If she had lived, Mary Jo Kopechne would be 62 years old. Through his tireless work as a legislator, Edward Kennedy would have brought comfort to her in her old age.
Charles Pierce in a January 5 Boston Globe Magazine article. Kopechne drowned while trapped in Kennedys submerged car off Chappaquiddick Island in July 1969, an accident Kennedy did not report for several hours.
It was not an accident - it was murder ...

May Mrs. Gwen Kopechne rest in peace. I’m sure that it was very difficult in her remaining years living with the knowledge that her beautiful daughter, Mary Jo, was murdered by Ted Kennedy.
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.

Kennedy accidentally forgot to act like a decent human being, and accidentally left her to drown so he could save himself from bad PR.
We can rest assured that there’s a special place in hell waiting for Teddy K.In fact,given the records of various Kennedy males (women paralyzed,raped,murdered,an under-age girl diddled,heroin possession,etc) I’ll wager that that special place is designed to hold a number of Kennedys.
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.
Could a description of Mary Jo Kopechne's death in a car accident possibly not mention Ted Kennedy till five paragraphs later?
Yes.
That's how the Times Leader, the Wilkes Barre, PA-based newspaper reported the passing away at age 89 of Mary Kopechne's mother Gwen, a local resident.
Here's the opening paragraph [emphasis added]:
A mother who lost her daughter in a well-publicized automobile accident in Massachusetts nearly 39 years ago was remembered Saturday as a caring woman who loved talking, drinking coffee and making pancakes for breakfast...
In fairness to the obituary writer, he wanted the obituary to memorialize Mrs. Kopechne, not her daughter’s homicide. I will never forgive or forget what Ted Kennedy did to her daughter, but I hope we can allow Mary Jo’s mother an identity separate from that horrible man.
Just bumping this thread since Chappaquiddick Ted is in the news today... (1/28/08)
