‘IF Osama Bin Laden ever makes it to America, he should take care. US Vice-President ‘Deadeye’ Dick Cheney has been getting his eye in.

‘Dan Quayle called me a what?’

Earlier in the week, we learnt that while on a quail hunt in Texas, Cheney shot one Henry Whittington.

Reports, such as they, speak of an accident. And we have yet to learn whether or not Whittington was wearing a beard and turban at the time of the shooting. We only know that he was shot.

And now, as the Independent reports, things have taken a turn for the worst. Whittington, a 78-year-old lawyer, has suffered a minor heart attack.

It is reported that a birdshot pellet, of the type fired by Cheney, has lodged in part of Whittington’s heart. He is now in intensive care, where he will remain for the next seven days.

And in case Mr Cheney wants to visit him, he may like to note that the patient is the flightless old man with the beady eyes, beak and feathers…’
