re resp:36: Cars should be treated just as carefully.  We wink off car 
accidents, but they are usually caused by carelessness.

I am not making excuses for the vice president.  He made a stupid 
mistake, in my opinion according to what I have seen about the 
incident.  It does not make him an evil person or entitle anyone to 
single him out for exceptionally harsh treatment.  It does not speak 
particularly well of him.  It could have cost someone their life and 
that itself makes it a pretty serious matter (equal in that way to any 
car accident).  He certainly should have known better.

re resp:37: I saw speculation here -- but nowhere else, not even 
speculation -- that Cheney might have been drinking and that could have 
contributed to the accident.  It was completely invented here.  It sure 
would be damning if it were true, but there is no reason at all to 
beleive that it is.
