On the face of it, it reeks of "special treatment". ……………………..

…………….But it really doesn’t matter–it appears to me that breaks were given in the Cheney situation that wouldn’t have been had a "regular citizen" done the same thing and that bothers me because, more and more, the Bushies seem to consider themselves above the law.

My God Man, he happens to be the Vice President of the United States Of America and I’d hope to hell he’d be given "special treatment"……….. and why would you even think he was just a "regular citizen" …………..?

OK..
Now you got me involved in this debate..

Is he different from any other citizen of the US when things go wrong?
What happens when this lawyer dies because of what Cheney did?..
The lawyer screwed up and it wasnt Cheney’s fault, but we know that is probably a cover up, because we cant trust our own government to tell the truth.

Step 2
Case in point. Why did they wait so long to tell the public.
?
But nevermind that.
(I will just accept that as trying to get the man some first class help)

Someone got shot by accident, (doesnt matter who), someone shot him by accident, (doesnt matter who)–
Man dies!
If it was a "REGULAR CITIZEN" of this lovely run US of A, they would be charged with some type of reckless endangerment/assualt/manslaughter–ETC..

You get the gist of what I am saying.??
So—-
If Whittington dies, SHOULD Cheney get special treatment because he shot a man, BY ACCIDENT, (as we have been told)–we dont know-
Well, yeah..Or just be excused?
They charge people with lesser crimes, and then drop them.

Hell, no..
The priviledges of the government do not extend to exempting "HUMAN BEINGS" from the law.
How would you feel if you were in Whittingtons shoe. I dont even know if I am spelling his name right..
Ok.. I got shot, because I screwed up.. but then I died. DAMN-I hate when that happens….

OK.. well , after all, he is the VP.. oh yeah……cant charge him with anything because he is the VP>>/above the law?
UGH……
Hello?
Who is playing GOD here?
That is what I want to know.
And, yeah, Mr Voss, it seems that I am going on too long myself..
But outraged at the people that think any lawmaker/government official is above the law!
Everyone knows..but we close our eyes everytime it seems.

Sheesh.. Only Steven Segall is "ABOVE THE LAW"
(LMAO)
