Vice President **** Cheney accidentally shoots man.
WASHINGTON - Vice President **** Cheney accidentally shot and injured a man during a weekend quail hunting trip in Texas, his spokeswoman said Sunday. <br /><br />Harry Whittington, 78, was alert and doing fine after Cheney sprayed Whittington with shotgun pellets on Saturday at the Armstrong Ranch in south Texas, said property owner Katharine Armstrong. <br /><br />Armstrong said Cheney turned to shoot a bird and accidentally hit Whittington. She said Whittington was taken to Corpus Christi Memorial Hospital by ambulance. <br /><br />Cheney's spokeswoman, Lea Anne McBride, said the vice president was with Whittington, a lawyer from Austin, Texas, and his wife at the hospital on Sunday afternoon.
Now I understand why I see people out hunting using an ambulance for wheels 
Rod I have ben drenched many times while hunting dove, not dirrectly shot, you know some one a couple of hundred yards away takes a high shot and the pellits come raining down, dont hurt,, I do ware shooting glases I guess you could have eye dammage if you were looking where the shot fell from.<br /> But I agree If someone burned me with a shot, their day is over and they aint hunting on my place any more.<br /> I told my boys and my nephews from a young age If I caught them intentionaly pointing a gun at someone, I would break it over the bumper of my truck. I havent had to break one yet. When the kids were young some of thier frinds who came out to hunt had to leave, and werent welcome to come back.Originally posted by rodbolt:<br /> funny thing is apperantly cheney popeed a cap on the man yesterday and tried to hush it,<br />had it been me that popped a cap on a buddy in a gross show of stupid the cops would have been called and it would have made the next edition.<br /> Trent<br /> remind me not to hunt with you.<br /> yes I hunted quail and dove many many years and no I have never been sprayed much less shot by a buddy.<br /> I tend to pick my hunting buddies very carefully and a lot never make that second trip.<br /> my daddy always taught me to shoot with two eyes open, one on the barral and the other looking.<br /> if it dont look right dont take the shot. period.<br /> but at least it was a crook to crook shooting
No. No one made fun of Kerry. That was the real Kerry in all of his shine brilliance, or lack there of. Pretty much been that way with all of the presidential candidates the democrats/communists (same thing) have offered us the last couple of elections...idiots.
Well, it may show he's not much of a sportsman and one could even deduce that it should be banned,but making the quantum leap to say that the man(our current Vice President) is mentally unbalanced because of it ,begs the reader to wonder as to the mental stability of the source.
<br /><br />I would expect a barrage of comments if I had made such a claim.
