Bush Team PR Nightmare

Tell you what, out of the criticisms I have of the Bush team, the main one is that their PR skills are terrible. I've favored many things done by the Bush admin but at times, they are oblivious to their image. To a large extent, I'm fine with that, you shouldn't dictate your actions by what what you perceive as others opinions. But the public really doesn't need to know about Cheneys hunting expeditions. Now they will, considering he accidentally shot a friend.
I am in favor of hunters and I love hearing that a guy like Cheney partakes in the activity. But with this story, it just gives Bush critics more fodder, makes them say "why was he hunting, he should have been working." And a story like this will make the critics say "they is just indicative of the Bush administration."
Cheney has all the right in the world to actually have leisure time but once again, the Bush team gives their enemies reason to criticize them. And the way the media likes to blow things out of proportion, this incident will likely lead to criticism of the war, tax cuts, Hurricane Katrina, Halliburton, you name it. This may have been a tragic accident but it makes Cheney look foolish and opens a Pandoras Box for the left.
