I'm not a conspiracy theorist but...

there are some gaps:
  • Cheney didn't have the right license for the game he was hunting
  • he has yet to speak publicly of the the incident
  • the press was not informed right away
  • was the VP drunk while hunting? is that why he didn't issue a statement or head a press conference right away?
  • why are White House doctors still attending to the patient?
  • why did the local sherrif call the case closed even while saying he hadn't talked to the victim yet?
  • why all the jokes from the White House itself?
  • why all the "blame the victim" rhetoric?
  • we've seen "the west wing"; when something like this happens, you immediately go to the white house press corps. why did the vp think it best to have a private citizen leak the story to the press? is it perhaps because there were lies being told and having the press sec. tell them would be much more serious than a private citizen?

What could have been a minor blurb is now major news because of the White House's poor communication and extreme ineptitude. Or, perhaps it's a major story because there's something fishy going on... my money's on the drunkeness.
