Yesterday, The Hill reported that Patrick ("Patches") Kennedy took a swipe at Scott Brown:
"Scott Brown's (R-Mass.) election has been shown to be 'a joke,' the son of the late Sen. Edward Kennedy (D-Mass.) said Thursday.
Rep. Patrick Kennedy (D-R.I.) castigated Brown for having pushed to be sworn in ahead of schedule to permanently fill the Senate seat left vacant by the congressman's father's death in August.
'Brown's whole candidacy was shown to be a joke today when he was sworn in early in order to cast his first vote as an objection to Obama's appointment to the NLRB,' Kennedy said Thursday."
Today Howie Carr of the Boston Herald reviews the Kennedy family's "greatest hits" as he reports that Patrick's reelection to Congress from Rhode Island is in jeopardy:

Papa Joe Kennedy was a world-class crook and his clan had a history of immorality.
That's what the people of Massachusetts found acceptable for more than half a century.
“what would Patrick be qualified to do?”

The runt of the litter from the runt of the litter.
Or the people of Rhode Island. They are starting to wake up and figure out that the Kennedy’s and others of their ilk have lead them from prosperity to perdition in the last 50 years.
They recklessy drive a car off a bridge and leave a helpless women to drown.
They recklessy crash a plane into the ocean and kill a pregnant wife and sister in law.
They die recklessly playing football while downhill skiing.
They recklessly use drugs and alcohol leaving a trial of cover-ups, wrecked vehicles, property and unknown personal injuries.
Then, cap this off with the patriarch Ted's reckless lifelong political attacks on America's values, institutions and very sovereignty.
The "joke" is that any Kennedy is ever trusted with any position of political power in this country.
Wasn’t it Sam Giancana who said to Bobby Kennedy during a congressional hearing, “Your father was the biggest crook who ever lived?”
Sounds like that mental midget needs a little more whine to wash down his drugs.
Jokes on you Patches.
“Interesting that he would call it a joke. “
Nope—the joke’s on the kennedys and the end of the dynasty that started with criminals and ended with one.
“I have never worked a f***king day in my life.”
Scott Brown needs to reach out across the aisle, grab this child by the neck, put him in back of his truck and drop him off at a detox.
I’m surprised he got Scott Brown’s name right.
While flipping off the masses from the back seat as one Kennedy clan member did when leaving the Captain of the Chappaquiddick Swim Team's funeral....
Given where he justly is now after Saint Peter pulled the "down forever" lever when the Swimmer arrived at the Pearly Gates, the better name now for him would be the "Sweater" or the "Melter."
"Guy! It's supposed to be MINE! It's not fair."
Everybody should read the original Carr column, it is a keeper and a classic.
