The quails have come home to roost

I have a couple of questions for David Gregory and the other reporters outraged that they weren't notified in advance that the Vice-President was going to accidentally shoot one of his quail-hunting buddies: where were you on the eve of the Iraq war? Where were you ater 9-11 when the Bush administration was scaring the bejeesus out of citizens? Save your righteous indignation for a more pressing charge. Mark R Levin's got it right:

Yes, Cheney is a public man so his actions are public -- but in this case, they are public and unimportant. David Gregory and his band of pampered colleagues may be offended but many of us are not. Sorry, I don't see any great offense or principle on display here. And I dare say most Americans are tuning out. The vice president is safe, his lawyer friend is okay, and nothing tawdry occurred. Now, back to the war
