Like Father, Rep. Kennedy Rallies to Vote for Climate Bill

snip...
On Friday evening it appeared his son, Rep. Patrick Kennedy, D-R.I., was poised to follow in his father's footsteps by helping House Democrats approve a major climate change and energy bill that teetered on the brink of failure.

Let’s hope he’s not driving himself.

[Typical_Whitey]

LOL intoxicated voter..

What an embarassment our Congress has become...

[Mmogamer]

Maybe they can get a medium to start channel democrats of ages past,,,

[freekitty]

Now we have a loony tune voting.

[Anti-Bubba182]

Maybe he will show up sober! It would be more fun if he staggered in and puked on Pelosi.

[skeeter]

Leaving rehab to vote away our liberty. There’s some powerful symbolism there.

[mockingbyrd]

if you have to go to rehab, you are not qualified to making decisions for the entire country.

[dalereed]

i didn’t think anyone in rehab could ever leave!

[FlingWingFlyer]

I hope he’s not voting under the influence of drugs.

[rovenstinez]

Total sham and a shame.

[demsux]

Need to be drug addled to vote for this pos bill

[retrokitten]

I saw this on Twitter and thought it was a joke.

[Star Traveler]

Wow! They’re that desperate? Or is his vote the *last vote* that carries it over the top?

[yldstrk]

democrat = lush, taxevader, liar

[tflabo]

[Daryl L.Hunter]

[Principled]

There may be some rules about this. This could end up delaying this monster.

[w1andsodidwe]

What an embarassment our Congress has become...

Yep, you always have to prop a Kennedy up so they can vote.

[Digger]

Not too many worse than a Kennedy. If Ted goes on to Heaven then send me to Hell.

[Dysart]

It would be fitting, though, wouldn’t it— an unsound indv casting the deciding vote in favor of this madness?

[shankbear]

We have a lot of loonies voting. This is the Congress of the USA!!!!!! CRAP!!!!! I am hoping that my head explodes.

[Star Traveler]

Yeah, what a legacy for voting the bill in... LOL...

[FlingWingFlyer]

The least they could do is give him a “whiz quiz” to see if he is under the influence of drugs.

[SERKIT]

Did they wheel him in?

[nhwingut]

From Pop & Snort to Cap & Trade

[Right Wing Assault]

Oh! He shouldn’t do that. He might have a relapse. Especially if he inhales the fumes from certain relatives.

[RightOnTheLeftCoast]

Not to worry, I’m sure he’s fully versed and up to speed on the legislation and all its details, and will make a carefully considered, informed vote.

[lonevoice]

Holy cow, I’m speechless.

[Right Wing Assault]

i didn’t think anyone in rehab could ever leave!

The family promised to build The Patrick Kennedy Annex to go along with the other family wings.

[MIchaelTArchangel]

At least he will be on the way to a vote this time.

[Right Wing Assault]

Let’s hope he’s not driving himself.

Well, that might be good. If he drives his car into a river, he might not be able to vote.

[Cinnamon Girl]

Before he gets there, maybe the Republicans can slip a line into the bill about Pat having to stay in rehab for the next twenty years.

[lainie]

Santorum just told Cavuto this thing is dead like a doornail in the senate.

[FlingWingFlyer]

Battling pink elephants one day and then battling the GOP the next. I guess he’s got the ‘sperience.

[Towed_Jumper]

“Well, that might be good. If he drives his car into a river, he might not be able to vote.”

..doesn’t matter..if you’re a Democrat you can still vote even if you’re dead.

[Chode]

like a true kennedy!!! ya just can't make this sh!t up...

[CaptRon]

Wonder if he’ll go out for drinks with the guys later?

[JimSEA]

Leaving rehab to vote away our liberty. There’s some powerful symbolism there.

America in the 21st century. It is time for a national intervention but there are too few rational adults around to pull it off just now.

[RayChuang88]

This Kennedy should NOT be on the House floor for any reason! Not when he's still in rehab.

[FourtySeven]

I mean really!

HOW can his vote be counted as legitimate?!? The man is IN REHAB for goodness sakes; couldn’t we at least give him a sobriety test before he votes?!?

I fully realize once a person comes OUT of rehab they can lead full, productive lives, but he is IN rehab! I think the distinction is important!

[Nam Vet]

He can celebrate with a fifth or two of Cutty Sark.

Nam Vet

[NorwegianViking]

So far, 6 Republicans have voted FOR Cap and Trade—as per CSPAN.

[Honeybunch]

Can they let John Sullivan out of Betty Ford so he can cancel out Kennedy’s vote?

[Jean S]

Wonder if he’ll go out for drinks with the guys later?

It will probably be before. I wonder how long his furlough will last and why is he still in congress?

[Mr. K]

which republican voted for this?????????????

[puppypusher]

IS he sober enough to make an important decision like that?

[True Republican Patriot]

Drat! Give old Patrick 10 minutes alone out of Rehab and he’ll be higher than a Kite flying on his own Iranian Magic carpet smoking his Bong! I figure by the time he gets to the Capital Building, they will have to carry him in on a stretcher and try to get him to sign an X on his spot with a BAL of at least .39999! Prayers are with Patrick for he is a really sick human being:-)

[Bokababe]

We keep hearing about the Democrats “rallying the troops” for it. How about the Republicans rallying the troops to vote against this thing? Or have they just decided to sit on their butts and passively wait it out?

[No Surrender No Retreat]

I whole heartedly agree. One, who is under treatment for substance abuse should not be allowed to vote on anything which will impact on worthy Americans.

The kennedys, classless, useless, unworthy and despicable people from the womb to the tomb.
