The next stupid moronic thing the left is whining about is "why hasn't Cheney gone to visit Whittington in the hospital?!" or "Why did Cheney wait an hour to get Whittington to the hospital, why didn't he drive him there immediately?!" To the first, I ask these people: do you know what it TAKES to move the VICE PRESIDENT anywhere?! You can't just waltz on down to St. Peter Memorial with a cavalcade of 12 SUV's and walk right in as the VP. No, what would have had to happen in order to allow the Vice President to go to a public hospital is thus: First, the Secret Service would have to drive ahead, cordon off the hospital and surrounding city blocks. Then they'd have to call out the phone company and set up secure phone lines. Next, the ER would have to be totally closed and no traffic would be allowed in or out of the hospital. Then and only then could the VP drive up and get Whittington into the ER. I can gaurantee you that Cheney has a greater understanding of what's happening from his ranch than if he were at the hospital, inconviencing everyone and sittin in the ER waiting room like everyone else.
Also, as to why Cheney waited so long to get his friend out: Cheney has certain medical conditions and as such always always has a few doctors in his entourage. It's not like Cheney hit Whittington and left him in the field to bleed while he finished hunting. Cheney's doctors were already working on Whittington by the time they got him to the local hospital, so all these allegations are simply a matter of not knowing what really happened.
Finally, as to this whole conspiracy theory of Cheney being drunk... He had one beer 6 hours before the accident at lunch and the police reports all state that alcohol was not involved. I've heard all the kook ideas on this but the only way any of them make sense is if every single person involved was lying, and that includes the doctors at the hospital, Whittington, Cheney, the Secret Service and the local Sheriff.
In the end, none of this crap makes any difference. We're somehow supposed to believe that the mainstream media somehow really actually cares about the healt of Mr. Whittington. Yeah right! They're just out for Cheney's blood (and by default, Bush's too). Whenever Whittington, a 78-year-old, DOES happen to die, be it 2 months or 10 years from now, it'll inevitably be blamed on Cheney. This whole piece of crap is a charade and it all deflects the attention of the country from what really matters: Militant Islam and Homeland Security. Hear about the new Saddam tapes talking about his WMDs? Or how about the fact that arabians own and control 6 major ports on US soil? Wouldn't want to talk about anything that means anything would we? Instead, we have wall-to-wall coverage about a non-fatal, accidental hunting incident just so some liberal asses can take a shot at an administration they don't like. Talk about playing the fiddle while Rome burns... We're all screwed if something doesn't change and that's the truth.

There are others that may disagree, but the people who needed to know knew when they were supposed to. I seriously hope that the American public realizes the desperation of the media to side against him, when really he is not at fault for anything.
A phrase that shall probably never leave my lips again, but: "Rock on, Mr. Cheney." Way to be assertive and try to resolve things in the best manner possible.

When my love swears that she is made of truth, I do believe her...
Though I know she lies.
It was at night, and the press makes it look like he wanted a lackey's head to mount over his fireplace.
Don't they have better things to do, like, say, report about Libby?

To be fair though, Bush has said some pretty funny things. But there are more pressing matters. Leave the exaggerations and the fun-making to the blogs and the tabloids.

I mean... I've stopped really watching anything that deals with uneeded political ranting... or should I say non-political ranting...
What happened happened... it could happen to anyone for that matter...
People just need to pull that stick out of their butts...

I have MIGHTY EYEBROW power!!!
Other than that, the media in the sates here love anything that makes Bush's administration look bad in any way and they've even been known to just make things up if they can't actually find something... Either way it shows unprofessionalism and immaturity. I agree with you that there are much more pressing matters... In fact almost ANYthing can be classified as "a much more pressing matter" when compared to this story.
