Obviously panic set in with Cheney and his handlers trying to figure out a way out this. Have the Secret Service flash their badges and say "NO ACCESS" until Dick the Drunk sobers up and
can talk to the law. That at the very least.

The only way this will come out is if one
of the Secret Service boys is brave enough to testify that the Veep was drunk.
Or if Whittington dies, but for his sake, let's hope that isn't in the cards

just how much are the people of this country going to take before something is done i'm worried that soon we won't have a country left

in this day and age of real time reporting and blackberries, it is totally preposterous that it would take almost 24 hours to disseminate this very newsworthy information. quail hunting (if you can call it that) is best accomplished much earlier in the day. to embark on their "expedition" at 4pm when sunset is at 6:19pm is nonsensical. what could the possibly have been doing all day previous to their "great hunt"? does jack daniels ring a bell? to believe that those elite fat cats didn't have a snootful of liquor in them at that time of day is to believe the moon is made of green cheese!!

To add a pithy note amongst the others, . . . "If it quacks like a duck, it must be a duck!" Vice President Cheney forgot to scream out to his fellow hunter, . . . "Duck, or I'll shoot ya!" (LOL)

White House spokesman, Scott McClellan stated in a paraphase, . . . 'The White House wants to return their attention back to the priorities of the American people'. If this is being relayed in good faith, then please advise the White House staff members to stop aiming and shooting Americans down one by one, . . . either by Spirit or by force!

Chenye's people were hoping this would Disappear, Like all those Billions of dollers in Iraq.

For a administration saying they were going to restore integrity to the White House they have certainly NOT lived up to those words.

Yet the Democrats are pretty much voiceless in the last couple of weeks. We need to dump Dean and Reid and bring in fresh voices. Reid looks like a mean old man and Dean has the reputation of being a temper tantrum egomaniac.

The Democrats must get their house in order fast.

So now we are supposed to feel sympathy for Cheney? What about the poor suckers who have suffered as a result of the Bush/Cheney debacle in Iraq?
Or the victims of Katrina?
Or for those suffering effects of white phospherous?
Or for those suffering effects of depleted uranium?
Wouldn't some sympathy be more appropriate if it was felt for the thousands of returned servicemen and women who are suffering physical and emotional trauma as a direct result of Bush/Cheney actions?
Or for those who have died for a "Noble Cause"?
A while back I suggested that maybe Cheney and Rumsfeld should be locked up together over extraordinary renditions and torture, Now I think it would be better if they all went along on a hunting expedition.

Ah yes, . . . a hunting expedition with the blind leading the blind! Who can tell what the results would be at the end of their day? Whoops, . . . pardon, . . . no one will tell anything, because they'll all be speckled with pellets from gunfire! Not from each other, but by those hiding behind the "Bushes"!!!

If we all wait till they get all there rip off schemes in place were all going to be broke I think its time to send a message we should get as many people together an circle the White House an stay there an demand all them be removed and voted out impeached and pensions revoked make them go back to the places they came from an start all over like we had to do when they closed many of our factories an other businesses they sent to China.

Is Bush an alcoholic who starts drinking at sundown until he passes out and is put to bed? Nothing ever happens for him between 6 and 9pm.

Presumably, Wittington was rushed to a hospital immediately after being shot. Perhaps someone can explain how someone can be admitted to a hospital with a severe shotgun wound and the cops aren't immediately called? Obstruction of justice applies to all who have a duty to report and fail to do so; D.C., Secret Service, hospital, other members of the party, etc.

When I watched the press conference and Scottie said information was coming in through the night, I reasoned that the victim was in such a shape that they did not know if he would survive. I believe that they knew if they were going to have that catastrophe on their hands they would want to be careful what would be released to the press and when.
Why the release to a local press by a private citizen the following morning is dumbfounding to me. I just read that Cheney in a Fox interview said he stands by that decision. Gee isn't that typical of other major decisions of this Administration, incompetant and/or criminal.

Who knows if there was any foul play in the mist, . . . What man goes hunting these days without a drinking companion? Did anyone question if drugs or alcohol was a factor? The obvious tells the public, . . . If this shooting happened to someone who had no title of "special privileges," there would have been an immediate and thorough investigation.

In response to Daryl, . . . "ABSOLUTELY!" We should ALL march and demand the firing of each staff member that has committed perjury against the American Constitution. By the standing of the "Quarranto Law," "the people" are given the opportunity to make a request for an open and full investigation through the office of the United States Attorney General's office or through "Special Council."

The associations of the American government are nothing more than clones of each other. They each share the responsibility and accountability of acting in gross negligence and professional malfeasance. They as civil officers, have repeatedly committed the criminal offense of: Endangering the welfare of a child. [Children]. The list of civil and criminal offenses that our local, state, and federal government executives and their administrators have committed against "the public," are countless and shameful!!!

ssssshhhhhhhhh I'm hunting wabit

The whole incident is a tornado in an outhouse. It is just a lot of stink about something that was over in an instant and had no real effect on anyone that wasn't there. Get a life!

Dave

Well Dave, in or outside of an outhouse, a tornado has the ability to run a muck, . . .

Dave, we challenge you to tell Whittington and his loved ones that it was all over in an instant, and that it had no effect on anyone that wasn't there!
For you to write: "The whole incident is a tornado in an outhouse. It is just a lot of stink about something that was over in an instant and had no real effect on anyone that wasn't there. Get a life!"

You need to get a heart! Maybe then you will recognize how close to death Whittington came to experiencing. We wonder how you would feel at the age of 78 having pellet fire lodged into your body.

And so, V.P. Cheney defends himself by saying, . . . He "wanted to be sure the first reports were correct," before announcing the shooting to the press. We could guarantee, . . . if there was an explosion that took place in Corpus Christi, Texas, that may have led to injury and/or fatality, there would have been an immediate national "NEWSFLASH" posted.

So why couldn't there be a brief "NEWSFLASH" that read something like this, . . . V.P. Cheney shot and wounded, Mr. Harry Whittington while hunting in Corpus Christi, Texas. Mr. Whittington's health condition is yet unknown. Further details will be given when information becomes available.

Why all the mystery? Why was there such a long delay in reporting what happened?

V.P. Cheney stated, . . . He will feel relieved when Mr. Whittington returns home.

For information, . . . Someone returning home from the hospital does not provide validation of someone returning to one's restored health.

We wonder if there will be an investigation and/or any criminal charges filed against V.P. Cheney. Will there be any finacial compensation given to the Whittington family? If so, who's out of pocket expense will it be deleted from? Cheney or the taxpayers?

Oh what a web we weave when we shoot with our eyes closed and wing our way out of trouble, . . .

'Cheneys got a gun
Cheneys got a gun.

the whole world's come undone.
'Cause Cheneys got a gun..."

Think about it, people.
It's a no-brainer.

Haven't had time to read the entire article yet but what a PERFECT lead-in. Loved it, thanks!

Here we go, . . . We'll announce what others dare not to, . . .

BASED ON THE FACT FINDINGS, YOU AND YOUR ADMINISTRATION HAVE COMMITTED TREASON AGAINST HUMANITY. THEREBY, PRESIDENT BUSH, YOU AND YOUR ADMINISTRATION ARE HEREBY RELEASED OF OFFICIAL DUTIES AS OF IMMEDIATELY, FEBRUARY 16, 2006.

SIGNED, THE REAL AMERICAN SOCIETY

WHY DID IT TAKE SO LONG FOR CHENEY TO REPORT HIS SHOOTING OF WHITTINGTON? PERHAPS CHENEY NEEDED TO GET "A STORY" TOGETHER.

But yet, Cheney still contradicts himself. He first tells Britt Hume on Faux 5 that he knew Whittington for about 30 years and he is a "good friend." Then when Britt Hume's gives question to Cheney, is Whittington a close friend, or friendly acquaintance, Cheney answers, "No, an acquaintance." DA! Which way is the wind flying this bird turd today?

In answer to Britt Hume's question, . . . "Mr. Vice President, how is Mr. Whittington?" "Well, the good news is he's doing very well today. I talked to him yesterday after they discovered the heart problem, but it appears now to have been pretty well resolved and the reporting today is very good."

Cheney stated this comment on 2/15/06, when doctors already released information to the public stating there is a pellet yet remaining in Whittington's heart that they are not removing. We question, . . . Does this sound as though the heart problem has been "pretty well resolved," as V.P. Cheney describes it?

Britt Hume questioned Cheney, . . . "What was he wearing?" "He was dressed in orange, he was dressed properly, but he was also . . . There was a little bit of a gully there, so he was down a little ways before land level, although I could see the upper part of his body when . . . I didn't see it at the time I shot, until after I'd fired. And the sun was directly behind him — that affected the vision, too, I'm sure."

We question, . . . When someone gets shot, don't they usually in an immediate formation, fall or tip? If so, how could Cheney clearly see Whittington "after shooting him, but not before shooting him?" If the sun affected Cheney's shooting, then why did Cheney shoot? An experienced hunter of any nature would first look to get a clear shot of the target before pulling the trigger. NONE of Cheney's explanation derives to make any sense. And why is Cheney giving his description of the shooting to Britt Hume and not to the detectives who should be investigating all witnesses and the true events of the shooting?

"But he was also" what V.P. Cheney? Oh don't bother answering. The truth won't be given away.

In regards to the remaining interview with Britt Hume and V.P. Dick Cheney, we'll leave the reading to the Bush administration. They enjoy fairytales.

FOR THE LOVE OF MY COUNTRY I DEMAND A REVOLT AGAINST SUCH CAESARISM AS THIS!!!

Hello,

Re: Your above para. about Cheney which starts...
'No doubt you are as sick'
That simple article really is veryfunny.

Why on earth is it so hard to admit when one has an accident ? After all, it was not criminal. I assume this results from being so accustomed to lying a nd deceitful nes .

Could I suggest that he takes Bush sen. G. Bush and certain others of yours plus Blair and Howard when he next goes a shootin !!

Sometime , would you care to detail in your articles the rise in fortunes and ownership, etc . of Haliburton. The deals that achieved it's rise .

Forget the comments of our leaders Blair and Howard. Why do you think that more and more of we, your long time friends, are turning against the current U S. Why do we now see your flag as a symble of evil. Why are we surprised the Muslims and many other world peoples don't wave U S flags bearing swastikas?
Which country's foreign policy has directly and indirectly caused the killing of over 2 million human beings around the world since 1945 ?

Please don't reply for my writing 'politically' would cause serious family strife in our home I'll continue to read your couragious and enlightening articles.

I'm a patriotic English ex serviceman ,currently in Australia.

Peace be with you,

To John French and my fellow Americans:

I for one in humility, will stand up and mourn the words, . . . "We are truly and most sincerely sorry for what many ill-minded individuals and their commanding officers have formed to create against your families, your homes, your place of worship, your health, your economy, your schools, your place of business, your playgrounds, your peace of mind, your love for life, your hope and your dreams, your memories, and most of all,. . . We are in deep remorse for what has been created against your freedom to love and to be loved.

I for one know what it is to be robbed of all of these precious gifts, . . . I for one know what it is to yet remain in SPIRIT, regardless of the vile action given by others. For I know all that has been robbed from the innocent, shall be reimbursed beyond an overwhelming amount. Just as I also know, . . . those who tempt to oppress against "LIFE BEING," will experience their own actions. It is just a matter of "Time Speaking." And So Be It.

Peace Be With You All-
