Cheney's friend did not die, the same can not be said for Mary Joe Kapekne.  Before you go and say that was so long ago do not forget the rape case in the Kennedy coumpound in West Palm Beach, and just recently another Kennedy was popped driving under the influence and was given the same preferential treatment as good old Teddy. Let's not forget Jefferson who accepted a $100,000 bribe then gets upset because the FBI searched his office as part of the investigation. What Clinton did (&^%*# an intern) would have gotten any CEO of a US company fired, but nothing was done for that (remember the empeachment was for lying to the Grand Jury under oath). Another Dem smacks a security guard because he asked her for I.D... Let's face it ALL politicians get preferential treatment. That's the problem, if you want to say the other side gets more preferential treatment I could go on. If I really have to go on, there is just no sense of doing so.

Probably about fifty ft since the lawyer he hit was hit at 30 ft away.  The lawyer guy stepped off the line and didn't announce it though.  It was partly his fault.  But Cheney should have known to know exactly what he was shooting at if when hunting in a group.

No one is saying Cheney shot his hunting buddy on purpose, I've heard no talk of criminal charges,it was an accident,but not an accident I feel is easily excusable.\nA man who has been hunting as long as Cheney has no excuse for not knowing what is in his field of fire before pulling the trigger... He discredited himself, the public is merely talking about it....and the fact that he did not have the proper hunting license for shooting upland birds....lots of hunters in that area have made the same mistake because that tag is a new requirement, not a huge deal, but very entertaining.

It could have been a single gunman, He was a former Marine and very well trained to shoot a rifle. The thing I dont' understand was his escape route and what he did after.I mean if you are going to plan the thing out, It just doesn't make since. I think he was a stooge, setup to take the fall. And may have been setup from the inside. look at the photo of LBJ being sworen in on the plane back to Washingto..That man had a smirkish smile as big as Texas. {he may have known something}

It is, in actuality, not a big deal at all. Being "peppered" happens all the time in bird hunting. It was just an accident.\n\nIt is funny though, listening to some of the questions that the reporters put forward. Things like "What is the reason he has not submitted his resignation?" "Is an accidental shooting like this going to result in criminal charges?" etc.... It is totally laughable. The liberal media is insistent on making any little thing into some reason to bash the administration. What next, some conspiracy theory that Bush ordered Cheney to assasinate the guy?

I don't know how much collateral damage he has caused but I  remember reading about him in one of the Sunday papers and it was a nice story of how a man taught himself to shoot to a very high standard with an old riffle.\nHe was subsequently recruited by the locals to help keep the abusive American solders at bay.\nAnybody who doesn't like the story should try to think what they would do should the shoe be on the other foot.\nFight back or accept your being invaded.

Louisana Purchase was a pretty successful move.\nI'm not sure if it rates as a failure, but the vice president shot and killed Alexander Hamilton in a duel. Thank goodness they don't turn VPs loose with guns anymore.

WASHINGTON, D.C. -- "Dick Cheney was elected to the U.S. House of Representatives from Wyoming. In 1989, he left to become President Bush's Secretary of Defense. During his time in the House, his record was not only pro-gun, it was extremely pro-gun. He was one of only four members to vote against the ban on plastic guns, and one of only 21 members to vote against the ban on cop-killer bullets. Here is a quick look at his record: \n\n"On December 17, 1985, the House voted to ban cop killer bullets, HR 3132, 'The Law Officers Protection Act.' It passed 400-21. Cheney was one of the 21 to oppose the legislation. \n\n"In 1986, Cheney cast a series of votes on the McClure/Volkmer Firearms Owners Protection Act and its amendments. McClure/Volkmer was an effort to gut the Gun Control Act of 1968, and to prevent the ATF from effectively investigating rogue gun dealers and traffickers. Cheney voted against all HCI positions on McClure/Volkmer and its amendments, and voted for final passage of McClure/Volkmer on April 10, 1986. The measure passed by a margin of 292-130. He voted against an amendment (Transportation amendment, 4/9/86) that would have allowed localities to regulate the transportation of handguns within their jurisdiction; and he voted against an amendment (Sales, 4/9/86) that would maintain current law prohibiting the interstate sale of handguns. \n\n"On May 10, 1988, the House voted on HR 4445, 'The Terrorist Firearms Detection Act.' It passed 413-4. This legislation banned the production, importation, sale or delivery of non-detectable firearms made mostly of plastic. Cheney was one of the four votes against this measure. President Reagan signed this bill into law on November 10, 1988. \n\n"On September 15, 1988, the House voted on an amendment by Rep. McCollum to strip the national seven-day waiting period for handgun purchases from the Omnibus Drug Initiative Act of 1988 (HR 5210). Cheney voted for the amendment, which was essentially a vote against an early version of the Brady Bill. It would take five more years, and hundreds of lives lost needlessly, for Congress and a new president to pass the Brady Bill. \n\n"Clearly, the NRA had signoff on Governor Bush's choice of a running mate; there is no other way to account for the choice of one of the most extreme pro-gun legislators of the last twenty years. The NRA has already promised its members that, if Governor Bush is elected, they will be able to 'work right out of [his] office.' Certainly, if they get there, they'll find Vice-President Cheney welcoming them with open arms."

This isn't really an answer...\n\nbut I found it funny that Wittington, at his press conference when he left the hospital, apologized to the VP for what he had gone through.\n\nThe VP shoots someone in the face, and the guy apologizes to the VP.  Wow, that's something.

No one seems to care that they have been fired  at. That innocent drivers could have been hurt. That they have confiscated tons of drugs and weapons that would fall in some very bad hands. Honest people can buy weapons legally through a background check-so who were these guns going too?\n Cost-not doubt about it -it hurts many\n  We could make a reasonable Bill too.\n\nLooks like few want do touch this-its as quite as a library
