At the newscast at the top of the hour, George Weber reported that Teddy Kennedy has cancelled a scheduled book reading for schoolchildren in Brooklyn, NY, where he was to read his A Dogs Eye View of DC because of extensive media interest.
Weber closed the segment by noting that the name of the Senator's dog was named "Splash"...
Tedddy is heading to the Hawk and Dove for a few cocktails with Pat!!
Ted cited sleep medicine as the reason.
I keep hoping against hope that something will finally penetrate the Kennedy armor. I really shouldn't, but I do...
"Weber closed the segment by noting that the name of the Senator's dog was named "Splash"..."
Is the name of his son's dog 'Crash'?
Circle the wagons!!!
Patrick Kennedy had this and one other event on his schedule today, and he cancelled them both, according to FOXNews news scroll. When I read one of the events was a book signing, I figured Patrick had planned to attend one of his Dad's book signings. hee hee
too hungover....
Very good!! LOL
He and Patches are probably late for a vote! Send Patches an email and let him know how you feel about another Kennedy DUI getting swept under the rug. Email the drunk at: patrick.kennedy@mail.house.gov. The sooner all the Kennedys retire to nurse their livers and the Cape and get out of government, the better this country will be.

"Senator Kennedy killed that girl the same as if he put a gun to her head and pulled the trigger" - George Killen ~ State Police Detective - Lieutenant on the scene
Does his son, Patrick, have a dog named Crash?
You can't make this stuff up any funnier than that...... He needs another dog named "Swim" so he can play with "Splash and Swim". Maybe a pet fish named "Mary Joe".
Ted cited sleep medicine as the reason, as recently reported in the media
I filled in the complete DIM talking points for ya.
I stole it from my local radio host (KKOB, Pat Frisch).
The school must have told him they wouldn't provide the fifth of Chivas in the classroom that he demanded.

Gutless wonder.
I had a Chessie named 'Splash' many, many moons ago.
You guys are too funny. Thanks for the laughs.
I'm guessing this is a spoof. Am I alert? The world needs more lerts.
Kennedys will be keeping a low profile the next few days. At least no innocent party drowned in this incident.
Will they instead have a book reading of "There's a liberal under my bed!"
Incredible how despite the enormous contempt even among liberals those clowns receive from the rest of the country
Massachusetts keeps sending them to Washington.
Well, Ah'm Bein' real surprized about that.

We have the same problem in PA with Spector -- I think it's because we haven't found anyone better. Or he has a much bigger war chest than the competition.
I'm speculating that there WAS someone else in the car...and that Pat left the saloon with someone who not only will remain nameless but possibly could become extinct.
Wonder if the original officers at the incident got any of Kennedy on video.......
Gotta get crankin' on the old "hushup" machine, dontcha know...
When will this family stop breeding?
Not any more, I bet.
So unless one of the side effects of those pills is "liquor breath", I'd say the dude was drinking and lying up a storm.
Thank you Teddy for being such a stunning example!! (Of what to do if you're "up a creek"....so to speak.)
Don't they jointly own one "Dash"?
Hmmmm -- Crash, Splash, and Dash -- sounds like the Kennedys
I thought that he was scheduled to read Mary-Jo Sees a Fish.
Has anyone got that photo of that old bat mourning "how that poor Kennedy family has suffered so much"? That cracks me up.
I hope Clinton's dog wasn't a posthumous coauthor.
Too bad Burke Marshall is dead, huh?
;-)
I heard on one of the cables last night that it is, in fact, on video from an outside camera at the Cannon Building.
Not that we'll ever see it.
What about Trash?
time to demand it!
Yeah, like that's gonna happen.
I'm still waiting for the one of Cynthia McKinney!
Kennedy Crashes Car Near Capitol
Rep. Patrick Kennedy (D-R.I.) crashed his car near the U.S. Capitol, and a police official said he appeared intoxicated. Kennedy said he was rushing to cast what he hoped would be a decisive vote on a matter of great importance.
Kennedy issued a statement after a volley of news reports stirred interest in the crash. "It is alleged that I was involved in a traffic accident at First and C Street SE near the U.S. Capitol," Kennedy said in his statement. "It has not been conclusively determined whether I was in the vehicle much
less driving it. There is no evidence that I consumed alcohol prior to the incident. I'm working with my lawyers to find the truth."
Kennedy's father, Senator Ted Kennedy (D-Mass.) asserted that his son was the target of a rightwing witch hunt. "The same administration that is torturing prisoners of war has set its sights on my son," Kennedy complained. "When
police brought him home he had panties on his head and a dog collar around his neck. This is the Bush MO. I am more determined than ever to see this bastard impeached."
A letter written by a Capitol Police officer Greg Baird to Acting Chief Christopher McGaffin said Kennedy appeared to be staggering when he left the vehicle after the 3 a.m. crash. "Representative Kennedy said he was late for a vote," Baird said. "He kept saying he had to vote for Katharine. But the Capitol was dark and no meetings were in session."
Speculation is that it was Katharine McPhee that the young Kennedy was mumbling about. Ms. McPhee is a contestant on the "American Idol" television show.
Kennedy spent time at a drug rehabilitation clinic before he went to Providence College. He has been open about his mental health issues, including the revelation that he has been diagnosed with "moonbat" disorder.

He also didn't show up as scheduled at lunchtime at the 46th and Fifth Barnes & Noble. Some people were disappointed? Hey. He's a senator. He's a Kennedy. Get over it.
