Wow! Two posts in one day for me, but the RW spin is beginning and for the non-hunters out there I thought I would clarify this.

Being "peppered" with bird shot is not uncommon when hunting, but it ain't what Dick did.

Hunteres call being "peppered" what happens when a guy a hundred yards away from you shoots at a bird flying up high and the shot after reaching its apogee, falls back to earth, under the power of gravity. The shot has no power behind it, and while it stings a little, it is harmless. It is like a baseball coming back to hit you in the head in the outfield, a far cry from a pitcher getting smacked by a line drive.

Cheney fucking shot the guy at 30 paces, well within the killing range of a shotgun. This aint gettin "peppered" folks, it's called getting "BLOWN AWAY!"
