Do The Hustle

by digby

Scottie is making things much worse than they already were. He keeps saying that it took all that time to “gather the facts” and that their priority was to “help the victim.” I guess we’re supposed to believe that Cheney was so busy monitoring the man’s vital signs that he couldn’t pick up as phone and tell anybody what happened until the following morning.

Apparently, it took 12 hours to inform even McClellan that Cheney was the shooter. Both Card and Rove were involved very early. And Big Dick himself is said to have spoken to Armstrong about releasing it to her local paper, contrary to what she already said. A rather crude and bizarre press strategy for this group wouldn’t you say? Why?

McClellan said that he knew about the shooting the evening it happened but didn’t know until the next morning that it was Cheney. Asssuming he’s telling the truth, I think it’s fair to assume that they spent about 12 hours deciding whether Cheney or “someone else” actually fired the gun. I can’t think of any other (believable) reason they would have waited — unless there’s even more to this story than we already know.

And how about that little bit about the deputy down in Texas who was told to back off asking any questions by the Secret Service? What’s up with that?
