Cheney shoots 78-year old lawyer in Texas...



Photo shows the Vice President receiving a gift of a rifle from the NRA. Despite his five deferments during the Vietnam War Cheney has a great fondness for firearms.

Ironically, the 78-old lawyer shot by Cheney in Texas on Saturday was a crony of George W. Bush and had a reputation as a greedy lawyer who has made millions out of real estate. The ranch where the shooting took place was owned by a very wealthy Republican lobbyist. It's a small world!

I'm still wondering why we did not hear about this shooting for 22 hours. Maybe they were concerned that the old guy might die and there would be the possibility of a homicide charge. There's a lot we don't know about this story.

We should hear more of the details over the next few days. Stay tuned!

Update

I've just heard Chris Matthews on MSMBC give his take on the Texas shooting. What he said was enough to convince me that Matthews is FULL OF SHIT. He made Cheney sound like Mother Theresa ...so concerned that he didn't have time to let America know about what happened. Does this guy believe his own BULLSHIT?
