Funny thing is...

There has been a lot of talk from the right wingers complaining about how much press Cheney has been getting for shooting some one. Here are some of my random thoughts on this;

Your right. The press should be much more concerned with the fact that Scooter just told the grand jury that his superiors authorized him to give secret information to reporters as part of the Bush administration's defense of intelligence used to justify invading Iraq. I wonder who the superior for "a top aide to Vice President Dick Cheney" is.

Or they could talk about A former CIA official who coordinated U.S. intelligence on the Middle East during the Iraq invasion accused the White House of misusing prewar intelligence to justify its case for war. Although it says the White House I heard he is blaming Cheney.

As someone (I think it was Bill Maher) said, "Cheney shooting a guy was the third worst thing to happen to him last week." (see first two points)

While there is no proof that he was drunk or that this was anything more than a laps in basic hunter safety, the way they dealt with the situation left the door open to all kinds of speculation. If this was just an honest accident the VP created this story with his secrecy.

THE VICE PRESIDENT OF THE UNTIED STATES SHOT A MAN!!! That just doesn't happen every day. Of course there is going to be a ton of coverage.

The VP shooting someone is easy and fun to write about. (thankfully he didn't die then it wouldn't of been so fun)

All these Fox News people that are saying "Where is the concern for Cheney? He went through a traumatic experience." Well maybe Mr. 5 deferments now has a slight taste of what a soldier goes through.
