Whittington apologizes for the media's psychotic feeding frenzy

How sad. I'm surprised no one in the media tried to tackle him to get him to answer some questions. Whittington, wearing a suit and tie, gave a brief statement and didn't take questions. His voice was a bit raspy, but strong, and he had what appeared to be a line of scarring on his upper right eyelid and scrapes on his neck. "We all assume certain risks in what we do, in what activities we pursue," the 78-year-old Austin attorney said. "Accidents do and will happen." [...] "My family and I are deeply sorry for everything Vice President Cheney and his family have had to deal with," he said. He got shot, and he's apologizing for the out of control crazy behavior of the press. The press (and the far left) really have no shame. Cheney shot him jokes though are still OK.
