Just when you didn't think the Dems could be any more criminal and wretched comes this word. Per Fox, Patterson ready to appoint Carolyn Schlossberg to the US Senate without her first meeting the legal requirements that she disclose her finances and taxes. Reportedly, this is because Carolyn has "special circumstances," whatever they are. The Princess reportedly will release what info she feels is appropriate after she is sworn in as a Senator.
Now, just imagine if this were a Republican instead of Kennedy Royalty.
WHERE are some conservative lawyers willing to fight this?? Oh, silly me!
wtf!! this is like pro athletes wanting the money up front before they perform....why does everyone think they are so special..??...what has she even done besides be a kennedy to deserve this seat...??...sick...just sick...
What price Camelot?!
It’s Caroline.
How much does Patterson make on this deal?
(oh, I guess I’m not suppose to inquire)
THAT’S why her financial records will not be released until AFTER she is appointed (which she is required to do anyway if she is a U.S. Senator).
The “transaction” needs to have already occurred or some sharp-eyed accountant type might ask where such a large sum disappeared to.
Essentially, he's been told that if he values his political career beyond the present, he needs to play ball with the Obama-Kennedy crowd. Princess Caroline in the senate as Teddy's legacy is the payoff for Teddy having thrown his endorsement to Obama very early during the primaries.
On Fox News this morning, they reported that Patterson has been told that if he expects "support" for his election bid in 2010, he needs to anoint -- ooops, appoint -- Princess Caroline.
In Illinois, this sort of thing is called "selling a senate seat," and the governor can go to jail for it. In New York, Boston and DC, it's called "political horsetrading," and the media gushes violets and roses all over the president-elect and his Kennedy cronies for resurrecting "Camelot."
Now where's my barf bag when I need it...
Perhaps what they are trying to deflect attention from is that Camelot Barbie is a dimwitted, inbred, blue-nosed underachiever who has never really had anything approximating a job, and has no “real” money.
I’m just sayin’....
Good points. Apparently Blago is just an idiot.
Come over here sweetie, no need to obey any of those laws we’ve passed for the common folk. Those are for little people.
I always that that to be a princess, one has to be somewhat attractive.
You're kidding, right? Better luck finding a virgin cheerleader...
She is somewhat attractive.
Laz would hit it...
Actually, it’s Frau Schlossberg, granddaughter of Nazi sympathizers.
*shrug* Before you know it the trains will be running on time here, too.
Let's be clear who Caroline's Nazi sympathizer grandpa was: Grandpa Joe Kennedy.
Unless Black Jack Bouvier was a Nazi sympathizer too?
Then there is the line of Jackie Kennedy replica jewelry, which I would assume Carolyn has a copyright to?
We could start there with her financial statement.

Good grief, the presidential candidates don't have to meet legal requirements, why should some lowly senator? We're about to have our first illegal immigrant president and they're worried about "Carolyn"?
With that family, who can ever tell?
