Cheney's Top 10 Reasons

Of course, there's no way I could have let a juicy tidbit like this pass by without sharing.

Dick Cheney's Top 10 Reasons for shooting hunting buddy Harry Whittington:(Author unknown)

10. Sick and tired of Whittington's "Hey, I'm having a heart attack" jokes
9. Pushed over edge by Dixie Chicks and Streisand blasting on pick-up truck stereo
8. Ongoing dispute over whether it's acceptable to torture quail before shooting them
7. Thought he saw Scooter Libby on other side of tree line
6. Bombed out of his gourd on Wild Turkey and Lone Star Beer
5. Companion's ill-advised decision to wear Moveon.org sweatshirt
4. Was trying to impress Jodie Foster
3. Whittington's repeated ribbing that Bush is actually the "real president"
2. Targeting scope on rifle made by Halliburton

And the number one excuse given by Dick Cheney for almost blowing away hunting companion Harry Whittington...

1. Because he's a wartime vice president, damn it

Personally...I figured he did it because Harry heard a big storm was hitting the northeast, and joked aloud that maybe someone should call FEMA so they can ship a bag of salt and a shovel to help with the cleanup.
