Of course they mocked Cheney for mocking Kerry and his camo hunting vest during the campaign.
I suppose Kerry really WOULDN’T have shot anyone. After all, I’m fairly certain as the saying goes that "that dog won’t hunt".
Yet this major nonstory IS all we hear about. Perhaps when your alternative was covering Al Gore outlining our war crimes against Saudis after 9/11 this really IS more interesting.
Or finding out a lot of that money we dumped into the pockets of those fleeing New Orleans was spent on things that had very little to do with common sense upkeep as refugees. Do we not hear more about the massage parlors, tattoo’s and traffic fine payoffs (hey, at least they paid them.....) because in actuality it doesn’t really surprise our media guardians? |

I guess the biggest question about the Cheney shooting that the American public have is why was he hunting Dan Quail?
Will the new uniform for the secret service now be orange?
Does this now mean that Republican lawyers will all be required to lose face in the presense of the VP? |

You know I’m a big fan of The Daily Show. My favorite was Daily Show correspondent Rob Cordry,Jon, tonight the vice president is standing by his decision to shoot Harry Whittington. According to the best intelligence available, there were quail hidden in the brush. Everyone believed at the time there were quail in the brush. And while the quail turned out to be a 78-year-old man, even knowing that today, Mr. Cheney insists he still would have shot Mr. Whittington in the face. He believes the world is a better place for his spreading buckshot throughout the entire region of Mr. Whittington’s face. Come on, that’s funny.
But I’m sure that Bush prostrator’s will no doubt see east-coast-liberal-media-Bush-bashing Jon Stewart as using the tragedy of the accident to further his political agenda.
Lighten up… Tools.

Pogi,
McQ is Bush’s prostrator?? Yeah right. "snort"
I don’t know but if there is a choice between hunting with Dick Cheney or riding with Teddy K, I prefer Cheney since Mary Jo did not come out of that experience very well did she? |

Actually, the REAL comedy over the incident comes from (of course) the White House Press Corps, which I suppose has to show they can be tough with someone after being cowed into sumbission by Islamists... |

Actually, there’s been a lot of funny over this in the comment sections of several sites, including this gem by Pogue:This is too much fun…
Can you picture The Vice President in a Pulp Fiction setting…
The Big Dick with greased black jerry curls…The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the inequities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he, who in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley of darkness, for he is truly his brother’s keeper and the finder of lost children. And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who would attempt to poison and destroy my brothers.
AND YOU WILL KNOW MY NAME IS DICK CHENEY WHEN I LAY MY VENGEANCE UPON THEE. Okay, I’ll stop now.
:) ... and this one by mkultra (of all people):From the Wish I Had Said It First Department ....* The Attorney General claims that the Vice President was granted the power to shoot lawyers under the resolution allowing use of force in Afghanistan. Written By: mkultra ... but some of the best were by commenter Stefan at Political Animal:(1)Cheney was just upset that the ducks weren’t greeting him as a liberator....
(2)None of this would have happened if Bush had only read that PDB titled "Cheney determined to strike in Texas"....
(3)This was merely pre-emptive. Cheney struck Whittington before Whittington could pose a threat to America. After all, you can’t wait until the smoking gun is, well, a smoking gun....
(4)[Stefan replies to:] frankly0: sorry, there’s no set procedure for an investigation...without loss of life or evidence of foul play — birdshot wounds are way too routine to spark official investigations..seriously. There was certainly evidence of fowl play.... And last, but certainly not least:(5) Look, you go hunting with the vice president you have, not the vice president you wish you had....Posted by: Stefan on February 12, 2006 at 7:01 PM | |

Would you call Jonah Goldberg from The Corner at National Review Online a Bush prostrator. He has some funny jokes of his own. Seriously, this is a non-story, but a funny non-story to be sure. Lots of good jokes out there on both sides. |

I don’t know Jonah Goldberg. And I have no doubt that conservatives will poke fun at the VP as well. But this is what I’m talking about…Hat tip: Tom Elia at The New Editor, who rightly raises his eyebrow at Milbank’s display of less-than-objective journalism.
What does the Post have to say about Milbank’s stunt?
Write the ombudsman: ombudsman@washpost.com. Anyone who watches Dana Milbank on The Countdown with Keith Olberman knows full well that Dana often shows up wearing a costume poking fun at the issue of the day.
But of course Malkin’s idiotic outrage is typical ballyhoo from a typical idiotic red-meat vendor.
She continues…Now, imagine the MSM uproar if a reporter showed up for an interview with this bumper sticker (via Expose the Left) on his/her chest:I’d rather hunt with Dick Cheney
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Than ride with Ted Kennedy Hardly comparible to Milbank’s "stunt". |

No, Mark. I find them both mildly humorous.
It’s Malkin’s,…who rightly raises his eyebrow at Milbank’s display of less-than-objective journalism. Display of less-than-objective journalism? Now that’s wildly humorous.
With the exception that some people take Michelle Malkin seriously.
Dana Milbank’s “display” was purely satirical. No question.
I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again. Michelle Malkin is a tool.

hah, I’ll agree with MichaelW on that one. But yeah, she is all worked up over not much. I think Jon’s point may be partly to blame, basically that no one watches the countdown with Keith Olberman so no one knew that Dana does this regularly (I guess, I dont really watch the countdown either). |
