And the owner of the ranch essentially blaming the victim because he "came up from behind the vice president and the other hunter and didn't signal them or indicate to them or announce himself,".

Talk about "spin". What would have happened if he'd killed this guy?; Monday, February 13, 2006 7:38:00 AM

So true. It's really a shame that Clinton, Boxer, Durbin, Pelosi, Feinstein, Schumer, Kennedy, Kerry and Conyers sat this one out.; Monday, February 13, 2006 10:12:00 AM
ZuZu's Petals said...: So, anonymous, I take it that you buy into the notion that Wittington is responsible for getting himself shot, because he put himself in the line of fire? Don't gun safety courses teach you to make damned sure that no one is in the direction of the bullet you're about to fire...before you ever pull the trigger?

Or like the President not having to conform to FISA laws in getting a warrant to wiretap (even 72 hrs after the fact), the Veep doesn't have to conform to Gun Safety laws?

ZuZu's Petals said...: Oh..I see now. You do believe that Wittington was himself totally responsible for getting shot and Vice President Sneer is above the law. Thanks..... anonymous
