Island Jail fit for a King

What, beat em up a bit while on PCP so he doesn't feel it and then pay him 10 million bucks?

This is the jail. I grew up in MA and never knew this jail even existed. What a waste of valuable state-owned real estate. Between this and the make-up of the Mass Supreme Judicial Court (who brought you gay marriages) you wouldn't think that there have been Republican governors in MA since 1990.

Oh the horror! The electrical service box and galvanized conduit on the FRONT of the jail, now that's real punishment for a Prince.

I got the impression, from listening to the news, this morning was that he got to CHOOSE the jail.

Wanna hear another good one? My brother in-law works for SBA emergency division. They follow FEMA around to disasters. He was recently sent down the Mississippi and was soon to go on down the the damage in Florida but my sis told me that he is up in Boston Mass. I asked why, and she said Kennedy and Kerry were crying about not getting any help up there!! I guess they had a little rain and some flooding. Can you believe that? With all the damage in the south, he is up in Mass.

Me, too. Same impression - and that, prior to his sentencing, the in-their-pockets "judge" gave his liaryers permission to inspect the jail and pass it as suitable for the "royal" donkey.

You see that channel between Chappaquiddick and the foot of Daggett Street on raccoon's map?

That's the swim Ted testified he made after spending 9.5 hours on the phone and with his lawyers on the beach before reporting his accident. Remember? The one in which Mary Jo Kopechne was suffocated, after surviving several hours in his submerged car? I did the swim, too, to check out his story.

Not a piece of cake. Do-able. Unfortunately, not being gifted with miraculous Kennedy-like powers,I was unable duplicate Ted's feat of emerging dry on the other side. Immediately after his alleged swim, Ted spoke ostentatiously to several witnesses to establish his whereabouts and the time. They all reported he was dry.

Speaking of witnesses, Imus, the faux-cowboy leftist pawn, has yet to ask Esther "Lobster" Newburg, his favorite literary agent, about her false testimony in the case. She was there and saw Ted immediately after the accident.

I am willing to bet that the Worthy Oriental Gentleman who broke Muhammed's (P.B.U.H.) rules to get plastered and kill a guy will probably get a little sterner treatment than Ted. OTOH, knowing the Masshole peasants as I do, I shouldn't be at all surprised if they take a tank full of gas under the table, and elect the camel-spawn to congress.

I don't post too often, but this one really burned my buttocks...

Burning your buttocks is a felony in most states.

Burning your buttocks is a felony in most states.

But luckily us folks in the Territories are much more progressive...

From the headline I thought this was about Castro.
