Patrick Kennedy warns of Tea Party “rampage” if SCOTUS upholds Obamacare

Patrick Kennedy, a former representative from Rhode Island and son of the late Ted Kennedy, warned in a fundraising email for Congressional Democrats that if the U.S. Supreme Court upholds President Obama’s health care law, then “dangerous Tea Party extremists will go on a rampage.”

The fundraising email was sent out Wednesday afternoon, to raise money for the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee’s “Health Care Rapid Response Fund” ahead of Thursday morning’s expected ruling by the Supreme Court on the constitutionality of the health care law.

“My father, Ted Kennedy, spent his entire political career fighting tooth and nail for universal health care,” the email reads.

It promises that, “If the Court strikes down the law, Democrats will need to redouble our efforts, fighting to ensure universal health care that’s affordable and accessible to every American is a reality.” But predicts, “If the Court upholds the law, dangerous Tea Party extremists will go on a rampage.”

Hey, cut him some slack. He’s the natural product of decades of cousins marrying cousins, brothers marrying sisters, etc. so as to not delute the royal bloodline. If they keep this up, we’ll need to build a Tower of London to confine them all.

[Servant of the Cross]

His father spent an entire lifetime getting drunk, and managed to kill at least one woman in that process.

Obligatory post ... Mary Jo Kopechne was unavailable for comment.

A rampage? Like, showing up at the polls and voting kind of rampage?

I wuz just fixin' to say...Hey, Patches, you sniveling drunk...there's going to be a rampage on the first Tuesday after the first Monday in November regardless of any Supreme Court decision tomorrow. All tomorrow's decision portends is how many of your political stripe will have their heads on the chopping block. Could be "a whole bunch," or it could be "every last one of you bastards."

Looks like what little may be left of your valueless political life is really starting to suck right about now.

I’m gonna drive my Oldsmobile off a bridge!

An aircraft carrier works too ....

Uh, we’ll cut off his dope?

[Safrguns]

If Obamacare is upheld, the real rampage will come from the occupiers after the biggest mass job loss since the great depression, and worse than it ever has been for 3 years.

The only thread left in our economic situation has been the hope that Obamacare would be overturned or repealed.

If Obamacare is upheld by the courts, don’t hold your breath waiting for Romney to sign the repeal bill.

Our country will be over.

No Patrick.....You’re father was a fat drunk murderer so go away....

Dang. Ya beat me!

[Mountain Mary]

I don’t know how to post pix but does anyone have a photo of Patrick’s mug shot when he was incarcerated for drunk driving? Just drunk would do also.

[MIchaelTArchangel]

He’s a rich Masshole living in Roe-DYE-lin. That means he has rotted his brain on prescription drugs. Anyone who can understand him needs to see a psychiatrist.

[tiki]

It was the target rhetoric, donchaknow, it caused people to kill because they “targeted” politicians.

[Buckeye McFrog]

sounds like he has brain damage from sniffing Citgo gasoline...

[NoGrayZone]

“If the Court upholds the law, dangerous Tea Party extremists will go on a rampage.”

OMG, he is SO correct. Look at all the "rampages" we have already had. Arrests, murders, rapes, looting, pooing in public streets, etc. We are a BAD BUNCH I tell ya!

[ConorMacNessa]

Almost 43 years later and no justice for Mary Jo! The Swimmer should have been in prison rather than in office!

[Buckeye McFrog]

Actually I enjoy tweaking my Democrat neighbors by introducing myself as “your friendly neighborhood right-wing extremist”.

[gleeaikin]

I certainly hope you are joking.

Every time a Kennedy speaks, my tagline gets its wings.

“My father, Ted Kennedy, spent his entire political career fighting tooth and nail for universal health care,” the email reads.

Yes, Patrick, he did, and we Tea Partiers showed just how we felt about that during our first March on Washington in 2009.

It's my understanding that Obamacare never really passed Congress on a real vote, it was only 'deemed' passed. If that's the case, then the whole legislation should be declared illegitimate. Since no one actually SAW the legislation, there was no way to mobilize against it like we did with Hillarycare, and I think Obama planned it that way.

I SO hope and pray that SCOTUS pulls the whole thing down! And I don't want Republicans to think they have to come up with an 'alternative' to Obamacare, no matter what the media says.

[davius]

"I certainly hope you are joking."

Yes, of course. We actually decided to throw water bombs at the fire station.

Imagine...little old ladies, burning cookies everywhere!

a.n.a.r.c.h.y!

[KarlInOhio]

If the merely angry Tea Party rally results in a public park that is cleaner after we leave than when we came, what will a Tea Party rampage result in? A reroofed shelter building and a new swing set?

“dangerous Tea Party extremists will go on a rampage.”

OMG!! A rampage no less. LOL!

[jimfree]

PJ lives up to his father’s standard for slander.

[mykroar]

I thought Obamacare wasn’t Universal health care. So it is this week>? I’m so confused.

[Eric in the Ozarks]

Bring out the adult beverages.
Patty’s in town.

[mykroar]

Just make sure they turn over their forks.

[kabar]

We will go on a rampage if it is upheld.

[History Repeats]

Hey Kennedy, why don’t you go take a drive on a bridge over a very deep river.

“My father, Ted Kennedy, spent his entire political career fighting tooth and nail for universal health care,” the email reads.

Tooth and nail. The parts not effected by the use and abuse of alcohol.

What? Does he think that we are all Amish?

[fhayek]

I would find very little to party about if Obamacare is upheld.

We should hope that he is right.

[rusty millet]

Just a quiet, steely rampage at the ballot box.

[MasterGunner01]

Is Patches Kennedy drunk, doing recreational drugs, or both. You cannot fix stupid.

[Pox]

I sincerely hope that the Second American Revolution does begin if this travesty is upheld, and I will enjoy watching the marxists receive their comeuppance.

Not like those peaceful OWS crowds...

Duh, I think he is saying that his Daddy Teddy Bare was a lifelong left-wing extremist.

[RedWhiteBlue]

The Tea Party does their “rampaging” at the ballot box.

[Nebr FAL owner]

Why should we here on FR have any idea what Mr. Kennedy is talking about when it is obvious the he is absolutely clueless.

worthless sot & excuse of a human being.
