When the nation's number one Dick shoots someone -- implanting steel pellets in his chest and face, giving the guy a mild heart attack and sending him to intensive care for a week -- Cheney claims it was one of the worst days of his life! And he naturally expects the victim to pick out the shotgun pellets and express remorse. Which is exactly what the fat cat GOP donor did Friday.
WASHINGTON (AP) - The lawyer shot by Vice President Dick Cheney during a hunting trip was discharged from a hospital on Friday. He told reporters he was sorry for all the trouble Cheney had faced over the past week.
Harry Whittington said, “My family and I are deeply sorry for everything Vice President Cheney and his family have had to deal with.”
President Bush said he was satisfied with Cheney's explanation about the shooting accident. The accident happened on Saturday but was not publicly revealed until the next day.
