"Had You Been Drinking?"

Somebody finally asks the right questions: When were the local law enforcement officers notified and what did their investigation reveal?

CBS News White House correspondent Peter Maer reports Texas authorities are complaining that the Secret Service barred them from speaking to Cheney after the incident. Kenedy County Texas Sheriffs Lt. Juan Guzman said deputies first learned of the shooting when an ambulance was called.

But the Secret Service told a different story, saying agents had informed the local sheriff of the shooting about an hour after it happened and that the vice president had been interviewed about the accident by local authorities on Sunday morning, CBS News White House correspondent Bill Plante reports.


Apparently the special treatment afforded Dick in Kenedy County not only includes interviewing him the day after he shot someone but also reeling in Lt. Guzman's initial statements to the press.

  • This is the most bizarre story since Clinton blew out his knee at 2 in the morning at Greg Norman's place.

    As I recall, the media were screaming bloody murder that Clinton was drunk.

    Someone outta compare the commentary of Drudge, Rush, Coulter, et al on the two incidents.

  • Since Greg Norman is probably at least as rich as Mr. Whittington, I probably owe the Vice President an apology for accusing him of drinking, err hanging out, only with millionaires. Seems like the habit crosses parties. I guess the difference is Norman wasn't lobbying Clinton for a tax cut, but just talking about pussy.

    In any event, sorry Dick.

    Kenedy County? How ironic...

  • Please provide evidence that he was in fact, drinking, or is this your cute little way of trying insinuate that he was, without accusing him of same.

    Little wonder why the left continues to get whipped at the ballot box.

  • You will note that the Sheriff apparently was notified between 7:50 and 8:00, and they arranged to meet the following morning.

    Why is it that this screams cover up to the moonbats?
