Congratulations to Vice President Dick Cheney, the first and probably only winner of the Indignant Citizen’s Aaron Burr Award for Patriotic Marksmanship.

The Veep on Saturday accidentally shot a 78-year-old companion in the face while hunting quail in Texas . This, of course, being the Bush White House, Cheney didn’t even manage to kill the guy; he just injured the old man by pumping him with a few birdshot pellets. He visited the fellow in the hospital and then returned to Washington.

Way to go, Dick.
