Another ridiculous comment...sorry, this bs will not have legs. Right-wingers, who represent the core of the Cheney's long-declining political constituency, are already cringing, fearful that their hero's misadventure will become the metaphor by which his tenure will be remembered.

They sought help immediately (or at least this isn't in question so far as I know, unlike say, as in Ted Kennedy's Chappaquiddick), and while the time-frame isn't exactly specified, the article says "shortly" after the incident itself, his secret service guys called the authorities. There, obligation fulfilled? I should think. As I was saying, I think you are thinking of making mountains out of molehills, perhaps less than molehills so far as is known. Kennedy's Chappaquiddick....now that was a bit of a mountain by comparison...and illustrative of a double standard should someone think it less egregious rather than far more, for some inexplicable reason.
