Should Vice President Cheney's hunting accident be a source of concern for the Bush Administration?
340757
Of course they should be concerned about Cheney's hunting accident. \n\nThe fact that Harry Wittington stood up and apologized to the Vice President and his family - caked with makeup - was a real special moment for Cheney. Chaney said that the day of the accident was the Worst Day Of His Life.\n\nI guess the day he lied about the reasons for going to war in Iraq was the second worst day. \n\nThis Administration is a complete train wreck. No need to get into it all - as we all know what it's about anyway. \n\nO I L !!! \n\nCheney does need to find himself a new hunting guide - and quick!\n\nAs they say, "The Buck(shot) Stops Here!"

In a word 'YES'. He knew the consequences.  Colin Powell warned him (and got railroaded for it), but instead of listening to a more experienced smarter voice, he listened to The Three Blind Rats - Condi, Rove and Cheney.  \n\nIf a Democratic president had done a fraction of what Bush did, we'll be spending our days watching him defend himself on CourtTV.

When I first heard about the outing of a covert CIA agent, the wife of one of the most out-spoken critics of Bush's wanting to go to war, I knew right then Bush was responsible.  Now Scooter Libby says his "superiors" told him to leak the info... You think the VP did this without the President's knowledge??? Of course not!  It's exactly the kind of down right "meaness" that Bush has been known for since he was Gov. of Texas...We go to war without provocation for the first time in history.  We torture prisoners for the first time in history.  The destroying of the enviornment, 8 trillion deficit, Katrina...If Bush manages to somehow not be impeached, at least history will be the judge of this presidency!\n\nIn answer to below... it is against the law for a government official with access to classified information to expose the identify of a covert CIA agent.  It puts the life of the agent and the lives of those they are working with or have worked with under-cover in danger.

No. This story has gotten out of proportion, just like the Monica Lewinsky story under Bill Clinton.\n\nThe White House is really benefiting by this story though because nobody is talking about Iraq at the moment. It's like they planned for this little story to get out of hand, and stay that way for as long as possible.\n\nI would really like to know about the guns and alcohol issues of this story though.

this is one of those times you need to just throw your political feelings out the window and keep an open mind.  add to it the fact that the story is not yet finished and it's hard to predict what will happen to mr. cheney, and (more importantly) harry whittington.  \n\ni don't know if there is any legal precedent for having a sitting vice president be removed from office for an offense like this.  mr. cheney is very unpopular with many people (including me) because of his political views, but i have to feel a little bit for the guy because it was, after all, an 'accident'.  i don't agree with the fact cheney hasn't addressed the issue... but saying 'impeach him' because of this incident is a knee-jerk reaction by those who didn't like him last week either.  i'm gonna read up more and see where this story leads before continuing...\n\nps::: well i see where mr. whittington was released from the hospital, so thankfully your scenario won't play out.  i am very curious though about the 'holes' in cheney's story.  \n\npps::: it's funny, at first i felt sorry for the vice-president, but now that whittington is ok, my feeling has turned more toward disgust with cheney.  i wonder why this is?

i agree with you too, we deserve someone better than bush. And plus, cheney is just shooting people and saying its an accident, you know we deserve someone better than that!

haha, lol. yeah, i heard about Cheney. When he shot the guy, he hit him in a heart muscle, and now hes in the hospital after he had a heart attack. poor guy...

Dick Cheney, no matter what ones views of him are, continues to have heart problems despite doctors saying that he's healthy. Things can possibly change for the worse very quickly for anybody, and Dick Cheney is no exception. President Bush and the Republican Party continue to struggle with low approval ratings, and the Republican Party, at every political level, had one of its worst showings ever on November 7. President Bush and the Republican Party, like it or not, are going to do all that they can do to gain favor with the majority of voters prior to November 4, '08, and this will include major and minor changes from within the Bush administration. Dick Cheney has already said several times that he has no interest in ever running for President, and the '08 Presidential race will be a very "open" race for everyone involved .One of these possible changes could come with President Bush replacing Vice President Dick Cheney with either Condi Rice or Mitt Romney-two people who President Bush like very much. There are many people who are already predicting that it will be either Condi Rice (despite her saying over and over again that she isn't interested in running for President anytime soon) or Mitt Romney who will end up as the Republicans final choice for President in '08. Having either Condi Rice or Mitt Romney become Vice President could help to boost either persons' chances at becoming President in '08.

Cheney didn't shoot a senator.  He ACCIDENTALLY shot a lawyer friend of his.  I swear, some folks need to get their heads out of their rectal canal...\n\n\nYou edited your post, subcultural, but your head is STILL up your butt.

He asked Dubya, who declined from going on a lame Duck hunt. In order to be polite about the refusal, he went to Vietnam! While there Bush said some more random crap and shot himself in the foot, then stuck his foot in his mouth to stop the flow of stupidity from coming out his mouth.\nCheney did have a taker on the hunting trip. Sorry folks. Rush Limbaugh went on the hunt with Cheney. Dick got tired of listening to Rush rambling on and actually took aim. His show will not air until he sees Foley, who will no doubt fish out the buckshot from his arse.

No, Dick Cheney got in serious trouble this year for leaking the name of a CIA agent. So basically the answer is; if the vice president can't get away with it than nobody else can.

Yes I do and I hope he implicates George Bush as Libby would not be stupid enough to do it on his own. Bush would! That's a no brainer.\n\nHow many before Libby have fallen on their sword for Bush?

well i certainly think the car crash was on purpose, the vice president wants to eliminate lincoln.\nabout his son i believe he will go to juvenile and end of story or probably they will use him to black mail him , i do not know just speculations but next monday we will know a little more

Of course.\nBush, Cheney, and their posse should all be investigated.

This is not a stupid question.  Bush's staff had considered delaying the 2004 election due to "national security" concerns.  It was shot down, but I promise you, this idea is still on Rove & Cheney's table.  Those folks are so guilty that if democrats get control of at least 1 arm of congress, they are hosed.  Rove & Cheney won't let that happen.\n\nIf Bush can sell warrantless and unlimited searches to the a majority of americans, he can sell an election "postponement".  After all, we're in a war on terror, right?

He should not get jailed for acciedently shooting someone, but he should get fined for not having the proper lisence for the type of bird he was hunting. Just because he is the Vice President of the United States, he is not above the law.
