Alito's Credibility Problem [by Ted Kennedy]

As Judge Samuel Alito approaches his confirmation hearings next week, the more we learn about him, the more questions we have about the credibility of his assurances to us.

Ted is not qualified to comment on anything.

There is only one error I can see in this anti-Alito screed in the Post. At the end, the author is described as a Democratic Senator from Massachusetts. This is incorrect. It should have said that the author is a beached whale in Massachusetts, which has swum ashore because it was deranged, drunk, or both.

Now, that simple change, that modest correction, makes the entire article sensible. Don't you think so?

If this wealthy Princeton alumni CAP group thing gets out, the American public will go berserk. It may go all the way to the White House, it may force us to alter the constitution and our way of life. It'll destroy families, cause dogs to howl, and force sports teams to put black arm bands on their uniforms. I'm trying my best not to jump out my window.

CAP group?
Theme paper at 14?

C'mon Shemp Kennedy, go through his garbage, bribe people who vaguely know him, but you have to bring more to the table(pun intended) than that.

A funeral Mass for Kopechne was held on July 22, 1969 at St. Vincent's Roman Catholic Church in Plymouth, Pennsylvania. She is buried in the parish cemetery on the side of Larksville Mountain.

Billy Joel is such as scumbag -- if you remember the lyrics to "Only the Good Die Young"...

No cheers.

Ted Kennedy has all the credibility of a flea fart.

Ted Kennedy "loves" abortions because now he no longer has to drown his knocked-up mistresses.

Thank you for the ping.

I have to admit, Senator Kennedy makes one good point!

He made sure his name was spelled correctly.

[skinkinthegrass]

..but unless someone prominent is going to stand outside the Senate, in front of microphones, and bring up Chappaquiddick, or better yet, fire it back at Kennedy during supporting testimony for Alito, it's going to be the same old story.

Yhea, That's Right...Ch!cken$h!t Republicans, wishing "to maintain the "Decorum" of the Senate"...ala "KKK" Bobby Byrd

[skinkinthegrass]

NEVER FORGET...we never will. 8^/

This is always good if you want ALL the facts about Kennedy's killing of his little office fling.

Mary Jo Kopechne could not be reached for comment.

Since I began watching politics in earnest right around 1980, the Republicans have mostly exhibited a play nice with the Democrats mindset no matter how vicious the circumstances. Whether the Iran-Contra Commission, a Supreme Court confirmation, or just a plain vanilla hearing, the RATS would be tossing molotov cocktails in all directions, and the Republicans would be asking how high they were supposed to jump. They run Congress about the same way. I don't know why they just don't bring back Bob Michel and Howard Baker if that's how they're going to act. Disgusting, gutless cowards.

Anybody on this thread bother reading Teddy's remarks? I didn't.

[Tolerance Sucks Rocks]

Wonder what Ted thinks about the news out this week that Castro killed his brother?

He probably drank a toast to Castro upon finding out.
