Anyone watching the press conference about the accidental shooting in Texas?

Posted on 02/13/2006 9:39:43 AM PST by tsmith130

What keeps McCellan from taking off his shoe and throwing it at these people?! I'd last a nanosecond in that job. They keep badgering him about the EXACT time of everything. They're pissing over a few hours!

You're not discussing it. That's the problem.

Please. Just go your own way. I won't respond to you again, since I'm not the least bit interested in anything you say.

Thanks for the welcome. The references to Kennedy weren't my idea, they started with #12 in this thread and have been in several of the other threads, too. My point has been that that's not a comparison I think Mr Cheney's people would want brought up; it furthers the conspiracy theories.

You're being absurd in claiming that it isn't a signficant and newsworthy story. As long as you do such, there is little to discuss.

WHY? It was an ACCIDENT!!

So was a Turkish jet sliding off a runway at JFK. So was that 81-car pileup in Michigan. Should the media not report those, either?

Thanks for the correction. After hearing the histrionics by the press today, anything was possible. Bunch of loonies.

Not that "far" if your intent was to suggest they were hiding something.

That's a very helpful chart. I found one but couldn't figure out how to post it ~

Ah, so now you are divining my intent.

I am criticizing their decision to wait so long for whatever reason they had. It was stupid and it feeds into the nutbars. I don't think Cheney did anything worse than be a stupid hunter along with his cohorts who apparently did some stupid stuff themselves. And have never implied otherwise, your claims to the contrary.

I did no worse than you have on this very thread - I technically did not divine your intent - I said IF your intent was to suggest they were hiding something, THEN it is not that "far".

That exchange is NOT in the press briefing transcript released by the White House.

Sorry frankjr - I see now that was the gaggle you were quoting.

Are you really dense enough to compare an airplane crash and a multiple vehicle incident with injuries (it was 86 cars, btw) to a minor hunting accident involving only a couple or people?

You're the one who said if it was an accident, it shouldn't be reported.

Meanwhile, everyone in this country and in much of the world knows who Dick Cheney is.

90% of people in this country could not tell you the name of the VP.

Yes, I would get real nasty with the Democrat Party press and that is why they won't let me out of the computer. ; )

They want to scandalize it, and they are doing everything they can to do so. (Let them. They are making fools of themselves in the process, as this is only proving their propensity to contrive a scandal from any event. This occurance is obviously just an accident.)

If Mrs. Bush slipped on a puddle of water in her bathroom, the MSM would try to blame it on GWBush for not having mopped the floor clean after his shower. They are the biased MSM, and they want to smear Bush every chance they get.

"This was an accident BUT if they want to imply it was done on purpose, they have a right to say that Dick did not do it correctly. "

If they didn't witness the event, they have NO right to say he didn't do it correctly. Careful speculation is the very most they can do. None of us know exactly what happened and to suggest otherwise could bring about some slander suits, depending on the actual event.

I am SOoooo tired of the MSM Bull!

Reverse the roles. Let's say Al Gore injured someone in an accident and it wasn't reported for 24 hours. Would you have been so cavalier about that?

Yes. Wanna know why? Cause I was never one of the obsessed haters that seized on everything as a cudgel with which to pound the heads of my political opponents. In short, because there are more important issues facing the country, both then and now.

David Gregory married to an attorney who worked for JANET RENO's justice department during the Clinton administration!

Gregory is a horse's *ss! And he proves it everyday!


How long did it take the Clinton's to 'inform' the press of Vince Foster's 'suicide'?!!! I don't remember any of them acting like this over it!
