You mean, LIKE SHOOTING AN INNOCENT MAN?! What is it with Bush and Cheney? I mean, I get that they're never going to admit making a mistake in invading Iraq, but how hard is it to admit you made a mistake when you shoot someone and almost kill them? And what does it say about someone who can't?

What all of this suggests is that the White House was more interested in a cover-up than the health of the victim or the public's right to know. Their number one issue was hiding the story, or else they would have told the president at least what happened, and they didn't.

This is downright bizarre. And honestly, someone needs to dig a little deeper into exactly how this "accident" occurred. Usually hunting accidents are accidents, but sometimes they're not. But usually when they're accidents, the shooter has nothing to hide and hides nothing. In this case, the White House was intent on hiding something. And that is bizarre.

How will the White House explain Dick Cheney shooting a guy in the face?
Usually the polls on my site are pretty facetious, but for once I’m actually half-serious. Will it be:

a) Washington, Lincoln, and Roosevelt all shot guys in the face, too
b) The Patriot Act gives Cheney the legal authority to shoot guys in the face
c) The victim’s face was harboring Al-Qaeda's #3 man, or
d) If you’re innocent, you shouldn’t mind a shotgun blast to the face
