Cheney pulled the trigger, no doubt.
"Nothing is this administration's fault"? How does the administration come into this? This is a hunting accident.

Yes, Yes, and Yes.
This is just another example, like we really need one, of the institutional arrogance typical of the entire Bush Administration.
Cheney did not have a hunting licence, Cheney refused to meet with local police investigating a shooting, Cheney withheld the information on this as long as possible.
This is only a story because of the delay. If Cheney had cooperated with Police and issued a statement right off the bat apologizing and sending the guy his best wishes for a speedy recovery then this would have been the non-story it should have been but Cheney had to play by his rules where truth and information are what HE thinks they should be.
