When the Veep Shoots Someone

The whole Dick Cheney shooting someone is not to surprising. He doesn't like to follow the rules, whether in selling the war or hunting for quail and therefore the fact that he shot someone isn't surprising. On Hardball tonight, they are making a big deal that Bush/Rove etc. (the president's office) has not forced Cheney to reveal fully what happened. That doesn't surprise me at all because throughout the Bush administration, Cheney has been obsessed over secrecy. It has been the president's office that has been concerned with managing the media and what information the public receives. But, as long as the president's people do not compel Cheney to explain what happened, the story will continue to create problems for the administration's credibility.
