Dick. So Cheney shot a millionaire while on a canned hunt at a private ranch. Salt of the Earth. And then didn't bother to tell anyone until the next day. Cuz really, it's no big deal. The guy was only "sprayed" with "birdshot" and was "knocked silly." Sounds like fun if you ask me! Thankyou sir, may I have another?

Anyway, it was the guy's own fault for sneaking up on Cheney like that. And Mary Matalin assures us that Cheney "was not careless or incautious or violate any of the [rules]. He didn't do anything he wasn't supposed to do." Except, you know, shoot somebody.

I asked my Firearms Safety Correspondent for his reaction. He says, "You should ALWAYS know where everyone is at all time so you don't do something stupid like that."

Obviously, he's just a partisan crank who hates America.
