Was Cheney drinking before he capped the lawyer?

[Keseys Ghost]

Seems relevant at this point...

1. We'll never know

No chance he'd ever submit to a breathalizer. Won't happen.Anyone else probably would, but since Cheney is fighting the war on terror we don't want to inconvenience him with details.

2. I'd say no.

but that's only because he's probably been told he'd drop over dead if he drinks.

10. You've got a point... BUT

Cheney DID have a bad attack of gout a couple weeks ago. Bad enough that he had to appear in public with a slipper on one foot.

Hmmm....... I bet he still sneaks a few when Lynne's not looking.

3. Cheney probably drinks before anything

And he's so damn old and feeble at this point, most Americans (given the state of health care for the general populace) would have been dead long ago with the kind of medical problems he has. How the hell have they propped him up for so long?

5. Be careful grouping all senior citizens with Cheney you, you --- youngster

:hi:

7. Don't worry

I'd never group anyone I like with Cheney. Maybe some of the stuff I scoop out of my cat's litterbox, but not people I like. Or hell, not even most of the people I *don't* like.

12. You know what's pathetic? He's only 65.

He looks like he's 80 and acts like he's 12.

[jody]

4. Good question. If he was drinking it could affect the type of negligence,

e.g. criminal negligence, gross negligence, etc.

6. that may explain the 3-hour delay in bringing his victime to the

hospital... enough time for the fat f*ck to sober up.

[fiveleafclover]

8. Good point

Hadn't thought of that.

[Keseys Ghost]

9. BINGO!

That was the first thought to leap @ me.

17. 3-hours!!! That's a lot of loss of blood, and pain...and shock setting in

"Compassionate" Conservatives. Gotta love 'em!

11. and was he hunting on a RESIDENT License? illegal vp if so

This was asked in another thread. They made a point of ststing that he did have a valid license. But was it a RESIDENT license? If it is a Texas resident license he is illegally the vp, because the president and vice-president can't be from the state. Or he committed an offense by claiming residency to a get a lower cost resident license. We need to ask this and find out !! You can bet they would look to this angle if it was us.

13. Is that why they waited twenty-four hours to comment?

Sober the old boy up?

14. How appropriate...

that with the timing of the midterms, we now hear news stories about republicans shooting members of thier own party.

Too little, too late...

15. Do taxpayers pay for his ambulance standing by as he hunts?

Good thing for the victim, but are taxpayers footing Cheney's bill for shooting someone?

[NVMojo]

16. I'd say yes. Why else would someone spin around and instantly

shoot a man taller then him in the freaking face unless his senses were impaired by alcohol. Those birds posed no imminent threat to his worthless, hateful life.

[Jeffersons Ghost]

18. what irks me is that the victim gets blamed

After going without being admitted to the emergency room for hours, it's the rich lawyers fault that he was shot in the face. In bird hunting, one never shoots at low angles because it kills fellow hunters and bird-dogs. It's the most important rule of that particular hunt.

BTW Keseys Ghost,welcome to DU... Are you in the United International Ghost Workers Union? I'm in local No. 13 and we're tired of cartoons that portray ghosts wearing chains like slaves.
