I think it goes without saying that the whole Cheney Shot Somebody story just maybe the greatest story like ever. I mean, who else in politics would shoot somebody?

First off, as someone with a humorous bent, the story just has so many possible ways to go that it makes the head hurt. Do you go pop-cultural and make a joke about how the twelve hour delay was only because when they couldn't bury the body and when they opened the trunk, it turned out the guy was still alive? Do you go political and say that Cheney shot the guy there so he didn't have to shoot the guy here?

Which is all too easy because the story is so funny you don't even have to tell jokes. Just the fact that you're reading stories with lines such as "we don't really have a process in place for when the Vice President shoots somebody." I actually watched Scarborough Country today and all four panelists could barely make it through the discussion without cracking up (Pat Buchanan thinks this thing is hilarious).

Just tremendous.
