This hunting story resonates with the regular folk that supported bushco
because they know Cheney got special treatment by the sheriff's dept when they were turned away by the SS Saturday night. They drink beer when hunting. Hell, it isn't hunting unless alcohol is involved. But they know Cheney got special treatment to avoid getting charged with intoxication manslaughter if Whittington dies. They know they would have had their party broken up and their asses hauled in for partying it up with shotguns in hand. And they know Cheney's attitude is basically, "Fuck it all, I'm the Vice President."

And that is why even Foc news is getting negative email on this story.

2. How sad is that? I'll take it, though. Anyway. Anyhow!
Peace.

3. Hmmm. I wonder if you're giving them too much credit. Just when you
think that they may start to have a glimmer of a hint of an idea, they fool you. They do a complete 180 and prove once again that they're dumber than a box of rocks.

5. I'm afraid it'll be more like "Could'a happened to anyone . . .
"Why I 'member when Joe, Jim, Jerry an' I were huntin' deer last year an' we blew away that poor heifer. Damn, that farmer wuz mad! Lucky thing fer that law-yer fella' that Cheney wuzn't drinkin', cuz he woulda shredded him good 'n proper if he wuz. Dam' librulz tryin' to make a big deal a' nuthin'."

9. No, people DO feel "coulda happened to anyone" but they ALSO recognize
that if it were them, they wouldn't get to set the conditions of their questioning.

7. So right!
the pro bushcos respond to this kind of story. The other issues are too complicated and require knowledge of the Constitution. I still say, if a lot of RWs were shown the Constitution without the title, they would say it was unconstitutional.

Now, if we can just get the identities of all who were on this "target practice with living things" party - we can figure out isfthere was any hanky panky. That, more than anything is what resonates with the people.

8. You are absolutely right.
Cheney's toast. He won't survive this.
