UK Daily Mail ^ | July 5, 2018 | Jerry Oppenheimer

Wearing a green jacket that read 'I really do care,' Ethel Kennedy celebrated at the annual Hyannis Port annual Fourth of July parade.with a clear slap at the first lady.

Just a week before, it was announced that the 90-year-old would be participating in a hunger strike to protest President Trump's immigration policies on the southern border.

But Ethel's protestations may be somewhat hypocritical, as Robert F. Kennedy's widow ‘treated her immigrant servants like dogs,’ according to insiders who worked for her.

I bet they’re all like this. They cloak their utter contempt for minorities with some feigned support for civil rights, government giveaways, and open borders. As long as the minorities “know their place” and dutifully vote Demoncrap, they’re allowed to walk among the elites.

The Kennedys have pretty much always treated “the help” like crap, going back to Joe, Sr.’s time.

Ethel looked 90 y/o, 40 years ago.
Probably due to all that childbearing.
She must think the Kennedy’s are still looked up to by the masses.

“Dogs” sounds better than “Slaves”.

Given how they treated their one daughter ( giving her a lobotomy which turned her into a vegetable ), they were a pretty screwed up jerk ass bunch.

And old Joe set a bad example for his sons, regarding how the Kennedy men treated female hired help. From whst I’ve heard, these wealthy liberal types treat their help like slaves. As if they should feel honored to be allowed to labor for the Kennedys.

I had a friend who was a paralegal in a law office that administered one of the Kennedy kids’ trusts. Bobby’s and Ethel’s kids would have to come in about once a quarter to sign papers and sometimes to get money. My friend said that the kids treated everyone in the office like dirt — barking orders like the secretaries, paralegals and even lawyers were their servants. So it doesn’t surprise me that Ethel treated everyone like dirt too. Its a typical liberal trait. The louder they wail about their love for the “little people,” the worse they treat them.

I went to an Independence Day celebration yesterday in what could be considered "anytown USA" and it was like a cross-section of America: all sorts of colors, all sorts of shapes, people in wheelchairs, a few foreign languages being spoken, and a few people "out there" (i.e., a dude dressed like the Statue of Liberty). There were no protests, no hate, and the Mayor didn't get political. It was enjoyable.

So....where is the diversity in the Hyannisport Independence Day festivities??!?

Dear Ethel treated the hired help like dogs - NOT like mam’s best friend, rather, like the jihadis treat dogs...

The entire Kennedy clan were/are scum-sucking bottom dwellers (IMO)

It is a curiosity that those who claim to “really care” do not care at all and she who claims not “to care” is the most caring of all.
