Complete Headline: Whatever happened to Camelot? Dishevelled Kennedy clan look less than picture-perfect celebrating Fourth of July on Cape Cod

The Kennedy clan congregated at their Cape Cod estate for a July Fourth family celebration of patriotic proportions.

Participating in a village parade at Hyannisport, where the family's waterfront compound resides, numerous Kennedys dressed up in stars and stripes, wigs and comical presidential-style hats to celebrate Independence Day with vigor.

But the golden era of America's great political dynasty seems to be a distant memory; decades on, the family far from resembles the sartorially picture-perfect images of Jackie and JFK vacationing in the very same Massachusetts spot.


Joan Bennett Kennedy ... Patches Kennedy


Ted Kennedy Jr. ... Ethel Kennedy

Ethel once mentioned to Rose that she had more children, even, than Rose. Rose replied that if she’d known it was a competion, she would have kept on going ;)

Stick a wick in Teddy’s butt & light it. Instant oil lamp with eternal flame.

Listen to his speeches and compare them to more recent Kennedy speeches.

JFK plagiarized Cicero.

I’m surprised that Joan Kennedy is still alive - well, sort of! She used to be a beautiful woman and very talented. Guess that family drove everyone to drink!

Compare JFK’s speeches to Obamadama’s speeches.

“DURING THE WHOLE of a dull, dark, and soundless day in the autumn of the year, when the clouds hung oppressively low in the heavens, I had been passing alone, on horseback, through a singularly dreary tract of country; and at length found myself, as the shades of the evening drew on, within view of the melancholy House of Kennedy.”


I can see this in my mind’s eye...nice touch!

Compare JFK’s speeches to Obamadama’s speeches.

Exactly.JFK issued a challenge to Western apologists of the USSR with the words "let them come to Berlin".OsamaObama would have apologized to the Soviets.JFK stated "will we support *any* friend,oppose *any* foe"....Osama would have transposed "support" and "oppose".
