I mean, one can understand that he clearly was not thinking straight. Who would, after thinking they'd killed their best friend?"

I see Schieffer is doing his best to move the story to the next plateau.

And why doesn't he know that Whittington is NOT Cheney's 'best friend?'

I have no idea who VP Cheney's best friends are, but why on earth would Cheney think Mr. Whittington had been killed? Schieffer doesn't hunt much, does he?

that he clearly was not thinking straight.

Repeat the lie enough, MSM, and within a few months this will be referred to in just this way. Can't you see Davey Gregory on Matthews talking about something else and saying "But the Vice President has ALWAYS had this problem, such as when he couldn't think straight after the SHOOTING incident."

Headline to appear soon enough: CHENEY NUTS!

Obviously didn't listen to the interview Brit Hume did with the Veep or he would know they were acquaintances.

Man, this guy has no shame! Making stuff up(Cheny thought the guy was dead!) everyone knows is not the facts of the incident! Goes to show that Cheney made the right decision of not going to the old media until after they knew the facts about the guy's condition and his family was notified. I can see it now on CNN had they not withheld the story: "Cheney murdered a lawyer today!"
