Bubbas don't shoot Bubbas

Well, we've seen it all now. Dick Cheney shoots a hunting bubba and the owner of the land says that Cheney was the victim of the shooting incident because the the guy that he shot didn't follow quail hunting "protocol". She said he didn't announce his presence.

My goodness, in Wisconsin, our hunter safety courses teach muzzle control and that you have to know what's in front of your target and what's behind it. Of course, in Texas the rules are probably different. Either way, it seems strange that it took such a long time for the mainstream media to report the shooting of Cheney's bubba. Cheney's folks were probably busy faxing talking points to Republican talk radio to put his "shot" into context. I can't wait to hear it at the coffee shop tomorrow.
