This is getting bad.

If the guy dies or goes into a long-term coma, it may be a political Chernobyl for the administration

Geez, take a breath and calm down. Turn off the tv and stop listening to the crap they are spewing.

According to the latest press accounts the man is doing fine.

The 78-year-old lawyer who was shot by Vice President Dick Cheney in a hunting accident has some birdshot in or touching his heart and he had "a silent heart attack" Tuesday morning, hospital officials said.

The victim, Harry Whittington, was immediately moved back to the intensive care unit for further treatment, said Peter Banko, the administrator at Christus Spohn Hospital Corpus Christi-Memorial in Texas.

Banko said doctors conducting a regular checkup on Whittington Tuesday morning discovered an irregularity in the heartbeat caused by a pellet, and they performed a cardiac catheterization around 10 a.m. EST. Whittington was in stable condition after treatment and expressed a desire to leave the hospital, but Banko said they would probably keep him for another week to make sure that more birdshot does not move to other vital organs.

Take a breath yourself. I don't listen to their crap. The stupid public does.

And no, Mr. Whittington is not "fine." He may be later, but we don't know that yet. All we know right now is that it could have been worse.
