Flashback: 'Lion of the Senate' Ted Kennedy's Weird Sex Antics Widely Known

The sudden condemnation of sexual harrassment by Democrats within their own ranks rings a bit hollow especially due to the suspicious timing. It now seems as more of a way for Democrats to go after President Donald Trump or Judge Roy Moore of Alabama rather than sincere disgust at the sexual antics of people such as former President Bill Clinton or Senator Al Franken.

One glaring example proves this point. Remember the man hailed by liberals and the mainstream media as the "Lion of the Senate," Ted Kennedy? His truly bizarre, off the wall, sexual harrassment antics were widely known long before he passed away in 2009 yet there was no condemnation of him and, of course, no call for him to leave the Senate. GQ magazine published an article about the "waitress sandwich" incident involving both Kennedy and fellow senator Chris Dodd in their February 1990 edition which was reprinted on April 14, 2016. It reveals in excruciating detail the extremely humiliating sexual harrassment of a waitress yet no liberal voice was raised against Kennedy (or Dodd) even though the incident was common knowledge:

Lyin' of the Senate.

[NFHale]

Best thing that SOB ever did for the country was kick off.

[Lurkinanloomin]

If your name is Kennedy or Clinton you get a free pass on these things.

[Gay State Conservative]

According to Ed Klein,life-long pal and former editor of Newsweek,Teddy used to joke about Chappaquiddick.

[TheRightGuy]

maybe we should dig up jfk and crucify him while we're at it

[eyeamok]

Quit picking on Teddy, he has been Sober for 8 years now, he has done nothing bad in that time.

[Impala64ssa]

Look at all the “sexcapades” those wild wild Kennedy boys got away with. If the libs had ANY shred of intellectual honesty there’s an airport in NYC, an old football stadium in DC and many highways, byways, schools and other buildings and landmarks they would demand be renamed

[colorado tanker]

You don't understand. This kind of behavior is only punished if a Republican is accused.

You thought the double standard had changed just because they went after Harvey Weinstein and other Hollywood liberals? Think again.

[dowcaet]

Ted Kennedy certainly did his share of “Lyin(g)” as a US Senator whether it was covering up Chappaquiddick or being on the ground with fellow senator Chris Dodd while both were enjoying a “waitress” sandwich!

[ETL]

"rather than sincere disgust at the sexual antics of people such as former President Bill Clinton or Senator Al Franken."

Might as well throw these others onto the thread, as it's good to have lots of ammo conveniently in one place.

[a few excerpts from article...]

Kelsey recalls Broaddrick saying the meeting with Clinton began with small talk, and "she was a little surprised he was by himself."

"She said he was showing her locations outside the window there in Little Rock, and then, all of a sudden, he just kind of grabbed her and started kissing her," remembers Kelsey.

"He overtook her and pushed her to the bed, and from that point on it was just a rape."

Kelsey says Broaddrick explained how her lip became swollen: "He bit her lip to try to keep her from struggling with him.

excerpt:

"...the woman tells how Gore greeted her at the door of his room at the Hotel Lucia for the 11 p.m. appointment with a hug that "went on a bit long," then quipped "call me Al." Hotel staff had told the licensed therapist when booking her that the client was Al Gore, but that he was going under the name "Mr Stone."

Gore allegedly asked her to focus on his abdominal area and adductors -- the inner thigh muscles -- as well as his back and other areas.

While his lower body was covered with a sheet, she said, Gore "became vocal" with "muffled moans" and asked her to go lower, getting angry when she refused.

"It appeared he was demanding sexual favors or sexual behaviors," the woman said.

She then asked Gore to show her where he wanted to be massaged and he "grabbed my hand, shoved it down under the sheet to his ***** **** area, my fingers brushing against his ***** and firmly planted my hand on his pubic crest region and said to me 'There!' in a very sharp, loud, angry-sounding tone."

The woman told police she was caught in "a perfect storm" in a room with someone who was "Teflon-coated in terms of his credibility and celebrity status"..."

Police specifically responded to claims by the woman -- who said she remained clothed through the alleged encounter -- that she had noticed her black slacks had "stains" on them.

Police said they did not collect her attire because they believed it would not provide evidence.

“At this point, the Police Bureau does not consider this an ongoing investigation unless new evidence is received in this case,” Wednesday's police statement said.

Where was John Edwards around the time his alleged "love child" Frances Quinn Hunter was conceived?

The senator was in New York – receiving his Father of the Year Award.

Edwards accepted his June 27, 2007, honor from the Father's Day/Mother's Day Council exactly eight months before the child was born Feb. 27, 2008, according to a birth certificate obtained by the Charlotte Observer.

Before beginning his Father of the Year acceptance speech, Edwards told an adoring crowd, "I hate to admit it, but I am not the best parent in my family. ..."

McGreevey Had Gay Truckstop Sex While Maintaining Heterosexual Cover

Monday, May 22, 2006

Former New Jersey Governor [DEMOCRAT] Jim McGreevey reveals his life of seedy debauchery before press revelations of an affair with a male aide forced him into coming out of the closet.

Jim McGreevey shockingly admits that before he became governor of New Jersey, he’d have anonymous gay sex at Garden State highway rest stops. “All I knew was that my behavior was getting crazier and crazier,” McGreevey says of his torrid truck-stop trysts in an upcoming book that details his tortured life of lies and sexual repression:

“With each new encounter, I was getting nearer and nearer to being caught – which surely would have generated headlines, especially after I became executive director of the state parole board” in the mid-1980s.

“The closet starves a man, and when he gets a chance he gorges till it sickens him,” he writes in his book, titled “The Confession.”

Unfortunately that Traitor is buried in Arlington amongst our heroes. They should exhume his sorry ass and dump him as toxic waste

[Pearls Before Swine]

I went to a range on Cape Cod once, and heard a local refer to Chappaquiddick as “the Kennedy carwash.”

Of course, range-goers are not your average or median MA voter.

[Chode]

so manslaughter and philandering are now antics...

[llevrok]

From a web site about his "liaisons" -

1983 to 1989 - Ted was known throughout the mid-to-late '80s for his series of hookups and the occasional serious dating relationship, but he refused to commit. In 1989 paparazzi caught him having sex with an unnamed woman on a motorboat while on holiday in Europe. The Boston Globe reports that when the photos hit the press, "Alabama senator Howell Heflin joked he was glad to see Kennedy had 'changed his position on offshore drilling.'"

How times and humor have changed!

[Dick Bachert]

Some liberal feminist (but I repeat myself) has blogged that Democrats who assault and grope women should NOT be ejected from the legislature. Plenty of precedent for that. Y'all remember the “Lion of the Senate”? His nickname should have been “TOMCAT of the Senate”. I guess if the women are KILLED in the process, it's OK!

[bgill]

JFK got around more than Teddy and his gropes were probably welcomed.

[Lurkinanloomin]

Boy, am I old, I remember that joke.

[llevrok]

One of our Seattle area news broadcasts (KING 5 TV) keeps showing 1995 video of Republican and Oregon Senator Bob Packwood as if to show they are "fair and balanced" to the topic of sexual harassment.

I keep tweeting them "but..but...but what about Teddy or Bubba or .....???"

Flashback : Ted Kennedy-Chris Dodd waitress sandwich

It now seems as more of a way for Democrats to go after President Donald Trump or Judge Roy Moore of Alabama

I suspect the Moore charges are a complete fabrication with no basis at all. Once they saw that "Russia" had failed, they moved to the next item on their checklist.

Their plan was:
(1) create a feeding frenzy on "sex",
(2) do a dry run on another conservative - where Judge Moore is a target of opportunity, and
(3) then hit President Trump once they have learned their lessons from the dress rehearsal.

Moore was probably in the right place at the right time, with the bonus that he's Trump's age and old enough that they can pretend he did things four decades ago. Plus it's a US Senate seat, which the thugs on the left would love to steal. If there had been some reason they could not make those claims about Moore, they would have done it in the Virginia Governor's race, or another race this fall, chosen purely based on fitting their template and not on any actual offenses.
