Cheney's Got A Gun


Let me say that I have heard just about enough about Cheney, Whittington and his bad case of chicken pox and the press' tabloid like way of blowing this whole situation out of proportion. The state of Texas had 30 "reported" hunting accidents last year and 2 hunting accident related deaths. I did not know this until about 5 minutes ago when I decided to Google it. I didn't know of even one hunting accident in the state of Texas. I was sure they had happened, it is always just a matter of time before someone gets hurt with a bunch of guys running around with guns. There's always going to be one numb skull that doesn't quite comprehend the meaning of "cross fire". But now some VP that is even more forgettable than Vice President Walter Mondale is being drug though the mud as if he had stalked Whittington down and shot him point blank with intent. This is as criminal as the time when you turned a corner in a hall somewhere and collided with the other unlucky soul that was around that corner coming your direction. It was an accident. The VP did exactly what you and I would have done. He and his buddy's picked the guy up and took him to the Hospital. He wasn't whisked away in a black helicopter to some super secret facility in Area 51. If this had happened to you, would it even cross your mind to hurry up and put together a press conference to announce what had happened. NO ! In fact, if some suggested it, you'd look at them like they were crazy and ask them "Who would care?"

I agree, he is the VP and resides currently under Spotlight 1, but having been someone in the spotlight for much of my life, I know more than some may realize how he is just a normal guy. He pours his Wheaties out of the same box we do, he bangs his head on cabinet doors that have been left open and yes, somewhere out there is someone that is going to scream if they have to wash another pair of his underwear that has skidmarks.

That's all I have to say about that. I wasn't even going to say that much, but I heard this Parody this morning on the radio and just had to laugh until I cried.

"Cheney's Got A Gun" (new Aerosmith remake)


Cheney's Got A Gun
His whole world's come undone
He was lookin' straight at the sun
What did that lawyer do
What did he put you through

Cheney's Got A Gun
Cheney's Got A Gun
long media day's just begun
Now Rita Cosby is on the run
Tell me now it's untrue
What did that geezer do

He shot a little bitty quail
The man has got to be insane
They say the spell that he was under
The Rove and the thunder
Knew that someone had to stop the rain

Run away, run away from the pain Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Run away, run away from the pain Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Run away, run away, run, run away

Cheney's Got A Gun
Cheney's Got A Gun
his dog day's just begun
Now the press is on the run
What did that lawyer do
It's Halliburton's last I.O.U.

He had to take him down easy
And put a pellet in his face
He said 'cause nobody believes me
The man was such a geezer
He ain't never gonna be the same

Run away, run away from the pain Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Run away, run away, run, run away Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Run away, run away, run, run away

Cheney's Got A Gun
Cheney's Got A Gun
Cheney's Got A Gun
Everybody better run

Cheney's Got A Gun
his SNL skit has just begun
Now everybody's on the run (Honey, honey what's your problem)
'Cause Cheney'sGot A Gun (Tell me it ain't right)
Cheney's Got A Gun (Was it Rove just robbin')
his dog day's just begun (That made you scream at night)

Cheney's Got A Gun
the slow news day's just begun
Now everybody's on the run
Cheney's Got A Gun

Love your post!

I think the situation with ex VP Al Gore in Saudi Arabia was much more newsworthy than VP Dick Cheney's human frailty.

But, that's the media for ya'
