This whole thing was cool just for the comedy it's produced.

Cheney fucked up, but what the hell is a 78 year old man out hunting anyway?
I'm just glad he didn't shoot a Mexican.

They were "hunting". I don't really call it hunting when you stand ten feet away from a cage and then you shoot at the birds they release. My Dad did this with an executive from another company once and I made fun of him unmercifully for the longest time.

something about this whole story just sounds fishy. it makes much more sense that Cheney had to deliver a personal message in a very personal way. but thats just how my conspiracy starved mind works I guess. plus Ive seen brotherhood of the bell too many times to dismiss that as an option, especially with something like that.
imagine cheney telling you he was going to shoot you in the face, then admit it to all the media outlets and he woul still be untouchable...

Cheney didn't even have the proper $7.00 stamp on his license for the qual hunt. I heard the DNR is fining him $7.00 because of this. Why would anyone buy the $7.00 stamp if the fine amount is the same as the stamp, IF you get caught without it!?? I'm sure if this were you or me, we would loose hunting privledges, possibly shotgun or more!

and its not like they only shot a couple of birds. thats at least 45 per person. so at least 90-100 birds were killed by 2 people that didnt even have permits.
its safe to assume they were not planning on eating any of their spoils, seeing how they probably only eat baby flesh and all..

Any of you catch the press conferences? If I were Scott McClellan I'd want to kick Cheney in his face.

Nah, it was a really obscure license that people always manage not to pay for. Cheney and the other "hunters" had their basic license but not the one needed in this case. I was talking to a friend that hunts often and I guess it a hunter gets caught without it, they just get fined the amount of the license cost.

I am a strong Republican and the explanation by the White House media guy for the delay of the information was pretty fucking sketchy. I'm a rep but I do speak up when I think there is shady shit and that whole thing was shady as hell. It took 20 hours for the word to get out. You think within the first 30 min the white knew EXACTLY what happen. I mean if I shot someone my girlfriend and family would know within an hour at the most.

I think they were trying to come up with the perfect way to hand the story to the press so things would go as smoothly as possible.

I think Cheney was drunk.
This thread would be so much more entertaining if the title/subject were reversed to "Man Shoots Cheney's Dick".

I agree with that Redstorm but waiting posed a problem all in it self and makes them look like their hiding something.

I'll bet that Fox News will have flattering looking and slow-motion Cheney montages leading up to his appearance.
