Official verdict: a "hunter's judgment factor".
On Monday, the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department issued a report that found the main factor contributing to Cheney's hunting accident was a 'hunter's judgment factor.'

So, the number 2 guy (some would argue #1) in our government has "judgment" problems.
Boy, is that reassuring.

How about we get him impeached first, pressure dumbya to appoint someone half-way decent to replace him, and then impeach dumbya.

Yep, that works for me.

5. Assumed Deadeye's, but you make a good point.
No names named.

2. No secondary factor. It's all on Cheney.
Who is still blaming Whittington.

3. Yes, just like Janet Jackson's "wardrobe malfunction."

4. More:
A Texas Parks and Wildlife Department report 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 wildlife department issued a report Monday that 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.
