I’ll wager that that special place is designed to hold a number of Kennedys

I'd call that special place, "Camelot from Hell"

The PT 109 can be found, but they just can’t seem to find the 69 Olds.

Kennedy got away with murder and the great Boston Project is finished after billions and billions of dollars.

Read "Senatorial Privlege" by Leo Damore.

The bridge was quite narrow (one lane) and short. It had a couple of 2 x 10's as a guard rail. Apparently, Kennedy was fleeing a summer constable (who was not in pursuit, and had no arrest or summons authority) when he hit the narrow wooden bridge at over 60 mph.

***Read “Senatorial Privlege” by Leo Damore. ***

I have and I also have driven over many a one lane bridge in the middle of the night with no problems.

**Kopechne suffocated.**

I believe you ar correct. The car was upside down and she was in an air bubble trapped in the car. She lingered a long time till the air ran out then suffocated while Teddy agonized on how to save his political career.

Okay, try it after half a dozen drinks, doing 70 mph fleeing an imaginary cop with a 28 year old woman sitting next to you and your drunk wife seething alone at home.

Hope you don't think I'm defending EMK or the Massachusetts electorate. His electability is explained by perverse tribalism and misplaced sentimentality.

"My vote for Chutzpah of the Year 2003 Award. “If only he hadn’t killed her she’d have been a real fan.” Apparently Mr. Pierce was serious. I don’t think these people live on the same planet as I do, and if they do I wish they didn’t."

Ironically this quote is probably accurate. Most of Bill Clinton's victims still voted for the guy and are staunch democrats. I'm betting Kopechne's parents still voted for Kennedy. Yeah, they may have killed our daughter, but at least he isn't a REPUBLICAN.

That neckbrace amazed me.

I vaguely recall reading that he had a neckbrace from an earlier plane crash.

Maybe he recycled it. Lots of savvy sales and marketing people file away things to form a "connection".

Why not pull out the neckbrace?

Oh, and running joke is that since Ted has been in so many accidents on so many modes of transportation, the only one left is a train, and if you see him getting on the same train as you, get off.

I read somewhere that the Kopechnes still supported Ted for most of their life but in their later years finally realized what happened and changed their attitude. Maybe they read the book by Damore.

Kopechne drowned while trapped in Kennedy’s submerged car off Chappaquiddick Island in July 1969

Another victim of "Kennedy waterboarding".

“***The voters in Mass are the dumbest humans on this planet.***And I still won’t vote for someone from Mass for Prez.”

Stupid leftist Mass dumkoffs who keep electing Ted (and I recall he couldn’t fly a plane before he couldn’t drive a car) also elected MR Gov. This Mass electorate has not elected a conservative as Governor either.

You just know that the Left, and Kennedy crotch-kissers, lurk this site. They bark and yelp like junkyard dogs when a VP accidentally shoots and wounds a hunting companion, but they find no problems with a liberal ne'er-do-well (from a family whose wealth came from bootlegging and other criminal efforts) leaving the scene of an accident and letting a one night stand drown/suffocate in a car he drunkenly drove off the road.

Just like millions of babies ripped screaming from their mothers wombs, Kopechne's death is meaningless to them. It is the cult of personality that moves them. They have no soul, these Leftist sycophants. If Hildebeast or Hussein Obama ripped the heart from a puppy while it lay submissive under their hand, they'd rationalize it as for the greater good of the movement. If Barney Frank were videotaped raping and sodomizing a 10 yr old, they'd rationalize it.

The Left has been described as suffering from mental illness. I'd beg to differ. It "suffers" from demonic possession. The Left is quite probably either the vanguard of the foretold Anti-Christ or it is, collectively, the Biblical Anti-Christ come to fulfill the prophesied last war of Armageddon.
