Weber closed the segment by noting that the name of the Senator's dog was named "Splash"...

I keep hoping against hope that something will finally penetrate the Kennedy armor. I really shouldn't, but I do...

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

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.

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".

Kennedys will be keeping a low profile the next few days. At least no innocent party drowned in this incident.

Truly amazing, the networks are really pushing the Ambian defense, doing segments on sleepwalking ect.

It's truly hilarious, NO such stories would be running if he was a Republican.

It reminds me of Clinton, NO stories on sexual harassment, but tons of stories on how lying is normal, and Ken Starr being a Christian pervert.

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.

There's also not the least bit indication of whether someone else was in the car or not.

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.

There's are two boxes indicating that he was impaired. One pertained to alcohol. Since no test was given, it would have been the "smell test" that gave him away (together with the statement by the lady at the saloon.

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.)

I have stepchildren ages 27 and 30 and get insights into people that age and younger through them and some of their even younger friends and relatives. Amazing insight #1 here is that "the Kennedy's" mean nothing to them. All the Camelot BS has worn off - and they are not going to continue to get the electoral free pass (outside of Massachusetts, at least) as in prior years/generations. It's time for someone to rather impolitely take on Ted Kennedy and call him out for what he is.

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.

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.
