We've reached a horrible time in which the People know about the obscenities of the Kennedys/clintons/burgers--and still allow them to go unpunished.

The pot will boil.

In 1965 at the St. Patrick's day parade in South Boston when I was about 9 years old, I shook Ted Kennedy's hand.

I still try to wash thoroughly when I think about it.

A&E did an "Investigative reports" on this. They came up with the most likely scenario: Teddy puts the moves on Mary Joe. She is appalled and kicks him out of the car. She doesn't know the Island, and drives off the bridge. Meanwhile, Teddy goes back to the party. He gets a ride to the ferry and goes back to his hotel. His aids go looking for Mary Joe. They find her, rush to the hotel to tell Teddy. Teddy concocts the "I tried to save her" story because it is politically less damaging than the "she kicked me out of the car" story.

Shame they didn't run the article next week.....

Turned down a Kennedy? Not bloody likely.

Massachusetts is the Twilight Zone of American politics. Its non judgmental liberalism allowed Uncle Ted to have a flourishing career as a U.S Senator and now its given us his political sibling, John F*ckin, who libeled American G.I's fighting in Southeast Asia as "killers." And its bequeathed us a party that never asks questions when things go wrong on its watch.

That's the part I can't figure out. Why the HELL do Massachusites put up with that?

Upcoming Massachusetts DemocRAT National Convention Bump!

[goldstategop]

If you're the 9 out 10 people in Massachusetts who knows the only game in town is the Democratic Party, you'll understand.

Fortunately, I am from and in Texas, so I'll never have to contemplate such hideousness.

The only problem wit this is that it has already been established that Mary Jo was not driving.

This forum started out as the Whitewater forum, dedicated to not letting crimes in high places go unnoticed. With that in mind, this article is required reading. Let us not forget Mary Jo Kopechne, Mary Mahoney, Eileen Wellstone, and all the victims of the Kennedys and the Kennedy wannabe.

I always have wondered, Which of the Kennedy kids did Teddie the Whale take the rap for?

[SubMareener]

That is not the analysis of the data in the A&E report. They concluded that she was in the driver's seat when the car went into the water.

Maybe her head was in the driver's seat?

Eileen Wellstone ?

For the Money. The Big Dig is The Most Expensive Public Works Project Ever On The Face Of The Planet. Period.
