<p>I wonder how much of the story we are getting even now, and how much the administration is regulating the information coming out of the hospital…</p>
<p>So those pellets can move around in the body, from what I have heard</p>
<p>If the VP was so pure and innocent in all this why did he not talk to the authouroties</p>
<p>Too bad he never has to answer any questions under oath</p>
<p>This really is a tragedy. I’m sure all involved feel just horrible, especially the man who was shot! If he doesn’t make it, God forbid, will the VP be charged?</p>
<p>I think we are even lucky to know what is going on!!! </p>
<p>THe President lies about getting you know what and he his impeached, this guy shots a man and isn’t straight about it and its well, OPPS</p>
<p>still wondering how much they were drinking, and if they weren’t, why the subtreifuge</p>
<p>Guns don’t shoot people, Dick Cheney shoots people.</p>
<p>If this poor man dies, which I pray he does not, the news will be about all the jokes told before, and not focus on hunting or Cheney</p>
<p>If he lives, well, he is gonna get a BIG BONUS</p>
<p>and now you know why there was no announcement…and there will be no charges. Oh and where are those secret service officers now?</p>
<p>Wow, Cheney is going on TV to talk about the incident with tough questions…no wait it is on FOX TV…nevermind, we won’t hear must truth there</p>
<p>Oh yeah, the gossip and rumor mills are turning for an another reason for the delay in reporting. the plot thickens…I for one hope they are true, but since it is a rumor at this point, I will wait to share</p>
<p>Zeus claims that they waited 20 hours to report becuase no one cares when a lawyer is shot. 
(Of course, that could be his way of harassing me.)</p>
<p>Copying from the other Cheney thread;
Time for a poll:</p>
<p>If you are a friend of Cheney and he asks you to go hunting with him, do you:</p>
<p>(a) find a reason - any reason - to honorably decline?
or
(b) say “Sure, ol’ buddy” because from now on he’ll be the most careful hunter there ever was?</p>
<p>Please cast your votes. No drinking during voting, or vice versa.</p>
<p>You mean if I ** have a Wild Turkey** that I cannot vote for a Wild Turkey???</p>
<p>Oky, I have a legitimate question that I have tried to find an answer for, so maybe all you hunters can answer for me:</p>
<p>What kind of damage does birdshot do at 100feet or so, does it penitrate clothing, ie, hunting vests, could it put out an eye. For it to go through skin on the chest, and into the bloodstream, how forcefull is the shot?</p>
<p>Do the quails fly? The man was shot at chest and face level, in pictures of hunters that are posted who are tracking quail, the guns are pointed high in the air…do the birds fly 6 feet off the ground generally and is it normal to shoot that low?</p>
<p>I understand the shot can stay in the body with no real long term lead contamination or whatever, but why is it not removed…like say wood might be?</p>
<p>I have shot guns, but never shot animals, so am unclear how quail hunting goes</p>
<p>And according to friends who have hunted, to swing back around to shot behind you is not safe, is that true, especially if you are with other hunters</p>
<p>And what is the “normal” procedure with regards to any kind of gun accident in Texas, ie a shooting in the home?</p>
<p>At this ranch, are these birds “wild” birds, or what?</p>
<p>Thanks, and these questions are legitimate because I want to know about stuff.</p>
<p>
**</p>
<p>Ground dwelling fowl that hide in grasses and brush…they flap and fluster but not fly on wing as a sparrow for example. Quail run fast…they scatter and run for cover.</p>
<p>Just saw a web article entitled "Was Cheney Hiding His Lewinsky?

<p>His hunting partner was Pamela Willeford, ambassador to Switzerland… </p>
<p>Hats off to someone here who tipped me off last nite on this… no specific name, but now it is out in the open…wonder what Lynn thinks???</p>
<p>Lynn is eating Quail eggs on Uni somewhere for lunch and doesn’t want to hear about your story…pour her some more Saki.</p>
<p>I am not a hunter, cgm, but according to an article in our paper’s sports section (written by a hunter), quail fly very low just over the top of the grass. And, this writer said it is impressed upon them in hunter safety classes, that you NEVER turn to shoot a bird if it flies behind you, due to safety concerns. You just let those go.</p>
<p>wise men let them go other men blast before they think.</p>
<p>Maybe the attorney was flying through the air when he was shot.</p>
<p>no if the bottom feeder theory is applied he was rustling in the brush or in the BUSH for something. hehehe I wonder which bush that was???</p>
