    Pamela Wilford was reportedly to the left of Dick Cheney as they were hunting, Mr. Whittington was to the right in the direction of the sun setting in the west.
    I don't think we will ever get to the bottom of this story. Big question is ,where was Katharine Armstrong when she witnessed the accident, where was she located at that gave her such a better perspective of this incident than those who were closer.

    Bro. James,
    Since this story broke about Cheney's hunting accident it has raised big questions. At first it was no big deal just a small incident of birdshot in the face, neck and chest after all Harry Whittington was shot from 30 yards away what harm could that cause. Then we find out that Ol' Harry suffered a silent heart attack caused by a piece of buckshot near his heart. A lot of things don't add up about this incident. If this was truely a simple hunting accident, why wasn't our Vice President not quick to present his side of the story to the mainstream press.Delaying the accounts of this incident has created a lot of speculation. How much time does one need to tell the truth.

    There is always something that doesn't meet the eye when dealing with the Washington crowd.

    No, Brother James...take it from me the biggest and best informed conspiracy theorist on the board. Cheney shot the man then he and others lied about how it happened, then the media defended and furthered the lies, and the people still believing the press if free gulped it down whole without so much as asking a single question about why there is so many inconsistancies in the stories. ;)

    This is so funny.

    How is reporting it to a local paper NOT releasing it to the mainstream press? The NATIONAL press is all up in arms because they weren't given a special phone call made just for them....but instead a local paper was called.

    Why is it such a big deal? The man (VP Cheney) had just accidentally shot someone.....he wasn't concerned with the media of all things, and Id be more worried if that WAS his first thought.

    there was no lying about it, poncho. Whats "funny" is that this is still being mulled over and wondered about and agitated over.

    You do realize that if the hunting party had not included the VP of the USA that this story would not have even made the local papers? On any page? This is a MINOR hunting accident....we are all extremely glad that Mr. Whittington is ok.

    I just heard him on the radio stating that in whatever activity you participate you take on the risks for that activity. He sounds like a very gracious and kind man, and not at all upset with Mr. Cheney.

    That just it Bapmom , it got reported to a small town paper but when other news agency wanted to ask thier questions they were put on hold or were given the response of "No Comment". And how did this small town paper break the news, they were contacted and were given a version that that Cheney hoped would dispell any doubts but it has only created more doubts.

    well so what? Who said the national press had to be given anything ever? He went on national TV with Britt Hume and did an interview. Why is he required to give a comment to every reporter that comes along?

    And as I remember it, it wasn't Cheney's story that the local paper got....it was a report from the Armstrongs where the incident happened.

    People in the public eye do this all the time....they pick one outlet, give them the story, and then that's it. The national press just thinks they HAVE to be the one that everyone talks to. Well, they are wrong.

    Because Dick Cheney is a public figure and he should be allowed to be asked different questions by different reporters so that there is no doubts about what he is relaying to the public is not true. Dick Cheney has comprimised the integrety of his office by not allowing other reporters to ask thier questions instead they cherry pick Britt Hume to get the story out.

    No lying? The story was he was shot from thirty yards with #7 1/2 shot from a little 28 gauge shotgun. That statement has been proven false. They (Cheney and the press) have stuck to their guns, pun intended and not changed the story to meet the facts. That is a lie!

    Seriously, when there are multiple outlets and multiple people talking about it, all sorts of rumors and things get started and get into the news. Why not wait, give the full details when your mind is at rest, and then just let it go?

    Just let it gooooo......

    Its all right.....there's no conspiracy......

    O.K Bro. James I guess that is a good enough reason to wallow in same mud hole as Kennedy although most loyal Republicans would want our leaders to aspire to have higher standards.

The entire crowd is anti-christ and full of the DEVIL. Voting only encourages them.

    No it's pretty evident. The Vice President lied and the press repeated the lie and I suspect they will all keep repeating the lie until everybody just "let's it go". No big deal the Vice President of the United States shoots a man in what was clearly a hunting accident then lied about it and the press (Fox Neocon News) backs him up, the "liberal" press then runs around setting up strawmen about not reporting it to the "national media" and making stupid statements and everything is cool?

    I'm not surprised about Cheney's lying really or that Fox news would further the lie or even that the liberal press would set up strawmen. What surprises me is that they (Cheney and Armstrong) would lie about how a hunting accident happened. There is more to this story then we are being told.
