Just an opinion but I think you have your priorities misplaced.
Mary Jo is dead and her fate decided. Drunk fat ted's immortal soul, like it or not, is still up for grabs.
Good posting. This is one anniversary that the MSM will not mention. The left wing fat slob gets a free pass, so he can now pontificate about the morality and justice of the next Supreme court nominee.
I didn't realize it was his momma's car. Geeze what a sissy.
Teddy drinks because he knows Mary Jo is waiting for him.
Too bad no one in the msm will make mention of it. The fat tub has been pretty quiet this week (so far). What a sorry excuse for a human being, let alone an elected official.
What was she doing in the back seat? Was that some sort of a bondage thing or something?
I'm suprised. I would have thought the swimmer went for little boys. Wouldn't be a bit suprised.
I distinctly remember it, watching on TV as the murderer "explained" away what happened. Disgusting.
• In 1969, a car driven by Sen. Edward M. Kennedy (D-Mass.) plunged off a bridge on Chappaquiddick Island near Martha's Vineyard; passenger Mary Jo Kopechne died.

Outside the US, the story has more details, but looks like they have the year wrong:
Today in history
• 1968: US Senator Edward Kennedy’s car drove off a bridge on Chappaquiddick Island, Massachusetts killing his 28-year-old companion Mary Jo Kopechne. Kennedy fled the scene of the accident and received a suspended sentence of two months and one year's probation. Chappaquiddick now stands for political nemesis— a shady part of ones past that won't go away.
seems like bill clinton really did study at the knees of the kennedys...
Thank you! I'm glad someone besides Howie Carr thought to remember this anniversary. (Even FNC only mentioned the burning of Rome 1,941 years ago as "this day in history"!)
Well at least Kennedy never told anybody about Valerie Plame working for the CIA. Now there's a scandal.
