So ...

... the general concensus among the liberal blogs is that there's much fishiness in the whole Cheney story. Why did the Secret Service bar local law enforcement from talking to the veep on Saturday? Why were the first public statements made by the woman who owns Armstrong Ranch, rather than by the veep or his spokesweasel? Why did the story stay hushed up until all of the alcohol was out of Cheney's bloodstream 20-something hours after the shooting?

Some nice analysis of the official story and its improbabilities over at Firedoglake. The upshot (pardon the expression): something's not right here.
