“This was a very private party,” Katharine Armstrong told NRO. “These were very close, old, old friends. We entertained the vice president because he’s been our friend for many years. It’s always extremely personal and extremely private.” Armstrong said that after the shooting, her top concern — and that of the vice president — was that the victim, Texas lawyer Harry Whittington, receive medical care. “We were completely and totally focused on making sure Harry was okay,” Armstrong told NRO. “The vice president was focused on it.”

These words should be the focus of this unfortunate incident; yet, it seems as though the sharks are beginning to circle. Scott McClellan is being “mauled” as we speak because of the delay and lapse between the accident and the time it was disclosed to the media.

Espose the Left has video and pieces of transcript from the episode.

REPORTER: Well surely they immediately knew the VPOTUS shot someone 

MCCLELLAN: And you know what the immediate response was? To make sure he was getting the medical care. You may know that, but people who are listening need to hear that to. The Vice President went over to him and it was getting to him and taking care of him. That’s what the first priority always ought to be. Now, I know it is important to inform the media and I have told you that it is important to get that information as quickly as possible.
