I know human beings. And Senator, you're no human being.

You do, however, resemble several species of insect life I've stepped on before.

I've been saying for years that Teddy doesn't know Jack...

That would make him, appropriately enough, Jack Off.

I heard Sen Orrin Hatch finally got Ted into a secret rehab program and Teddy is off the booze for now. What they say really did it was a doctor told him he was dying of alcoholism. I have no idea if the rumor is true that Kennedy has stopped drinking (he looks a bit better these days) but I have no doubt that Ted is an alcoholic.

Despite my distaste and utter disgust with Kennedy, I hope he stays sober for his sake. But he has yet to make amends with all the people his alcoholism has hurt over the years (that is one of the 12 steps--to make amends to those you have harmed.)

Kennedy could start with a public apology to the Kopechne family.

Surely you can't be talking about Jack Daniels, are you?

Actually, the Ukraine events WERE tainted by Bushco. The goverment party, which had stolen the elections fair and square planned to bring in a cohort of coal miners from eastern (mostly Russian) Ukraine. The coal miners would beat up the pro-democracy demonstrators who were inhibiting the actions of the kleptocracy. If the pro democracy demonstrators were able to defend themselves from the coal miners, the kleptocracy would declare martial law, and if necessary ask Putin to send in the Russian army to restore order.

As the coal miners got on chartered buses to go to Kiev, they found a case of Vodka on each one, with a note "from friends of the coal miners". At each scheduled stop, more cases of vodka were dropped off so they would have a steady supply. By the time the caravan got to Kiev, the coal miners were not in a condition to do anything. The buses turned around and took them home. No fights, no martial law, no Russian intervention.

The Vodka was provided by the US CIA (Porter Goss) and his friends at the UK MI-6.

I bet Kennedy would be upset that the CIA was contributing to the delinquency of miners.

I haven't seen Teddy lately, even on MTP yesterday. If he looks better than he used to, I'd guess that you're right.

The factor that argues against that is that recovering alcoholics tend to change their behavior and quit being obnoxious offensive jerks, at least for a little while. If anything, he's becoming more offensive and hateful.

Well, I suppose if fire fighters fight fires, and crime fighters fight crime, then Chappaquiddick Fats is a freedom fighter.

"I have no doubt that Ted is an alcoholic."

Even if he's sober, he has the personality that is described in AA as a "dry drunk."
