Bill Clinton: Cheney should stick to target practice
Bill Clinton: Cheney should stick to target practice
Posted: 04:56 PM ET

From CNN Political Producer Peter Hamby

HERNDON, Virginia (CNN) – Bill Clinton jokingly laughed off a question Wednesday about former Vice President Dick Cheney and his recent claims that the country is less safe under the Obama administration.

"I wish him well," Clinton told CNN while greeting voters after a campaign stop with Virginia gubernatorial candidate Terry McAuliffe. "It's over," he added, apparently a reference to the Bush administration.

"But I do hope he gets some more target practice before he goes out again," Clinton said with a grin before moving along the ropeline.

The former president was alluding, of course, to Cheney's infamous 2006 hunting accident in which he mistakenly fired birdshot into the face of a campaign contributor during a South Texas quail hunt.

4. I can't help but wonder if that was truly an accident or did Cheney's attorney friend;

tell him that torture was illegal while he had the farm raised quail killing blood-lust running through his veins, possibly aided by alcoholic beverages as well?

That was odd with the Sheriff not being allowed to see Dead-eye Dick until the next day and Widdington apologizing for getting shot in the face.
