Teddy Kennedy Last Man On Earth Qualified To Question Ethics, Integrity Of Judicial Nominees
The American View ^ | January, 2006 | John Lofton

Posted on 01/26/2006 6:36:16 PM PST by The_Eaglet

There may be a more disgusting, nauseating spectacle than Teddy Kennedy sitting in judgment on a Supreme Court nominee’s ethics and integrity, but I’m not sure what this might be. But, there he was on national TV, a member of the Senate Judiciary Committee, asking his questions and making his points with all the skills of Ace Ventura, Pet Detective. Kennedy among other things:

— Was suspended from Harvard because of cheating when he was caught getting another student to take a Spanish test for him.

— Had his father get his Army duty changed to two years from the four years he signed up for. He ended up a guard at NATO headquarters in Paris rather than in Korea where a war was going on.

Ted Kennedy is unfit to serve in the Senate.

One thing I can't figure out from reading that YTedK.com site.

When they pulled that car out of the pond, was the car door opened?

Because if Ted opened the door and swam out, wouldn't that have caused the car filled with water?

So, if the water seeped in to suffocate her, vs. drown her, that would mean that the car door didn't open. No?

Did Ted actually go over in the car? Or did he drive her there, 'to talk'? And the 'talking maybe didn't go well' and she got upset and tried to drive away and accidently went off the bridge?

I'm just trying to figure out this air thing in the car.

According to Leo Dalamore, Teddy's cousin, a lawyer, was at the party and learned about the accident when Teddy returned to the party house, sans auto et sans blonde. He insisted that Teddy report the accident and Teddy agreed. His cousin left him off at the ferry slip whence Teddy swam back to Edgartown. Instead of reporting the accident, Teddy checked into a motel and proceeded to try to establish an alibi.

The next morning, he took the ferry back to Chappaquiddick and proceeded on foot to the accident scene. Two boys fishing had spotted the car that morning and called police. The local police chief ran the tags and had already discovered the body when he encountered Ted on the road. He accepted Ted's explanation that he intended to report the accident. (Actually he was going to see if it had been discovered.)

And as long as Senator Byrd is a member of the Senate the entire party has no right to challenge anyone about any organization or club they ever belonged to. It is outrageous.

Good Point.

>>>>whence Teddy swam back to Edgartown.

That is even debatable after reading YTedK.com

One of the statements made in that site was about a dingy that was tied up with a 'land lubbers' knot, since the ferry wasn't running.

And look at this statement once he got across from the Shiretown Inn room clerk. Don't you think she would have noticed if he was wet????

>>> - Peachey recalled that "He didn't look to me like a man who had come downstairs to complain about noise. He was just standing there. He was fully dressed. I think he was wearing a jacket and slacks. Usually, a man who just wants to complain about noise doesn't get up and get fully dressed to do it. Especially at 2:25 in the morning."<<<<

If anyone has the camera and editing equipment, I will write the documentary: TED KENNEDY, CHAPPAQUIDDICK LIFEGUARD. Anyone interested?

You may want to hook up with Evan Maloney.

Another Emerson quote comes to mind, "The louder he spoke of his honor, the faster we counted our spoons."

Swimming was the cousin's account. Could be he swiped a dingy. Edgartown is a summer resort. Usually people in these places don't leave dingies unsecured. Even if they did, wouldn't they at least secure the oars? The channel between Chappaquiddick and Edgartown is like 100 yards wide, even during changing tides not much current (unlike Pocha Pond), no challenge, really.

The landlubber's knot is a nice touch, though. I would be surprised that someone who grew up knowing how to handle boats didn't know how to tie a proper knot. Sounds more like a Yorker to me.

I've met Evan. He does good work and would simply write it himself.

That is interesting. The oars point too.

Huh.

DFU SONG: Bridge Over Troubled Water (Ted threatens to drive "Alioto" off bridge)
DFU SONGS | 1-2006 | Lyrics, Doug from Upland

Posted on 01/11/2006 4:43:22 PM PST by doug from upland

MIDI - BRIDGE OVER TROUBLED WATER

(musical intro)

Alioto, you will be grilled
Before we're done with you, we'll have had our fill
You racist scum, we'll certainly be exposing you
So I am warning you
There's a bridge off of which I'll drive you if you don't withdraw
There's a bridge off of which I'll drive you if you don't withdraw

I failed lifeguard class...you know that
But I float pretty well because I am so fat

My Oldsmobile has been restored to original

So I am warning you
There's a bridge off of which I'll drive you if you don't withdraw
There's a bridge off of which I'll drive you if you don't withdraw

I won't hesitate...like old times

We know that Oldsmobile just cannot stop on a dime
And in my hand will be a bottle for company

So I am warning you
There's a bridge off of which I'll drive you if you don't withdraw
There's a bridge off of which I will drive you if you don't withdraw

Withdraw

DFU SONG: Surrey with the Fringe on Top (Ted Kennedy, happy Chappaquiddick anniversary)
DFU SONGS | 7-2004 | Lyrics, Doug from Upland

Posted on 07/03/2004 5:00:40 PM PDT by doug from upland

MIDI - SURREY WITH THE FRINGE ON TOP (scroll to "From Oklahoma")

Mary Jo, come for a drive with me
With the wind in our hair we'll feel free
I have all the power of two hundred horses
We will have a fun time, you will see

Fords and Cads and Jags better scurry
'Cause I'll really be in a hurry
'Cause I'll really be in a hurry in my Oldsmobile

You are making my dingy quiver
I am hoping you will deliver
I know a nice place by a river where I'll cop a feel

It's automatic and the engine sure purrs
It has air for summer weather
And if I am naked while I fool around
My butt sometimes sticks to the leather

Mary Jo, you're cute as a model
Will you pass one more Chevas bottle
You'll see when I step on the throttle it will be surreal
It is always an adventure in my hot Oldsmobile

I've a technique I haven't varied
Let us just pretend I'm not married
Let us just pretend I'm not married in this Oldsmobile

I know sometimes I am conniving
My friend just took my test for diving
But I swear that I'm fit for driving so it's no big deal

It's automatic and the engine sure purrs
It has air for summer weather
And if I am naked while I fool around
My butt sometimes sticks to the leather

Mary Jo, you're cute as a model
Will you pass one more Chevas bottle
You'll see when I step on the throttle it will be surreal
It is always an adventure in my hot Oldsmobile

When we hit the road, if it's raining
There will be no need for complaining
My brakes I've always been maintaining in my Oldsmobile

It's well known that I hold my liquor
Most officials get drunk much quicker
There's a barf bag if I get sicker after that big meal

It's automatic and the engine sure purrs
It has air for summer weather
And if I am naked while I fool around
My butt sometimes sticks to the leather

Mary Jo, you're cute as a model
Will you pass one more Chevas bottle
You'll see when I step on the throttle it will be surreal
It is always an adventure in my hot Oldsmobile

In 2001, the NATIIONAL ENQUIRER reported that Ted was in very bad condition because of his liver. Gee, how could that be possible? I guess the story was less than accurate. Well, they got the love child right anyway. From the archives, here is one of my favorites.
===================================================================

MIDI - YELLOW RIVER

Poor, poor Ted…we just heard the news
Could it be that he’s had too much booze
He holds a seat that the RATS may lose
Teddy’s liver

Hey Jane Swift, dear, are you all set
You will soon get your chance, we bet
Poor Tom Daschle…his pants are all wet
Teddy’s liver

Teddy’s liver, Teddy’s liver…his doc says it is pretty bad
Teddy’s liver, Teddy’s liver…the vast right wing is feeling sad

If only there could be a way to hear from Mary Jo
We’re sure she would say it’s a tragic way to go
Poor, poor Teddy’s liver

When he’s gone, it will seem so odd
No waitress sandwich with his pal, Dodd
So raise your glass and let’s give him a nod
Teddy’s liver

When the time comes to say goodbye
We will not see one dry eye
Like Ron Brown, will Scumbag laugh and then cry
Teddy’s liver

Teddy’s liver, Teddy’s liver…his doc says it’s pretty bad
Teddy’s liver, Teddy’s liver…the vast right wing is feeling sad

If only there could be a way to hear from Mary Jo
We’re sure she would say that it’s a tragic way to go
Poor, poor Teddy’s liver

Teddy’s liver, Teddy’s liver…his doc says it’s pretty bad
Teddy’s liver, Teddy’s liver…the right wing is feeling sad
