At the time, Kennedy claimed he tried several times to swim down to reach Kopechne to no avail. He came under fire for not reporting the incident to authorities until the next morning. In the interim he reportedly made an effort to call a family legal adviser. He waited until the next day to report the incident to the authorities? Why aren't the democrats calling for him to resign as they are Dick Cheney? Lousy hypocrites.

And to expand on that idea, Cheney didn't report the incident immediately because he was busy making sure his victim was receiving the necessary medical care. Teddy, however, was calculating how he'd keep his sorry a** out of jail. Cheney came through and made his accident right, Teddy failed to do so.
Oh, and the comment by the teacher, "Can't you forgive him for what happened so long ago?" What is that trash? Does time make her any less dead? By that logic, when can we forgive Hitler for his crimes?
