Seeing as they had a bootlegger in their family history that makes since.

Drinking and lying.
Hillary is an honorary Kennedy.

Oh, I dunno. Ted’s been sober for over 6 years now.

And he probably wonders why many people think that the pejorative “drunken Irishman” is redundant.

Stop the presses! A Kennedy with a drinking problem.

The trick with distilling alcohol is to distill low and work your way up to the right temp. Eighth grade chemistry. The rest is an art.

Wow. Not sure what to make of it. I will watch the 60 Minutes interview.
As much as I loathe the Kennedy family, I will tip my hat to him if the book is part of his recovery process and not a PR campanign to rehab his image.

Maybe not. Swimmer Kennedy’s grave has been fenced off due to the Scotch fumes that continue to rise from it to this day.
It attracts the homeless.

Robert Kennedy Jr. has a better excuse. He’s a Skakel as well as a Kennedy.

Does Patches explain how the family came to be so enthusiastic about butchering babies?

What about the Kennedy that went into a tree in Aspen a few years back playing a game of “toss football” while skiing downhill?
Pretty sure alcohol was involved in that one.
To: raccoonradio
Trying to excuse their immorality.
Alcohol abuse is a symptom of unhappiness. It can later turn into a cause, but if the family was so unhappy that they were all drunks, I think the cause was something else.
