Just now on Hardball Ron Reagan brought up and interesting aspect of this story that hasn't really taken legs yet.
There's another aspect to this too Chris, and that is whether the VP was interviewed by local law enforcement, or whether the Secret Service intervened in that. If you or I shoot somebody, accidentally or not, we're going to talk to the cops about that and they're going to ask us a few questions. Among them, 'have you been drinking'? And apparantly, at least from what we're hearing now, they weren't allowed to do that to the VP.
There are plenty of us cynical enough around here to suspect a larger coverup by Cheney's people. But, I have to say I hadn't considered this possibility yet. Just another crime potentially committed by this VP? A drunken accidental shooting? If I'm a local DA, I think I'd have a few questions as to why there was not an immediate interrogation...
