They are calling them pellets. Talking about how they won't be able to remove them all.
Face, neck, and upper torso.
He's calling them BB's. Small buckshot; superficial wounds at best.

It would probably cause more trauma to remove them than the pellets caused themselves in the first place. Number 8 birdshot is pretty small stuff, and there are a lot of vital organs and major blood vessels in that area. They'll probably just load him up on antibiotics to knock the risk of infection down, and let nature take it's course.
I wonder if he'll have enough metal in him to set off the metal detectors when he flies? Could be an interesting story to tell the screener - "Yeah, the Vice President plugged me!"
