I agree with you--Cheney's highest priority was to ensure that his companion got the care he needed, and that included respecting his privacy to the extent that he could. His second priority was to look inside himself, admit his mistakes, and learn from them. Notifying the MSM was a distant third on the list at best.

With regard to stage management, Cheney did have an obligation not to bungle his interaction with the media. And he didn't bungle anything. Waiting made a lot of sense, as did initial disclosure to a regional paper and his appearance with Brit. I know this whole thing was planned--no contingency was on the books for accidentally shooting someone. But, I'm in awe with how well it was handled. The MSM is still in a tizzy, but who cares--other than them? As long as they and the 'Rats are acting as juveniles in public this whole tragic event is working to the benefit of the 'Icans. 'Tis truly a thing of beauty.

Did it ever cross Matthews' mind that the President of the United States had more important things to do Saturday night and Sunday morning than worrying about his VP's personal events?

I saw Hardball tonight; it was a LOT worse than this.

He seems obsessed.

His big thing now is that this has "highlighted" the rift between Bush and Cheney.

Last night he said that not holding a press conference was Cheney's way of telling Bush who's boss.

"When Allen answered "not necessarily," Matthews cut him off: "don't say that. Help me out here!"

Who bothers watching that ass-clown anymore, anyway?

The MSM is literally at war with this administration.

Just glad FOXNEWS is out there...and thinking that without the internet, President Bush would be Nixonized by now.

He just wishes that Bush and Cheney were on the outs...I guess so that if impeachment time comes, Cheney will "turn" on Bush....

I just think that Bush treats Cheney like an adult and an equal...and doesn't feel like he has to speak for him...or against him, if the MSM asks him to.

Don't those people have anything better to talk about?

Sure, they'll return to Gitmo torture, illegal spying, no WMD's, and all the standard Lib fare.

Ah...jeez, WBAP Radio, here in Dallas, an ABC NEWS affiliate is having a "special" about the Cheney shooting...

And Ann Compton just said that there is a lot of strain in the White House because Cheney left McClellan and Bush to answer questions...

BTW.. Mark Halperin will be involved in this...he used to be here in Dallas...was the ABC guy that told the news people to lean to Kerry prior to the election...in that infamous e-mail...

and whose father, is a MAJOR player in the progressive movement.

This is SO tilted against Cheney.

Literally! I hadn't thought of it that way till reading your post. On the positive side, the MSM is losing badly!

"You should be very grateful...we are warriors for FR, danggit!! "

And please don't think I don't appreciate your sacrifice, not to mention admire your strong stomach--serially.
