...late night TV is going to have a field-day with this one.
Sounds like the bystander was hit 30 yards out with a 28 gauge. Since they were hunting quail, I'm betting he was using 7 shot or higher. That's a fair amount of shot that the docs are going to have to dig out...
It's nice to hear the guy is fine, but I can keep from cracking up over this every time I hear it mentioned. I don't know how the press is keeping a straight face. 
He's goona have to clean that bird good! Nothin worse than bitin inta buckshot!(Sorry Rick, don't get excited)
That WAS funny.
I can hardly wait for the late night crowd to get hold of this... SNL should have a good sketch next weekend too...
Does anyone remember on SNL the Claudine Longet (SP!) Invitational Ski Shooting Competition? Great skit, 70's I think.

Anybody watching the press conference on this? McClellan is getting ripped up for taking so long to get the news out.

Yeah, like the White House is going to rush to the podium to talk about an Executive branch "friendly fire" incident...

I can't believe I missed it! He was always a tool. I would have loved to see that.

So I heard. Stupid WH press corps.
Birdshot at 30yds from a 28gauge...I wouldn't want to stand downrange for that, but at the same time, I bet some of us have been in BB wars that were more intense. I told my wife when the news first broke that the guy probably looked like he'd caught chicken pox. If he weren't 78, he'd have been be home the next day.

I wonder if Viagra is thinking about signing Cheney up as a spokesman?
Think about it; you've got a guy named "Dick" that has an apparent "ready, FIRE, aim" issue, or someone that gets a touch pre-mature "trigger happy" with his piece and ends up nailing his hunting partner...
Perfect marketing material!
Perhaps Ang Lee could get a script built around this for "Brokeback Ranch"?

Exactly, I'm sure many people here have been hit in the head with BBs from closer range than that (like me getting shot from like 5 feet away  ) But it's cool, I shot my friend in the neck from about 60 yards while he was running (even though I was aiming for the gonads  )
