Bush Approves Cheney's Handling of Mishap

http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20060216/ap_on_go_pr_wh/cheney

WASHINGTON - President Bush said Thursday he was satisfied with Vice President Dick Cheney's explanation about his shooting accident, and Texas authorities said they had closed their investigation without filing any charges.

"I thought the vice president handled the issue just fine," the president said in his first public comments on Saturday's accident. "I thought his explanation yesterday was a powerful explanation."

Bush said it was "a deeply traumatic moment" for Cheney "and obviously it was a tragic moment for Harry Whittington." He said that the shooting "profoundly affected the vice president."

.... Imagine a Democratic Pres and VP right now.... :puke:

1. Whittington's family should be pissed--

this endorsement of minimizing what happened is disgusting. What we're all supposed to sigh for relief now--that IT has spoken?

Just fine. Heckuva job. What problems?

I think they've reclocated him to a smaller bubble.

6. Why is the Chimp's approval necessary?

Personally, I don't give a damn whether Bush is satisfied or not.

Of course, Bush is an expert on explaining things, so....................

7. ...the shooting "profoundly affected the vice president."

Oh, I'll bet. It enraged him to have to explain himself to both the media (in the shoddy disguise of Faux) and the public. How DARE we question the mighty Darth!
