I tried NOT to post this, but in all fairness how can I not? This past weekend VP Dick Cheney shot a hunting buddy while seeking out quail. No, there is not hint of foul play, the buddy is in stable condition, and everyone agrees it was an accident. But you have to wonder when you hear that no-spring-chicken-with-heart-problems Cheney has shot a 78-year-old friend, whether perhaps someone in the Secret Service (or the political advisors) should have advised him to stay home. After all, an ex-VP with a hunting accident is no news. A current VP is not only "news" but is likely to become a staple of political cartoonists, who can use the image for all kinds of humorous effect.
The only way this could have been worse would be if he had shot DAn Quayle. But then, I am not sure any jokes could be told without everyone groaning in pain.
