LIVE THREAD: Cheney's Interview on FNC (Interview now!)

Fox News Channel | February 15, 2006 | Fox News Channel

[Peach]

The Vice President has given an exclusive interview to Fox News. The entire interview will be released at 6:00 EST with excerpts coming as soon as 2:00 this afternoon.

[Palladin]

Spit Matthews was totally bizarre tonight. If he said "cherry-picking" once, he said it a dozen times.

The FBI should check his computer for kiddie porn.

[A CA Guy]

I just heard some Air America guy on Scarborough claiming Cheney could have been drunk.
We'll what nobody seems to be bringing yo back to this tool is the VP is surrounded by doctors and law enforcement officers, and there is ZERO way they would let him drink and shoot. It was said the whole party was not drinking at all.

[Salvation]

Did anyone else crack up LOL when Brit shared what he told the reporters about why Fox News got the interview?

Because they had the largest audience.

I was practically rolling on the floor laughing!

[Salvation]

With all the heart stuff that Cheney has gone through -- he is going to risk getting drunk?

I don't think so.

[DCPatriot]

Then I obviously misread your post.

Nonetheless, at some time early Saturday evening he smiled to himself over the upcoming Gregory hissy fit.

His choice of Brit Hume speaks volumes. That was the ONLY network that offered fair coverage of the Republican party.

The ratings are the ratings. FOX is #1 in primetime...hell all evening.

Thanks for taking the time to respond.

[Palladin]

Barnes looked like he wanted to hit that little creep Mort Kondrake this evening.

[Palladin]

Was Cafferty drinking and driving? He usually looks half-bagged on the program.

Talk about pots and kettles!

[FreeReign]

FWIW, my mother just told me that my very non-political brother was ranting about the way the media's running this story into the ground. He's a hunting and fishing nut, and he said "These two guys are just hunting buddies who had an accident, and these idiot reporters don't know what the h*ll they're talking about. They just don't realize how stupid they sound."

I know liberals who have never gone hunting. They think the coverage is way over the top.

[GoldwaterChick]

And I still want to know when Ted is going to file his police report for his Chappaquidick vehicle accident!

[DCPatriot]

I know...caught myself talking out loud a couple of times. And I was alone.

Mort. He's such an altar boy

[Palladin]

Well, I had one very big laugh tonight when Alan Colmes asked, in all seriousness:

"Don't you think the Vice President will suffer politically for shooting small animals to eat?"

HAHAHAHAHA! It was a self-parody. But Alan didn't know it.

[GoldwaterChick]

"Lately I've only stuck around for the panel if Krauthammer is on"

That makes two of us. And what's with Bob Novak being on it the other day? His time is long past--he's an absolute dinosaur.

/And if Dick Cheney had called the MSM immediately they would still be attacking him, so he is right to ignore them. Besides, everyone is watching FNC!

[mjaneangels@aolcom]

"Because that's how important they think they are; they honestly believe if they don't tell us, it didn't happen."

I will make a promise to all the press that if I am ever with them and they get injured, I will be very glad to call the WH press corp for them.

They better not want me to call an ambulance.

[Howlin]

Barnes looked like he wanted to hit that little creep Mort Kondrake this evening.

And they are best friends!

[Howlin]

They'll say anything. Literally.

Now Tucker Carlson is asking the same question, plus "who were the women with them?"

[A CA Guy]

Cheney said 5 friends (guys).

His doctor was nearby and he is surrounded by law enforcement for his protection.

How would it be possible for Cheney to drink and then with law enforcement around be allowed to be shooting a gun?
That would have been against the law for the VP's protection to allow. They are a branch of law enforcement and themselves would be breaking the law to do that.

No possible way that happened.

Cheney should not only get a statement from the friends that they were not drinking, but should also get his protection to sign and verify as well.

[Denver Ditdat]

I still want to know why Clinton fell at Greg Norman's.

Stoned and/or faced would be my bet. Or perhaps the boxers dropped around his ankles tripped him up.

[pollyannaish]

I didn't hear it, but I sure can imagine it.

At this point I figure the MSM is essentially doing shark jumps in leather jackets...one right after the other. Wheeeee!

[Howlin]

That's my guess.

[Cinnamon]

that sissy David Gregory... he got b-slapped by Mcclellan, lmao.. "Dave, the cameras are not on.." lmao
