Cheney cops to it

I don't like Dick Cheney, but will admit that it was a good thing for him to take responsibility for the shooting.

"Cheney described it as 'one of the worst days of my life' and rejected the notion that Whittington bears any responsibility. 'I'm the guy who pulled the trigger and shot my friend,' Cheney said."


He does admit to having beer at lunch, something that even Tucker Carlson says is unacceptable, period. He also notes that Cheney's heart medication might have accentuated even one beer, and having been on dozen's of hunts, Carlson stated that alcohol simply wasn't allowed.

In addition, Cheney took another shot at the media, saying that the uproar over how the story was released was simply that the Washington media felt excluded. His contempt for the American people or any criticism is evident, and part of the reason that he is so unpopular.
