Did he just hang his butt over a railing and take a dump?

That wasn’t fuel - it was Teddy’s dirty bathwater.

Speaking of Spitzering out bilge oil and chutzpah, remember that Teddy named his dog Splash.

There’s a time warp here ... no self respecting yachtsman is racing his boat in Nantucket Sound in mid-March. Most boats are still high and dry in winter storage ... and unless swimmers are members of the local polar bear swim team, no one is swimming in 40F water.

Sometimes a little fuel can get into the bilge water, and it only takes a small amount to produce a slick.

I don’t know what else you can do with it but pump it out. You have to pump the bilge sooner or later, or the boat will sink.

But the Coast Guard requires all power boats to put a sticker on the boat near the engine warning that pumping fuel into the ocean is illegal. If the Coast Guard happens to catch you doing it, it’s a big fine.

Lawmakers like Kennedy are responsible for this kind of nonsense. They should throw the book at him.

Amazing, that the mental and moral runt of the Kennedy litter was the only one to survive....

I guess that it’s poetic justice and punishment for their crook of a father -— Old Joe Kennedy.

But — too bad for America.

The “dump” was in 2002.

"Sometimes a little fuel can get into the bilge water, and it only takes a small amount to produce a slick."

Very true, and the amounts are insignificant compared to the oil that is released into the ocean naturally. I'm defending Ted Kennedy...I need to go take a shower.

P.S. My guns have killed fewer people than Ted Kennedy's car.

Yes, there was a time warp. I found the original story, and apparently the photo was just released. But the incident happened in the summer of 2002.
