    Lots of people ride in cars -- doesn't mean they'd let Ted Kennedy drive 'em

    Whatever. Hunting with [censored] Cheney, riding in a car with Punkinhead,
    going to Iraq with insufficient body armor, it's all fatal!

    Cheney needs to be kept away from all weapons. He obviously doesn't know a
    weapon when he sees one and he doesn't know how to safely use one either.

    Ignore the fact that the "victim" stood up downrange from a hunting blind?
    Brilliant.

    Well, apparently that's not what happened. He was walking up from
    behind Cheney who tracked a bird 180 degrees before firing. It was an
    incredibly stupid mistake on Cheney's part. To use your terminology,
    Cheney rotated 180 degrees from "downrange from his hunting blind" and
    fired. They weren't in a blind, but they were "hunting" in a direction,
    and Cheney turned around and fired back in the direction from which he
    just came.

    The stupidity is just stunning. Almost as stunning is how Cheney's crew
    are trying to pass the blame. I almost hope he was drunk, because
    that's the only way that I can understand such a stupid, gd, idiotic
    lapse.

    Imagine what would have happened if Al Gore had shot someone this
    stupidly on a hunting trip back in the 90s.

    They were shooting farm-raised quail, BTW, which is not really hunting,
    it's just the wanton slaughter of small animals.

    (I have no problems with hunting. Eat what you kill, kill only what you
    will eat. Better karma than letting someone do it for you in a
    slaughterhouse.)

    Instead in the 00s (like, today) he goes to Saudi Arabia and tells lies

    And I think that [censored] Cheney is the Vice President of the United States

    Have there ever been any non-stupid hunting accidents?

    Reminds me of the joke about the two
    [Swedish/Polish/Italian/Democrat/Republican/take-your-pick) guys out
    hunting. They get lost, and wander around for few hours. One guy says,
    "I think if you get lost in the woods, you are supposed to shoot up
    into the air and someone will come and find you." So they shoot up into
    the air, and wait. Nothing happens. An hour later they try again. No
    luck. After several hours of trying, the other guys says, "I hope
    someone rescues us soon, because we are almost out of arrows!"

    Have you ever seen W, the Head [censored], Rummy, Condasleeeza or any other
    Bushie take responsibility for any kind of error, mistake or
    wrongdoing? From the non-existant WMD in Iraq, to running down a bobby
    on a bicycle, to the Katrina fiasco, to this, they will _never_ admit
    error.

    Public characters always look bad when they try to explain a dumb
    situation. Remember when Kerry blamed the secret service guy (who was
    there to take a bullet for him!) for causing him to fall on his snow
    board?

    Condasleeeza? Nice. I guess you'd rather she fit your idea of what
    black people are supposed to be. If she "talked the talk" you'd be
    begging for her to be Time's person of the year, going on about how she
    overcame adversity growing up in segregated Alabama, and had worked her
    way up to the position number 3 in the US government. Bla, bla, blah.
    But no, she's a Nazi. Or a stupid dupe, I guess.

    If the Bushies are such evil manipulators (when they are not being
    stupid, I guess) why didn't they just stick some fake WMD's in Iraq?
    Halliburton could have pulled it off, right? I mean it was them who
    were contracted to fake all the Apollo missions, right?

    Katrina can be summed up as incompetent local authorities (don't follow
    the disaster plan worked out after last time!), cumbersome and wasteful
    federal authorities (make fire fighters sit trough sexual harrasment
    seminars before the can go save people), and hysterical media reporting
    3rd hand rumor as fact (snipers shooting at helicopters causing them to
    be grounded and delay further help, killings in the dome, etc). All
    these behaviors pre-date Bush 43 by a million years.

    That isn't to say the Cheney shooting some guy wasn't an idiot move of
    colossal proportions.

    Could it be the fact that she's a brown-nose (not racially) and ass
    kisser that causes my contempt?

    FWIW, I still admire Colin Powell, even if I wish he had resigned in
    2003.

    Incompetence explains alot. This is the Gang That Couldn't Shoot
    Straight. W is the biggest idiot/bufoon since Harding.

    Because they don't care what other people thought -- they invaded
    anyway and just claim, after the fact, that it was for regime change.

    If Chickenhawk Cheney would have entered the military like he
    was suppose to instead of weaseling out of the draft with his 5
    deferments maybe he would have learned to use a firearm correctly.

    Running down a bobby on a bicycle?! The rest of their indiscretions can
    be dismissed as stupidity and hubris, but this deserves impeachment! I
    missed this demonstration of administrative ineptitude; when was the
    bobby bowled over?

    Yes, I quite liked that one when I saw it this morning.

    Between him and Rumsfeld, they must make the Secret Service feel
    like loose ends.
