Markey should stick to his pet project of making amusement rides safe for America.

Good God! How could we be so cruel and hartless as to deport them back to their country of origin...oh, the humanity!

I think I met a sister-in-law of Markey's on an airport shuttle. This was back in the Gary Hartpence/Donna Rice days.

I told her the Hart's big mistake was not letting Ted Kennedy drive Rice home.

Then she brings up Markey...
