Too bad I can't stay up for late nite.Quote:
‘Late Show with David Letterman,’ CBS
“Good news, ladies and gentlemen, we have finally located weapons of mass destruction: It’s Dick Cheney.”
“But here is the sad part — before the trip Donald Rumsfeld had denied the guy’s request for body armor.”
“We can’t get Bin Laden, but we nailed a 78-year-old attorney.”
“The guy who got gunned down, he is a Republican lawyer and a big Republican donor and fortunately the buck shot was deflected by wads of laundered cash. So he’s fine. He took a little in the wallet.”
‘The Tonight Show with Jay Leno,’ NBC
“Although it is beautiful here in California, the weather back East has been atrocious. There was so much snow in Washington, D.C., Dick Cheney accidentally shot a fat guy thinking it was a polar bear.
“That’s the big story over the weekend. ... Dick Cheney accidentally shot a fellow hunter, a 78-year-old lawyer. In fact, when people found out he shot a lawyer, his popularity is now at 92 percent.”
“I think Cheney is starting to lose it. After he shot the guy he screamed, ‘Anyone else want to call domestic wire tapping illegal?”’
“Dick Cheney is capitalizing on this for Valentine’s Day. It’s the new Dick Cheney cologne. It’s called Duck!”
IDIOT.
The 1st rule of hunting in a group is to know EXACTLY where all the members of your party are.
He should've known better.
I was watching Fox News, and not only were they saying the guy was fine, they were basically blaming him for not yelling, "HEY I'M NOT A QUAIL DON'T SHOOT ME IN THE FACE DICK CHENEY," before Cheney shot him in the face.Quote:

Texas authorities have "cleared him of all wrongdoing". So if Im hunting with, say, station82o and he shoots me in the face by accident will Texas authorities clear him of all wrongdoing?Quote:

If the guy dies he gets charged with manslaughter as mentioned above... but Bush will pardon him without a doubt.
Keep in mind they werent even really hunting... they were doing the rich man's equivalent of fish in a barrel.
Yea. McClellan was fucking joking about it this morning.Quote:

Leno and Letterman had more gold than just those quotes about it. It's a shame the guy might die because of the shot, since this is the funniest news story in a long time.
Think Cheney is going to have a heart attack himself due to all the pressure?
I don't know exactly how it went down, but I figure it's the responsibility of the guy with the gun to make sure there aren't any innocent bystanders in the way before he pulls the trigger. Unless the 78 year old man dove in front on the path of Cheney's gun to protect the life of an innocent quail.Quote:
