Re: OT: Cheney takes to plugging Americans outright



In talk.origins I read this message from "chris.linthompson@xxxxxxxxx"
<chris.linthompson@xxxxxxxxx>:

[snip]
The man Cheney misstook for a quail, millionaire attorney Harry
Whittington, was in plain sight, wearing a bright orange vest at the
time the vice president blasted him.

Actually it is worse than that. According to White House statements,
Cheney heard birds flush behind him, so he turned and cut loose
straight into the setting sun.

As a (former) hunter, I would say that shooting at sound is about the
stupidest thing you can do. Shooting at sound with the sun straight in
your eyes- well...this is the guy who could have control of nucular
weapons in a heartbeat? How's that for a judgement call?

Has anyone noticed that the supposed eyewitness who reported this to the
press was actually sitting in a car about 100 yards away? At dusk.
