1) He crashed his car
2) It was the fault of the drugs, man
3) He is being pilloried by the VRWC
4) He calls upon democrats and "Great thinkers" everywhere to support him as he is the victim of the VRWC
5) Uncle Ted's buying the next round...

I want his cell phone records to see who he called from the car after the wreck but before the officer started asking questions.

Speaking of records, Wifey was listening to Rush, who said he got emailed by a " highly reliable source" that there's a paper trail....bar tab, in possession of a D.C. waitress.

I'll bet the farm that he isn't planning on resigning.

My guess is that he'll deliver political threats prior to any announcement, and that the announcement might be:


1. Betty Ford clinic...have compassion on poor Kennedy alcohol genes that I have.

2. It's all a lie and nobody died, so shut up.

That's one toke over the line......

Howlin, you shoulda been around back in the late '50s when Papa Joe was selling (Matress) Jack Kennedy to America. Every other issue of Look, Life and the Saturday Evening Post had a suck up article. IMO, they were the first political organization to perfect and practice "spin."

Maybe papa Ted sold his soul to Rove in order to get a news story to kick Patches off the front page.

I wonder what lie he's going to come out with now??

How long are we going to allow the elected officials to run the country as their own personal fiefdom?? Are we their servants??????

Scenario #1: He admits a problem with substance abuse. Asks for understanding. He's a Kennedy. Bad luck seems to follow his family. *tears* *sigh* He has decided to seek help. Must now get back to doing the work of the American people.

Scenario #2: Pleads the Fifth on draining the fifth. A frightened waitess from the Hawk and Dove is brought forward to say she mistook another sot for Kennedy. Says she has never seen him before in her life as Senator Edward Kennedy stands behind her jingling a set of car keys and making gurgling sounds.

Scenario #3: Fights back tears as he admits to drinking to alleviate the pain he feels because of the War in Iraq, Cindy Sheehan, New Orleans, guest workers and toenail fungus; besides that Karl Rove was driving and this is a a vast right wing conspiracy as someone obviously has drugged his drugs.

Leaves the podium shouting, "Do you f@#$ing people know who I am?

You need to pick a word that couldn't possibly mean "hired help."

"Slave" works.

LOL. Uncharacteristically bad timing on the part of his handlers. In light of the Goss resignation he could have just layed low for a few days and polished up his act.

Another Kennedy trait....waiting OVER 24hours from the time of the crime to actually address it.
