It is pretty clear that he should not be prosecuted. It was a hunting
mistake where the victim blamed himself. I see no problem with a short
investigation, a fine for not having the right tag, and letting it go.
What I don't understand is why Cheney didn't just come out right away
and say "Here's what happend, I feel terrible, I hope my friend gets
better." I don't understand why they are dragging out the story by
keeping details under cover.
The one thing I know about public relations is that if you come out
with bad news immediately and up-front, you are generally given a
break. Covering things up only makes them worse.

The exact same thing could have been said about Lewinski. I'm not bringing
Clinton up to say he was worse. But had he nipped it in the bud the second
the story was to break, it could have easily dissipated. Apparently its the
modern politician's SOP. Although not reporting for 24 hrs!= coverup, he
could still have limited potential embarassment by admitting what was going
to come out eventually anyway, apologize in public, and then perhaps make a
self depracating joke about his aim.
