<snip>

But while Hayes said most of the criticism Cheney faces “washes off of him,” he is bothered by the criticism over a hunting accident in which he shot and injured a fellow hunter.

“He does not like people to think of him as not a good outdoorsman,” Haynes said.

Hayes noted that in an interview a year after the accident, Cheney pointed to jokes on late-night television and accounts in the press about the issue.

Hayes quoted Cheney: “It never goes away.”

[phantom power]

:eyes:

Tell it to Gore, Kerry, Cleland...

[canadianbeaver]

3. You never go away either dick wad...

[sakabatou]

4. You shot a guy in the face

You lied about the war
You... I could go one forever.

[Blue Diadem]

5. Not a good outdoorsman..heh..

Dumb fuck with a gun who shot his friend in the face is more like it.

[NYCGirl]

6. All the shit he's done and that's what bothers him most? Strange the way the

mind works sometimes.


:shrug:

17. We Think Alike

That was Exactly my first thought.

This guy is HATED for SOOOOOO MANY Reasons, and this is the one which bothers him most? Not being considered a good outdoorsman?

What a PIECE OF SHIT.

[Virginia Dare]

24. That's the message he's sending..

he doesn't GIVE A SHIT. He's evil and he knows it, and he's proud of it.

[RufusTFirefly]

25. And he's got a kindred spirit in his "boss"

When asked about his greatest moment while in office, the pResident replied:

"I would say the best moment of all was when I caught a 7.5 pound perch in my lake."

[Virginia Dare]

7. He doesn't give a crap if people call him a mass murderer or

a treasonous bastard, he only takes offense at people calling him a bad shot. Typical.

[ProfessorGAC]

15. And Yet. . .

. . . this great white hunter did accidently shoot a guy. So, this makes him a good shot? Huh?

So, like you said, you can call him a criminal, a thief, a liar, but don't call him a bad shot, even if he is one. (I gotta go lay down.)
The Professor

[Virginia Dare]

20. Well, to be fair..

he might be a better shot when he's sober.

[ProfessorGAC]

30. Oh Yeah! I Forgot About That

Good one.

8. Would you like some cheese with that whine?

:eyes:

You deserve every single ounce of contempt that others can possibly have for you.

And then some.

[wtmusic]

9. Great outdoorsmen always shoot their partners in the face

Love to go hunting with you Dick, but I'll be er, busy for a while...
:rofl:

[gratuitous]

10. Golly, Dick

Between the canned hunts, the shooting your pal in the face, and the bribe time with Supreme Court Justices, why would anyone think you weren't a good outdoorsman (whatever in hell that is supposed to mean)?

And after all of his crimes of the last seven years, what bothers him the most are lame jokes oh late night about shooting a man in the face. Not the corruption, not the war-mongering, not the lies, not the subversion of the Constitution, but the jokes about shooting a man in the face. What kind of a man is this Dick Cheney?

[mikeytherat]

11. “He does not like people to think of him as not a good outdoorsman.”

Well, maybe he should not have violated every cardinal rule of gun safety, all the while participating in a canned "hunt."

That infamous day, 'ol Dickless showed just what a non-gun, non-hunting person he really is. No amount of whining can change that fact.

[no_hypocrisy]

12. Cheney can sleep like a baby with the deaths of more than 3,000 American

soldiers in Iraq, but his feelings still can hurt by criticism about his hunting "faux pas".

Warped priorities once again without shame.

[Eurobabe]

13. Americans bothered by Cheney -- it never goes away n/t

[Stinky The Clown]

14. Words fail me. He's un fucking believable.

The most hated man in the history of our country and THIS bothers him?

Fuck you, Dick. Eat shit and die, you motherfucker.

[mikeytherat]

21. That's not really the right thing to say, you know.

The preferred phrase is: "I sincerely hope you choke on shit." Any modifiers beyond this are acceptable, but it is important the recipient understand your fervent desire that he or she not only eat shit, but choke on it in the process.

16. Typical Dick ...

He is not concerned that the "story that won't go away" includes the fact that he shot a friend in the face, and then sat down and had a few drinks, and then dinner, while his friend was being rushed to the hospital in an ambulance in serious, perhaps critical, condition.

All he's concerned with is being thought of as a "poor outdoorsman".

What a f*ckin' loser.

[DefenseLawyer]

18. No matter how many times I shoot someone in the face

people just won't let me hear the end of it. It's always like "Hey, shoot anyone in the face lately?" or "Workin hard or shootin someone in the face?" Ha ha very funny. I feel your pain Dick.

[Virginia Dare]

33. They always apologize to YOU afterwards too, don't they?...n/t

[monmouth]

19. Wants that "macho" image to prevail. What a jerk...n/t

[dkofos]

22. Too bad, you shot him in the face, people are going to laugh. Get over it.

[lpbk2713]

23. It's not so much that he's a bad outdoorsman ...

as it is that he's a bad drunk.

:rofl: :rofl:

[nadinbrzezinski]

26. The horror, he used a weapon to shoot a freind

and he was drunk

That does not make him a good outdorsman,

Sorry dick... you are not

[cuke]

27. It's because there's no way to spin the incompetency of it

As far as the political shit goes, he can spin it, and does, as "history will prove I'm right"

But there's no effin way to spin that shot into a plus

[whistle]

28. Think of it as a DUI, only it is an HUI, both are irresponsible

...and should result in the loss of the license and privileges granted.

[Canuckistanian]

29. Now why would Deadeye Dick say that?

A Vice-President of the United States of America shoots a man and disappears for 12 hours.

These things happen all the time.

[Lucinda]

31. I have to wonder exactly what part of

"You shot a guy in the face" he doesn't "get". That one is going to follow him through the history books. Well, that and "being" Darth Cheney.

[Cha]

32. cheney is such a fuckup..that's the

least of his gawddamn problems.

[Johonny]

34. on the bright side

not nearly as many Cheney drunk driving jokes told since you shot someone in the face.

[PearliePoo2]

35. not a good sportsman dickhead?

You don't have a friggin' clue what a good sportsman is.
You call blasting birds just released from a cage into smithereens being a good sportsman?
All so you can get a knob in your knickers from the carnage?
Birds raised and penned up just so you can obliterate them.
Fits right in with your blood lust for war and more war.
You are one sick fuck.

[Bitwit1234]

36. Gee what an outdoor sportsman....

You take caged birds release them with 50 feet of this sportsman to shoot. Some outdoorsman....

[Buns_of_Fire]

37. So, DICK's got a problem with this? Good!

You're right, DICK -- it'll never go away. And people like me will keep grinding it in your sneering face, as long as your sorry ass infests this planet. Tough.

[Ghost in the Machine]

38. Fuck you, Dick! People who participate in CANNED HUNTS of CAGED ANIMALS

are NOT outdoorsmen. You're just a piece of shit with too much money. I'd like to invite you to come go on a 'hunt' with me. You know, the kind where you park your truck and walk a mile or deeper into the woods. Yes dickhead, I said walk... no 4 wheelers, no shooting from a truck... nothing but hardcore HUNTING. I want to see you bag a 220lb buck, then have to gut it and drag it over a mile out of the woods in rough terrain.

Do you have the guts or integrity for a hunt like that, Dickie Boy?

"Outdoorsman"..... :spray: :rofl:

Oh... did I mention that we'll be using a primative Long Bow?

[hyphenate]

39. Aw, poor ickle Dickie!

:rofl:

The infamous animated account:

[Adsos Letter]

40. Yeah Dick...there are a lot of things that aren't going to "go away"...

like the consequences of your actions while in office...

:puke:
