Seriously?

This man "accidentally" shot another man while quail hunting. The story goes that Dick didn't see the other man who had gone to find a quail he had shot, so he let one rip hitting Harry Whittington (described as a millionaire attorney from Austin) in the face and chest. It was okay, because our vice president travels everywhere with a bevy of medical personnel and has a private ambulance on call (!), and Whittington is going to be all right. It was the first time the two men had been hunting together, brought there by a mutual friend. Now I am not normally a conspiracy theorist, but if I were a reporter, I would surely be checking into Whittington's background to see if he was "conveniently" shot in the face by the dirtiest Dick in America in the hope of getting him out of the way. Hmmm.
