Here is a copy of the original affidavits relating to Vice President Dick Cheney's shooting accident. They come via USA Today and the Corpus Christi Caller-Times.

They are .pdf copies of the original affidavits filed by the Kenedy County Sheriff's Department. Click here to see them.

You'll notice that all involved agree this was an accident. No quantities of alcohol were consumed. That the Sheriff's department was notified almost immediately, etc. So much for the conspiracy theories and tirades about a 'cover up'.

For his part, Harry Whittington is apologetic about all the fuss that has been caused by being shot and looks forward to hunting with Cheney again in the future. Pssst: Tragedy + Time = Comedy. This is funny. I give Conservatives permission to laugh at this. It's okay.

3 It could have been worse! Cheney could have struck him while backing out of the driveway in an SUV! Just imagine what would be said and talked about then!

4 No, no, no. It was the Louisiana mafia that had ties in Dallas. Have you ever even been to the Grassy Knoll Rusty? I have and let me tell you, there are still members of the Louisiana mafia there just in case the ghost of JFK comes strolling by oh Commerce Street.
