Kennedy Pays His Due

So what I'd like to know is: where are all the republicans screaming about preferential treatment now? Patrick Kennedy went to court plead guilty and is now facing the consequences for his actions. The same cannot be said for Dick Cheney who had a few drinks at lunch, shot a man in the face and then refused to talk to police for 14 hours while evidence of his blood alcohol level at the time of the incident drained down the toilet.
