Patrick Kennedy was on a trip
he drove his car into a blocker
The police said, when Patrick got out
of the car he staggered
And said, he was a Congressman and was
late for a vote.

The time frame was after 2 AM in the morning.
Can we deduce young Patrick was drunk as a goose
why then did the cops drive him home??

If he was driven home we have to conclude
he adduced - he was on his way to vote
meant nothing and he is sandbagging his way
around like his dad, Senator Ted Kennedy.

That's what the outfit CSIS, mentioned in the article, is supposed to be doing. It was made up of mostly ex-cops and ex-Mounties, etc., and was fairly secretive. An old college buddy of mine was the first boss of it back in the 80's. Howard, his wife, and I spent a long weekend once with his wife and him in Ottawa and he had to take a couple of mysterious phone calls in the middle of Saturday night. :^) (It was May or June 1986 - I remember because the Canadiens beat Calgary for the Stanley Cup that weekend.) He wanted the outfit to be more effectual than it was, but other than that wouldn't discuss it much.
