    Heck, I also caught a bit that claimed BO admin officials requested that 37 consular employees sign confidentiality agreements after the attack & 4 murders!

    Oh now Davy, don't be like that. It's a very nice thread and I'm sure we're all glad you started it.

    I'm sure you are.
    By the way, who is this Lemmerduer anyhow? I know it's a regular who's posting under a second ID...it's gotta be either you or thermos.

    Oh, you know this, do you? And how do you know this? And have you reported it to our Leader along with your documentation? I suppose we could have a sock puppet among us but I think it's more likely that you're just put out because yet another newer member is making fun of you guys and your big red letter bs. At any rate it's not me. Or..... maybe... it is.

    Dunno, the posts just seem to have that same self-important tone as those of yours & thermos. Maybe I'm wrong...doesn't really matter, I guess...you lefties do seem to be interchangeable & when you've take on one far left whack job, you've taken on them all.

    What's the charge for shooting someone accidentally in the face, anyway? Or was Dick just defending the country from enemies? if so, why didn't he just hire some Sandinistas to do it for him? :confused:

    Ohhhhhh, I am so enjoying being ignored LOL

    I doubt anyone is puposely ignoring you...probably more a case of your irrelevant, nonsensical posts simply not meriting a reply.

    For a true accident? Typically nothing, I would imagine. Unless there were contributing factors...such as there possibly being alcohol involved in the accident, fleeing the scene of the accident, not reporting the accident, if negligence or recklessness contributed to the accident, etc. Then you would think some pretty serious charges might result. Especially if the accident resulted in a death.

    In the 1950's and 1960's there certainly were drunk driving laws but drunk driving certainly wasn't the big deal it is today. The problem with this trolling thread is that it tries to see drunk driving through today's attitudes. It wasn't until the 1980's that organizations like MADD actually raised awareness of drunken driving. I guess when trolling is the real purpose of a thread, things like context are irrelevant.

    Driving drunk isn't really the focus of Kennedy's incident. Leaving the woman to die alone in a submerged car while he swam to freedom is the reason he's pegged as the filthy scumbag he was. Good riddance to his sorry, bloated, filthy fat ass.

    Yeah, I was being sarcastic, I'd call it "Negligent discharge of a firearm, resulting in injury", myself. I did find this though:
    The incident, via Wikipedia:

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dick_Cheney_hunting_incident

    The sheriff chose to clear Dick of any criminal wrong-doing.

    Power and privilege allows that to happen a tad bit more often than being poor does. That was sarcasm too lol...as the accident is clearly negligence resulting in injury, but no charges were filed. No mention of the prosecutor in this case, not because there wasn't a case to be prosecuted, but because it was the VP and he received "special" treatment.

    That said, Biden could get away with it too under the same circumstances, but that's my point: Power and privilege allowed Dick to escape justice just as power and privilege allowed Ted to escape justice. Neither is right, but that's the system we use. I was merely attempting to point that out, to people who tend to be more hypocritical than I am.

    You're right. It is pure trolling.

    How come the records are sealed anyway?


    IT HAPPENED in the dark, after a thunderstorm, more than 36 years ago and she has never spoken about it.

    But according to her friends it remains the key event which has shaped the character of Texas First Lady Laura Bush.

    When she was 17 years old, the future wife of Republican presidential candidate George W. Bush, then known as
    Laura Welch, made a mistake that killed her boyfriend.

    On Nov. 5, 1963, at 8 p.m., Laura was driving east on Farm Road 868 in her hometown of Midland en route
    to a party. At a dangerous intersection, she allegedly failed to see Mike Douglas, also 17, heading south on State Road 369.

    Laura, traveling with her best friend Judy Dykes and allegedly chatting about clothes, collided with Douglas' Jeep,
    which was doorless. He was thrown from the vehicle and broke his neck, dying instantly.

    "She didn't see him, he didn't see her," says Dan Harris, who also was cruising Midland that night, with
    Laura's close friend Beverly Girdley.

    "It was a terrible accident."

    The Midland City authorities have declined to release the full accident report. They have referred Freedom of Information
    requests for release of the document to the attorney general of Texas, who has until May 15 to decide if he will make the report public.

    SOURCES in Midland's City Hall say they have heard Texas Gov. George W. Bush will use his influence to make sure the report is never released.

    "People here don't want that wound reopened," says Sandra Wegner, the Midland City chief librarian. "It was a nightmare for the whole town."

    An abbreviated version of the report concluded neither Douglas nor Laura could be blamed for the accident.

    But friends say she has never fully recovered from the tragedy.

    You ask for justice for an accident in which no blame can be placed on either party? What kind of justice are you after?

    Obviously, any kind of justice to benefit his side - truth be damned. Just look at Martin, Benghazi, IRS, Laughner, Black Panthers. etc.

    To me it seems IQless1 had the "fair and balanced" response. AKA the truth and reality. Take it how you will.
