Ya'll have to admit that having a hunting accident at a prefabricated, disneyland, golf club type of place is fucking hilarious! You drive from spot to spot to pick off hand fed quail that are raised to not fear humans. . .it gives new meaning to the word "hunt." To shoot someone in the face at a place thats does everything for you but shoot the gun is pure comedy!

another funny thing was the "liberal" press scrambling to make sure it didn't sound like the guy was hurt. "His condition has been described as 'better than good', and in fact the 78-year old said he wanted to THANK VP Cheney for shooting him in the face." It reminded me of the Python skit about Doug & Dinsdale Pirana. "Old Dinsy came 'round and nailed me 'ead to the floor...mind you, I had it coming!"

Why is it I see this statement all over the Global Inter-Thingy this morning? Did the Daily Kos have an expose this morning? All we've been told so far is that Armstrong Ranch is a a hunting ranch. What you are describing is a "Game Preserve" and yes it is a pretty twisted way of hunting. The birds are captive bred and have very little street smarts. I've been trying to find info on Armstrong Ranch and can't find anything as to what kind of hunting is done there. I do know Texas is loaded with private ranches that the rich use for hunting as there isn't much public hunting land. This does not mean the land is not wild hunting land. It just means it's private. But like I said, I can't find any info on it so if anyone can show me it operated as a game preserve, I'll eat my words.

Look. IMO. The bottom line is just that Cheney doesn't know how to handle a shotgun. My personal shotgun of choice is a 12 guage pump action sawed off. But I'd never lend mine to that guy....now.

Maxy best I can find on short notice (car hunting on a private ranch). . . BTW I love your new wallpaper on your message board!
"According to Armstrong's account, she was watching from a car while Cheney, Whittington and another hunter got out of the vehicle to shoot at a covey of quail. Whittington shot a bird and as he went to retrieve it, Cheney and the third hunter discovered a second covey."

Hunter shot by Cheney has heart attack
LYNN BREZOSKY and NEDRA PICKLER
Associated Press
CORPUS CHRISTI, Texas - The 78-year-old lawyer who was shot by Vice President Dick Cheney in a hunting accident has some birdshot lodged in his heart and he had "a minor 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 there was an irregularity in the heartbeat caused by a pellet, and doctors performed a cardiac catheterization. Whittington expressed a desire to leave the hospital, but Banko said he would probably stay for another week to make sure more shot doesn't move to other organs or to other part of his body.
"Some of the birdshot appears to have moved and lodged into part of his heart in what we would say is a minor heart attack," Banko said in a news conference outside the hospital.
David Blanchard, chief of emergency care, called it "a silent heart attack, an asymptomatic heart attack. He's not had a heart attack in the traditional sense."
The doctors said Whittington did not experience symptoms of a heart attack or any other problems. They left the birdshot in place and said he could live a healthy life with it there.
White House physicians who attended to Whittington at the scene after Cheney accidentally shot him were involved in the treatment, the officials said.
Whittington had initially been placed in intensive care after the accident Saturday evening. He had been moved to a "step-down unit" Monday after doctors decided to leave several birdshot pellets lodged in his skin rather than try to remove them.
A Texas Parks and Wildlife Department report issued Monday said Whittington was retrieving a downed bird and stepped out of the hunting line he was sharing with Cheney. "Another covey was flushed and Cheney swung on a bird and fired, striking Whittington in the face, neck and chest at approximately 30 yards," the report said.
The department found the main factor contributing to the accident was a "hunter's judgment factor." No other secondary factors were found to have played a role.
The department gave Cheney and Whittington warning citations for breaking Texas hunting law by failing to buy a $7 stamp allowing them to shoot upland game birds. A department spokesman said warnings are being issued in most cases because the stamp requirement only went into effect five months ago and many hunters weren't aware of it.
Cheney's office said Monday night in a statement that Cheney had a $125 nonresident hunting license and has sent a $7 check to cover the cost of the stamp. "The staff asked for all permits needed, but was not informed of the $7 upland game bird stamp requirement," the statement said.
Cheney, an experienced hunter, has not said anything publicly about the accident. It was fodder for jokes on late night TV and early Tuesday at the White House, before news surfaced about problems with Whittington's heart.
Hospital officials said they notified the White House of the change in Whittington's condition late in the morning. The mood of press secretary Scott McClellan was much more serious in an afternoon press briefing shortly before the hospital publicly updated Whittington's condition.
Katharine Armstrong, owner of the ranch where the shooting occurred, said Whittington made a mistake by not announcing that he had walked up to rejoin the hunting line after going to retrieve his bird, and Cheney didn't see him as he tried to down a bird.
The accident raised questions about Cheney's adherence to hunting safety practices and the White House's failure to disclose the accident in a timely way.
Several hunting safety experts agreed in interviews that it would have been a good idea for Whittington to announce himself. But every expert stressed that the shooter is responsible for avoiding other people.
Bush was told about Cheney's involvement in the accident shortly before 8 p.m. Saturday - about an hour after it occurred - but the White House did not disclose the accident until Sunday afternoon, and then only in response to press questions.

Have any of you ever been bird hunting? Shooting out of a car is not at all unusual. It's done all the time. That's because the birds are often in culverts along the side of the road.
And by the way, I find the fact that you guys are sitting around wishing this man death so you can take some sort of advantage in your political discussion bizarre. |
