Any man who could do what this besotted disgrace did and sit on an ETHICS panel, judging other people, is totally beyond contempt.

The Kennedy Klan are the lowest of the low, from their pro-NAZI bootledger Daddy on down to the most recent urchin in the Klan.

Beautiful. I have to remember that.

Thank you for the ping Cal and the wonderful memories of how a lot of us grew up. Now, those were the days!

And a major thank you for jogging memories of what fat teddy did!

I can't wait to see him squirming!

"I also have no idea just how Sen. Edward Kennedy sleeps at night. "

Total lack of conscience is a great sleeping pill.

Should have called it "Sham-a-lot" instead of Camelot.

Did you have a man that come every other week to sharpen knives?

That is unheard of now!

"He is dying."

Apparently its taking a long time. I guess God wants him to let him know he's dying.

FYI, North did have extraordinary security (reportedly $60,000 worth) for protection against a terrorist who targeted him for assassination .. but it wasn't bin Laden, it was Abu Nidal

Excerpt

"Q: And it was your role in that attack that eventually made you a target of Nidal, correct?

A: A month later, Abu Nidal published a list of 15 people he intended to assassinate. He made it public. In fact, he did a little press release on the whole thing. And my name was on that list, which surprised a lot of people. … You'd understand why the president was on the list, or the director of central intelligence, or the national security advisor. Their names were all public, but mine wasn't. And there was a lot of speculation inside the government as to how they got my name, because I was indeed in on the planning for the attack.

Q: But you weren't his only target, were you?

A: The following year, on Feb. 11, the FBI detected a message that was sent from Tripoli, Libya, to the People's Committee for Libyan Students in McLean, Va. Seven terrorists of an Abu Nidal cell that was operating in McLean got the message. They went to a self-storage facility, got from the self-storage facility some rocket-propelled grenade launchers and grenades, hand grenades, explosives, machine guns, and took a map to my house and a diagram of my house that they got from the local zoning authority, which, by the way, you can get anywhere in America. I think you have to pay a quarter to get it.

On the diagram of the house they had written the names of my children, which bedroom each one of them was in, and even the name of the dog, a Labrador retriever named Max, all in Arabic. The FBI arrested them about seven miles from our house because they were able to detect it. It's a great success story for the FBI.

Q: And then?

A: In the aftermath of that, the terrorists were arraigned before a federal magistrate very late at night, very early in the morning. The federal magistrate would not allow them to be booked on anything other than a weapons charge because the FBI did not want to reveal the sensitive intelligence that had tipped them to the attack. And so, in spite of the protests of the U.S. attorney, a man named Henry Hudson, the judge allowed them to be booked on only a weapons charge. About an hour later, a gentleman showed up from the Yugoslav Embassy here in Washington, D.C., which at the time housed the Libyan mission, with three and a half million dollars in cash, and they walked.

Q: And how did the government handle a development like that?

A: The FBI then came back to my house, picked up my wife and children and me, put us on an airplane and flew us down to Camp LeJeune, N.C. They hid us down there for two weeks. They then brought us back to our home where we lived with 35 federal agents who were sent there to protect us. And I will tell you, they drink a lot of coffee, my friend (laughs). They literally stayed with us 24 hours a day, seven days a week until I retired from the Marines."

Whatever the connection...the fact remains that Kennedy is wetbrain.

Mrs. Alito should not have dignified this neanderthal with her tears...but what's done is done. I empathize.

I was a midwest country girl growing up in a town of 500! We had an ice man though, and a milk man.

My days consisted of riding my bicycle, along with my best friend, about 2 miles out of town to stony creek. We would fish, pick wildflowers, play, eat a little lunch and then bike back home by 3. Never a worry about a thing.

Now, there are 2 registered sex offenders living in this tiny town and children no longer can roam freely. sigh

Thanks for this article.

Regardless of why she was crying, I'm sure BOTH she and her husband were aware of the irony and the injustice of Mr. Alito being cross-examined by this sterling example of putresecent human scum.

I went to high school with a girl who won a gold medal in ice skating in the Olympics. We never met. However...somebody could draw "a connection"....

Also... My older brother wrestled in college with a team mate who wrestled for Denny Hasert in high school!! I have a "connection" to "The Coach!"

I don't think Mrs. Alito had much control over her tears, eleni.

She was overwhelmed by the kindness of Sen. Graham after her honorable husband was savaged and accused by dishonorable 'men.'

I'm sure that if she could have stopped crying, she would have. This whole thing had to be overwhelming............even if you knew it was coming.

No, this doesn't rise to the level of Buckhead's achievement. But it was worth the time I spent after I read the original "story" and decided to find out if it was true.

I disagree. If it could be established that Kennedy was even remotely aware of a possible link between the Alito family and the Kopechnes, and he decided to attack Alito because of this, it would be very serious.

I should have mentioned that it was Abu Nidal who at the time was the most dangerous terrorist in the world. Thanks for posting that here for those who didn't know.

A leftist friend took the time to debunk the Ollie North urban legend in a mass e-mail to a huge group of people. So I took the time to hit "Reply All" and tell people just what kind of jihadist Abu Nidal was and that he took refuge in Iraq.

Boy, did that tick her off!

I know it's been a long time but wouldn't it be great if someone took a new interest in Mary Jo's death and wrote a best-selling book about it. It's amazing how little press it got back then. Although, my understanding is that when Kennedy later tried to run as the Dem pres. candidate people would show up at his events with signs that said "Murderer". Apparently, not everyone forgot the indident. It would be great if something like that would happen now.
