It's just another wire story on the Cheney shooting (http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20060217/ap_on_go_pr_wh/cheney_53), but buried in it is this gem from Senator Chuck Hagel:
And Sen. Chuck Hagel (news, bio, voting record) of Nebraska, a Republican and Vietnam war veteran, told The Omaha World-Herald, "If he'd been in the military, he would have learned gun safety."

Ooooh, burn. :D

I thought I was just bitching. The creation of new threads for every minute aspect of this has been getting kind of annoying.

What, I have been creating threads about this? Once again it seems you misuse an idiom.

A friend who knows shotguns tells me Cheney had to be within 40 feet of Whittington to cause the damage he did. A quail and person at 40 feet are very different, and it had to be a high shot as well.

To be fair, Fass, you don't have to deal with that motherf*cker NEARLY as much as we in the U.S. do. It's a good way to let off about the pr*ck. It's not really the oldness of it, either ... it's the ubiquity.

Moddamnit man, aren't you going to give me something to argue with you about instead of agree with you? I had to do that in at least two other threads lately. :D
