Whittington shot a bird and went to look for it in the tall grass, while Cheney and the third hunter walked to another spot and discovered a second covey.

Whittington "came up from behind the vice president and the other hunter and didn't signal them or indicate to them or announce himself," Armstrong said.

"The vice president didn't see him," she continued. "The covey flushed and the vice president picked out a bird and was following it and shot. And by god, Harry was in the line of fire and got peppered pretty good."

If any of you don't understand how it happened, I can try to draw a picture. I'm sure many of you won't let facts or truth get in the way of your hate party. I'd rather go hunting with Cheney than ANY of you.

Quayle hunting? Does Dick have a problem with George Sr.'s V.P.?

Since Whittington is going to be fine, I have to wonder, did Cheney get the quail AND the lawyer or just the lawyer?

Hunters have different ways of announcing themselves when out of sight from the group. Some people cough, some whistle, I like to say "I AM NOT A DEER!" or "DON'T SHOOT ME!" then when they laugh we all know where everyone is.
