Lots of posters today urging people to back off the Cheney shooting story.

No, I don't think so.

It's an example of Republican hubris and arrogance, and very possibly criminal negligence.

I see no need to back off this story. If the table were turned, no one on the other side would be urging others to back off.

Just my two cents worth.

1. I concur, and already put in my two cents

3. I don't think so either. And if he was drinking, that should

come out.

Cheney shooting tame birds for fun while Americans die in Iraq, it should be shouted from the rooftops.

4. How often do we get gifts like this?

I think we should have fun with it.....it's not the usual depressing, hopeless stuff. I love it!

5. Hell, I'm just getting warmed up on this story...

... I haven't even started quoting from The Great Gatsby yet. :P

6. Every time these freaks do something...

There is secrecy, coverup and questions! Fuck Dick Cheney! We want answers!

7. just kicked and recomended..........

9. We should pressure the Corporate Media to get a statement

from Whittington's present Attending Physicians NOT the Hospital Administration Officer cronies who can mince words all too well.

When is Whittington due to be released for Intensive Care. Remaining in Intensive Care indicates that this man's condition is FAR FROM STABLE.

We want answers.

8. Just diverting attention

All of this Cheney shooting crap is just diverting attention from the more important things that need attention. This will go absolutely nowhere.

10. Thanks for the illustration.

Did everyone pay attention?

[ShortnFiery]

12. Then just kindly ignore our hubris, because, as Brownie says,

It's BALLS TO THE WALL!!!

[Lerkfish]

13. where does it need to "go"? Its a self-contained act of negligence at best

that's plenty.

[MrBenchley]

11. Agreed....

The assministration's line has been "Just trust us"...but Deadheart Dick blasted a big hole in THAT.

[dogday]

14. I mean Damn the VP of The USA shoots someone in the head!

it is news and it is getting better and better as time goes by and people wonder why they waited too long to report the event. Was the Dick drunk or what?

[pitohui]

15. this story is red meat

no way i'm backing off something this tasty

we all know these old fools were drunk as skunks, they won't do the time, they might as well suffer the slings and arrows of outrageous late night comics
