Mary Jo Kopechne could not be reached for comment.
You've been reading James Taranto.....
LOL
Not with me.
Yep. The only thing funnier than his Kennedy comments are the ones he makes about John Kerry*
* The French-looking Senator who served in Vietnam.
* The French-looking Senator who, by the way, served in Vietnam.
Thanks for the correction.
Yeah, I read him too. < laughing >
Really? Ted the Swimmer isn't gonna live forever. No point having loathing for a guy who is dead.
I've noticed a concerted effort by the left lately to rehabilitate the Swimmer by downplaying Chapaquiddick. It's one of the sorriest spectacles I've seen, frankly - but, then again, the left has shown time and time again that it doesn't have any shame.
The GOP should be drafting Taranto to run for something, ANYthing, although it occurs to me that if Karl Rove were to suddenly decide to hire a protege', Taranto could easily fill the bill.
Now about Fat Teddy?
Politically, Teddy is to America what the herpes virus was to the "free love" movement of the 60's and 70's.
Good post, and for once I find myself agreeing with a Phoenix writer. I do in fact focus every last ounce of hate at the clintons. Fat Boy just isn't worth it. BFT may be an unfortunate Massachusetts tradition, but his performance during the Alito hearings is a perfect example of how this drunken, braindead, old buffoon drives voters to the Republicans by being an embarrassment to the Democrats.
I will never forget when my dad finished the last page of Teddy Bare, btw. White with rage--something I had never seen before or since--he handed me the book. Read this, he said.
The haughty, French-looking Massachusetts Democrat, who by the way served in Vietnam.
Speaking of which, go here for a list of numerous different variations that Taranto has had over the years. Funny guy.
If Ted Kennedy drove a Volkswagen, he'd be President today
It floats.
The way our body is built, we'd be surprised if it didn't. The sheet of flat steel that goes underneath every Volkswagen keeps out water, as well as dirt and salt and other nasty things that can eat away at the underside of a car. So it's watertight at the bottom. And everybody knows it's easier to shut the door on a Volkswagen after you've rolled down the window a little.
That proves it's practically airtight on top. If it was a boat, we could call it the Water Bug. But it's not a boat, it's a car.
And, like Mary Jo Kopechne, it's only 99 and 44/100 percent pure. So it won't stay afloat forever. Just long enough. Poor Teddy. If he'd been smart enough to buy a Volkswagen, he never would have gotten into hot water.

I went to dinner a few weeks ago with a couple of moon-bats and they loathed Kennedy. Probably just as much as Bush.
Politics is a never ending game of education and reeducation. We may remember Ted Kennedy is a national disgrace but many Democrats are totally unaware of his history, or that of his family for that matter. Then again, after Bill Clinton and Hillary it appears there is no behavior beneath the Democrat party.
I still like your comment. Teddy is the gift that keeps on giving no matter what we do to cure it.
Thank you! I stand corrected. Also, for the link.
It's just become such a given that it's not discussed any more than the fact that the sun rises in the east.
It just is.
