Darth Cheney Speaks!

Gads, it would just be too easy to smack on Dead Eye Dick these days, eh?  After all, what kind of a person drives around in some gas-guzzling SUV through the middle of the brush only to step outside and blow away a few small birds when he gets a radio signal from a man on horseback?  It's not even close to sporting...

Funny how Cheney kept repeating in his puff-piece interview with Bush-a-maton Brit Hume that he delayed reporting the matter because he was concerned about the "accuracy" of his report.  I wish that he and his cohorts had applied as much circumspection before they sent our young men and women off to kill Iraqis.  Really, though, it's just a pathetic excuse for what increasingly appears to be negligent, if not drunken, behavior.  He admitted having "a beer" at lunch.  It's easy to see that this could have been many more than one, especially since he refused to meet with the sheriff's deputies until after any alcohol would have passed through his system.

My favorite part of the interview, however, is when he tries to make himself appear sympathetic by saying that they cancelled Sunday's hunt.  It's also interesting to note that he characterizes Whittington as an "acquaintance" at the beginning of the interview, but as "my friend" during his mea culpa.  I guess they are "friends" only so long as he can help Cheney appear sympathetic...

What a gracious gesture!

I don't know about you, but I sure feel much safer knowing that Dead Eye Dick has his hands on as many munitions as he can handle, safely or not!
