I haven't read the entire thread, but has anyone mentioned that the victim of the shooting was approaching unannounced? Not a smart move when hunting quail.

You say something to me and I reply. That isn't stalking. You clearly have some kind of disconnection with reality.

Um, you seem to have forgotten that you ALSO send me obscene, threatening PRIVATE email, DEMANDING that I stop posting.

Sheesh, talk about a "disconnection with reality", LOOK IN THE MIRROR!

What a delusional hypocrite!

For heaven's sake. It's not like anyone died here.

Petty media... sniffing for a scandal.

You must have missed the presser in front of the hospital this afternoon.

There were some extremely awkward statements issued.

One of the most curious was when the doctor issued a very terse "No comment" in reply to a simple question of whether there'd been any surgery performed on the victim. The doctor shot out an immediate "No comment", and the whole sequence was strange, and tense. It was one of those scenes where you know the reporters immediately made mental notes to the extent of "find out what kind of surgery they performed on him!"

Another "radar-raiser" statement was when the doctor said that MOST of the wounds were "superficial".

"Most" of them are superficial? OK, then what about the REST of them?

Consider the known facts, and do a little logical analysis: He was described as receiving a fairly large part of the "pattern", over an area covering the side of his face, his neck, and his upper torso.

I would really like to be a fly on the wall, and see just what, if anything, is going on with regard to any "issues" concerning "pellets" in proximity to his carotid and/or jugular, both of which are smack dab in the middle of the area that was hit, both of which are soft tissue, and both of which are very close to the surface of the skin -- skin, which in men of that age, tends to be very thin and fragile.

Might explain why he's been in intensive care for the past couple of days -- and remaining there. Might explain why the whole MAJOR news item was buried, hushed-up, and jackhammered into the GO AWAY zone.

It ain't gonna go away, and I think there is a lot more to it than we've been told.


Suffice it to say that as of this afternoon's revelations in the news, I feel more than a tad vindicated. :)

Sorry Don...

Haven't you heard? Physicians always OVER doctor when the patient is high profile. This man is older. The press would be relentless should Whittington leave the hospital with so much as a hang nail. Cheney's people are under pressure to take extreme and profound care. Thus... we have an extended and "cautious" stay at the hospital. (MHO)

That is ALL!


LOL!

"Sorry Jo... "

Oh, and:

"That is ALL!"

(Oh, right, I nearly forgot: SEE THE POST ABOVE THIS ONE! LOL!)

"Over doctor" indeed. They've been sweating bullets (no pun intended) over that "situation" with his heart and the "migrated" pellet. They have had this guy in ICU, they have inspected, xrayed, scanned, and in general scrutinized him, "Bigtime"! You know that THEY knew about that situation.

I guess every generation has to relearn "The Nixon Lesson": It's the COVERUP that gets you in trouble!

Nice work too, several HOURS after his heart attack this morning, holding a presser with Anger McClellan taking potshots at every reporter who was DOING HIS JOB!

They must be calling the plummers (hahahah, no pun intended) every hour or two to clean the BRICKS out of the toilets at the WH, as they wait to see if this guy pulls through or not.

Meanwhile, they send out the poor McClellan to earn his keep, pumping sunshine, ahem, where it does not normally raytrace. What a disgrace.

At least Whittington will walk away from the incident.

Your the delusional one. You call me a stalker but you keep addressing stuff to me. Replying to people is not stalking. There isn't people here jumping out of the shadows and crawling out from under rocks to get you. Your the one that takes news and putts it in his Reality Filter and calls it the truth.

And once again, you pop out of the woodwork to snipe a reply to my post. You MUST be glued to your computer chair! No matter what time I post anything, day or night, you are THERE, and you are on my ass with a snotty retort within nanoseconds!

If that ain't stalking... LOL!

Replying to people is not stalking.

We're not talking about "replying to people", and you know it. We're talking about a pathological need to jump down my throat the instant I post something. You must be sitting there refreshing your screen constantly, 24 hours a day, to see if I've posted anything.

That is beyond creepy.

But NOT as creepy as that obscene email you sent me, in which you ORDERED me to stop posting!

Gotta love the hypocrisy. In public, drape yourself in the flag, "free speech", "everyone" has the right to say what they want, but in PRIVATE you curse like a sailor and DEMAND that I stop posting.

And then, you have the unmitigated gall to tell ME to get on my meds?

LMAO!

You are a hoot. (From a safe distance, of course. Thank God you do not know where I live!)

I guess I'll post this, count to ten, and then go read your next snotty reply, hey? LOL!

Your rant was hysterical. The bricks! LOL!
You stayed up all night preparing for this one.
Admit it.

You're a good guy DJ. Enjoyed it.

Your the one that makes stuff up and puts in so called reality filters and calls it facts. Your the one that claimed I came out from under a rock or from the shadows. Your the one that calls me a stalker but keeps addressing to me. Your nuts and you know it.

Better check to see if Cheney took out life insurance on Whittington (grin).

Remember how the word "Clymer" became part of the lexicon, a "polite" term for a body part that "we're all born with"?

I have a feeling that it probably won't be too long before someone decides that "Cheney" can be used in a similar role -- for a different part, one that only some of us are born with :) The more they keep "stepping on their own..." by protracting the coverups, the more likely it is that some "late night comic" is going to chuckle one out about how "The administration again 'stepped on its Cheney'" (talk about double-entendre-potential, yikes!)

And now, for something different, from the very first time I heard about "the events", I can't stop myself from thinking, "but what happened to the cat?"

Ten "attaboys" to the first person who can provide the correct attribution for that memory-trigger.

And a bonus bowl of milk if you can also point out the real parallel between the two! (Hint: the word "milk" is the hint!)

Fact is, my own health ain't that much worse than "the lawyer's".

Aieeeee!!!!!

I meant to say my own health ain't much BETTER than his, yikes!

You have a caustic wit. I'm laughing my head off.
Seriously, sorry about your heart. Take it easy
today. Relax, breath in. Tomorrow there will be
more dragons to slay.
