Oh, Boy -- This Is the Stuff Comics Live For

I have good news and bad news for you.

The bad news is, Dick Cheney accidentally shot a fellow hunter.

The good news is, the hunter seems to be doing fine.

The bad news is, the victim was -- a lawyer.

Comics, take it from here.

Running Update:

Uh-oh.  Not funny anymore.  The hunter shot by Cheney has had a mild heart attack, apparently caused by migrating buckshot.  He seems to be doing OK at the moment, but we're observing a joke moratorium.  More details in related post:  Hunter Shot by Cheney Has Minor Heart Attack.

Earlier updates:

Here is the first round of late-night jokes.

Here are some jokes from National Review Online.  Scott Adams, creator of Dilbert, also has a couple of funny one-liners.

Michelle Malkin predicts that the "Dems will exploit this accident to smear Cheney as incapable of being trusted, weak of mind, etc. The resignation rumors will fly again. And the biography of a man who has served this country so well and so honorably for so many years will be overshadowed by a single, ill-fated hunting mishap."  They wouldn't do that, would they?

Hyscience reminds us of an 11th-hour hunting photo op by Democrat darling John Kerry.

4-Block World quickly weighs in with a comparison of the misadventures of Dick Cheney and Ted Kennedy.

Don Surber rounds up some of the absurdity.  Expose the Left has more on the media frenzy.

Just a little buckshot!
This is great, and it is another behind the scenes plan, by the BushMaker,
Karl Rove, and this is his best plan yet.
This is just what America needs to flush out the terrorists and democrats.
You watch....this will mean more to the Republicans than the Liberals.
It is hilarious.
The press will be adding their little snide remarks about gun carrying conservatives, and will stop at nothing to get to Bush by way of Cheney.
I am not going to write about the obvious, because some liberal wingnut may be reading this. This is a beautiful plan, and the libs won't have a clue.
They will be busy, watch out, they think they have won, and they are being played like a violin...or a fine fiddle.
MARK MY WORDS.....this is the whipped creme on top of the hot fudge sundae.
THIS IS BRILLIANT!!!!!
