[a fool in paradise]

‘The only thing that has been accomplished with this latest story is that the people involved have angered a still-grieving family.’

Much as the late Mary Jo would be thanking dead red Ted Kennedy from her watery grave.

Well, remember the Lewinsky family stood by Slick after he abused their daughter?

The Democrats (and their Intelligence Community allies) have a clear M.O. on how to handle sensitive families (examples include the families of Vince Foster, Mary Jo Kopechne and Lee Harvey Oswald, but there are many others):

(1) Pay for a family attorney to keep everyone talking the official line.

(2) Deposit lots of cash into the relevant accounts.

(3) The stick--remind the families that what happened to the dead family member could happen to them.

(4) Have the attorney yell "grieving family is being harassed" whenever any investigators question the family.

(5) Publish articles/books attacking the "conspiracy theories" in mainstream publications quoting said family members.

They stick to these tactics because _they work_.
