Cheney Pellet Strikes The Heart

Good morning,

It is not every day a person can learn a critical life lesson, or finally get to truly see himself, because of his own ineptitude. Last Saturday, Dick Cheney, accidently filled a hunting friend of his with bird pellet while going after quail. Yesterday, Cheney finally broke his silence in an interview with Britt Hume at Fox News.

Mr. Cheney said:
"The image of him falling is something I'll never ever be able to get out of my mind," Cheney said. "I fired, and there's Harry falling. It was, I'd have to say, one of the worst days of my life at that moment."

Did Mr. Cheney learn a lesson? How did it feel to see the fallout of the power you yield as you strive recklessly for a greater goal?

I hope that Mr. Cheney keeps that image alive and well in his mind for the rest of his life. That is as close he has or will probably ever come to the image of someone being blasted right before him by his own hand. I want him to feel GUILT.

I want Mr. Cheney to keep the image of his friend down, bloodied, unconcious, and then suffering in a hospital, and permanent wounds. I want those little irretrieveable bird pellets to remain as a reminder of the destruction Cheney himself has caused upon so many people.... intentionally, particulairly those people in Iraq.

You see, Mr. Cheney puts the pellets in the hearts of SO many people, but does he understand that? Because of Cheney (The brainiac behind the Iraq invasion), 30,000+ Iraqis have died, and those who have survived are living with the severe fallout and trauma of those killed before them. Just like you, Mr. Cheney, hundreds of thousands have witnessed mortality, blood and death. Just like you Cheney, thousands and thousand have had friends seriously hurt, and just like your friend Cheney, it is unclear for so many injured, what the future may hold.

Can you take yourself outside your self to apologize to all those innocent people who are not your personal quail hunting friends for *intentionally* putting bullets in their hearts? You go along unapologetically putting bullets into the hearts of the Iraqi citizens. To you, Iraqi citizens are no more important than the innocent quail falling from the sky. Iraqi citizens, in fact, to you are nothing more than the collateral damage as a result of your greater scheme which will in all likelihood amount to no more than a one course dinner of shot up bird meat. I suggest than when you sit down to relish your grand dinner that you be careful what you chew, because that bird shot can get lodged in your own throat.

Have a nice day.
