When you shoot somebody in the chest - head-on, you have something against them. And you don't bother to just do it with bird shot in a .410 shotgun.

NO. They did NOT do this!

I heard Rove held up quail feathers behind Whittington's hat. And shook them...

Ok, the truth is Cheney thought he saw a guy in a tutu run in front of him that looked like Ron Reagan. The VP was just having some fun and thought that the chiffon on the tutu would absorb any impact from a 28 gauge bird shot. It was bird shot not BUCK SHOT as reported by some media.

Ron may be on to something. Check out this story

Iraq War Distracts Bush from Cheney Shooting

By Scott Ott, Editor-in-Chief, ScrappleFace.com

News Fairly Unbalanced. We Report. You Decipher.

(2006-02-13) — White House spokesman Scott McClellan, peppered with reporters’ questions about Vice President Dick Cheney’s accidental weekend shooting of a hunting buddy, said President George Bush was “not immediately informed of the incident because he was too distracted by the Iraq war.”

“If, because of the war, the president doesn’t have time to catch Usama bin Laden,” Mr. McClellan said, “when do you think he’ll find a moment to deal with a quail hunting accident in Texas? ”

In related news, Mr. McClellan said the Bush administration is sticking with its initial ’single-shooter’ theory.

“From all indications,” he said, “the vice president acted alone. Lab reports show that all of the pellets came from a single 28-gauge shotgun which had the Vice President’s fingerprints all over it.”

Despite these assurances, the White House press corps buzzed with conspiracy rumors, including suggestions that the quail, which Mr. Cheney allegedly shot at, had not flown in a completely random, natural pattern, but seemed to intentionally pass in front of 78-year-old attorney Harry Whittington.

Ron Reagan...basket case, end of story.

Pat Buchanan...aww Pat, are you confused? Cheney is Methodist, not Jewish. Pat should stop hanging around those diesel engines.

Did Ron Reagan Jr joke that he wished that the lawyer had shot Cheney? It wouldn't surprise me at all. I'm sure leftist wackjobs all over the web are saying this already.

I didn't see the interview, so I'm holding out faint hope that Buchanan's remark was tongue-in-cheek, or some other tone or context not meant to be taken seriously -- but if he did join in on the tinfoil conspiracy theme around this non-incident, I'm ashamed to say I once was a staunch supporter and admirer of Buchanan's.

Ron "Dracula" Reagan. Man, with all of the money that this little sissy has, why doesn't he get those teeth fixed?

Reagan appeared on tonight's Hardball with Chris Matthews, and in decrying the fact that the Secret Service apparently denied local law enforcement immediate access to Cheney, said the following:

...just trying to make Ronald Reagan's Poofda son feel at home on this thread...

Anything that flaming bag of dog excrement says is unimportant...the only thing that was important was...did he feel FABULOUS while on TV?!

This is just laughable. Are there any people out there who take Ron Reagan seriously?

Libel, slander, defamation of character. Did I miss anything? Oh yeah, Ron Reagan is an embarassment to his parents.

I have nothing against Cheney, and too much booze (on his part) is a distinct longshot, but I wouldn't rule out lack of focus due to his medications. I have gotta admit, I was surprised to see that someone with as serious a heart condition as he has would be out in the woods with any kind of gun, let alone a shotgun. Of course if it was John Kerry in a hunting accident or a jet skiing accident, more likely, Ron Reagan would be all over anyone trying to suggest anything untoward about Kerry.
