Gimme A Break

The septugenarian shot by Vice President Cheney was released from the hospital today. Upon his release, he made a statement that included, "My family and I are deeply sorry for everything Vice President Cheney and his family have had to deal with."

If the guy hadn't just gotten a face full of birdshot, someone ought to slap his face for that one. He got shot, and he's the one who is sorry? What's that about, mea culpa for being between you and your squab? He's acting like a beaten spouse apologizing for getting in the way of a fist. Shouldn't the guy who did the shooting be the one apologizing? Sure, he said it was the worst day of his life, but that's still not "sorry."
