...Cheney is the 3rd VP to shoot somebody.

1) Aaron Burr, under Jefferson, shot and killed Alexander Hamilton in that famous duel
2) Richard Johnson under somebody...shot a famous Indian Chief.

Sorry about my short term memory...what was I saying?

When Harry got off the cart he said "Dick I'm behind ya". The Veep must have heard "I'm Adam Clymer".

The single most tragic shooting in U.S. history. President Hamilton would have been a gold standard benchmark for the ages.

Johnson shot Tecumseh in the War of 1812, BEFORE he became Vice-President.
