1. I think it was a message to the idealogues
As we know, Cheney is nothing more than a major league thief crusading as a politician. He knows his craft well, having been in the game for a lifetime. He is, however, encountering opposition from people who actually have a political philosophy--people like the libertarian lawyer he shot.

Whether this is an accident or purposeful, I would still argue that the shooting was an act of the subconscious. On some level, he knew what he was doing.

I also think this action is a result of the enormous stress he's under. He knows the jig is up and it's only a matter of time.

2. The VP shot someone on purpose?
To send a message? What is wrong with you guys? Maybe he was drunk, maybe he is a buffoon, but he shot his friend for a political message? Come on. Talk like this gives credit to those who say we are nuts.

4. Listen, this administration is so corrupt there is no depths to which
they won't sink.

Whever looking at a situation involving these jersks - pick the evilist explanation you can muster - and then run with that. This adminstration doesn't make mistakes - they do evil.

5. I get it
I just think it's stupid. The VP shot his friend on purpose? No, I don't think so. The evilest explanation I can think of in "reality" is drunkeness (which would explain the media delay and turning away the Sheriff's deputy), or simple incompetence. Cheney is a ruthless businessman mascarading as a politician. I don't believe he's that bad guy on Law and Order.

6. *giggle* Always announce your "flush".
:hurts:

Shaking the tree Boss, shaking the tree.

I don't know why that 'Cool Hand Luke' scene just popped into my head.
