CNN just did a live shot of the Harry Whittington press conference in Corpus Christi. It was the first time he has been out to see the public since he was admitted after the vice president SHOT HIM IN THE FACE.
He looked really well, considering, and he should be released soon. He made a few jokes and said he hoped that VP Dick Cheney could focus on more important things. He then added "He isn't here is he? Cuz that mutherfucka is crazy! He'll shoot you in the face."
CNN then switched to the live speech from Cheney to the state legislature in Wyoming. The CNN correspondent was going on and on about all the questions that journalists have been asking him since he shot Whittington IN THE FACE, adding that "He's among friends, here." God, I hope they have metal detectors there.
Cheney gave an impassioned speech, closing with "I'll get you next time Whittington!" He then slammed his spiky metal gauntlet on the podium causing his cat to growl.
The veep will be spending the weekend at his Jacksonhole vacation home. When you've had as many heart attacks as he has, I guess SHOOTING A GUY IN THE FACE really takes a lot out of you.
I'm just trying to fill a void left by The Daily Show since they don't air on Fridays.
Its pretty pathetic when you have to rely on the "comedy" channel to get the truth out of the media.
