Me too ... *victim*?!?!
He's an addict on a Congressman's salary. How many people in his state has a gig that sweet?
If he really wants to earns the term 'victim' let me resign from office first, go to rehab, then start from the bottom of the political ladder again.
That's not the Kennedy way.
The Kennedy way is to cover it up and get the media to cover your tracks.

I'd cry them a river, but they'd just drive a car into it.

The Kennedy story is better than the one a lady told me when I was a young policeman that she was speeding because she was almost out of gas and trying to get to the gas station fast.
To: EveningStar
The Kennedy's have placed a curse on Massachusetts and Rhode Island, There can be no other excuse for electing these bums except a curse. Too bad Rose didnt shoot Joe for poling Gloria Swanson.
To: EveningStar
Just another example of what you get when you cross one drugged and drunken, sodden fool with another.....Patches !!
This poor example of humanity was doomed from the start, but has managed to keep the Kennedy name in the sewer as well as his daddy has, just hasn't killed anyone yet, but he is still relatively young.

His own adult choices cursed him. He should face responsibility for his actions and resign from congress immediately. Then he should seek treatment and take whatever legal penalties are due him. If he does that he'll be much more a man than many in his family including his dad.

To: EveningStar
The sycophant WP writer is just scripting ala Gollywood scene to conjure up unjustified sympathy for the perennial loser Patrick Kennedy. (Is Patrick Kennedy the one who lost a leg to cancer when he was a teen? Is "Patches" the Kennedy family's nickname for him?)
Rhode Island is a real loser too - a Kennedy satellite.

"some people make bad choices. Kennedy's are masters of not accepting responsibilty for their bad choices."
The Kennedys are America's "royal family" and THEY are ENTITLED to not accept responsibility. Accountability is for the OTHERS - the Hoi Poloi; the ignorant middleclass.

Exactly! As I have said repeatedly to my young son, you are responsible for your decisions. I don't want to hear any of the "it was an accident" crap. That's a young person's version of playing the victim.

Kennedy Curse? For the rest of us, I believe it is called "Don't do the crime if you cant do the time".

Ditto to THAT Mogirl!
You know, it seems as I get older that I have to work a little harder to even be mildly amusing, and then Sofa King comes along and does it effortlessly, scoring 10 outta 10 for laughs!
What a GREAT line!

The Kennedy Curse has been self-inflicted for the most part. The Kennedy Curse is their irresponsibility and their arrogance, but the Kennedy's are not the victims of the curse, we are.

Starting with Joe (unrepentant Nazi-courter before and during WWII, profiteer, bootlegger, mob associate) ....
Just how many of the Kennedy clan HAVE been protected by the NY media?
JFK's sister was (wrongly) committed to an asylum for insanity to hide her, his brother was killed flying in WWII (a laudable though truly tragic death), JFK himself ran for Senator - then president based on his PT boat getting run over by a destroyer (? - and nobody can explain how THAT happened) and a ghost-written book (Profiles in Courage) authored by his speech-writer), Robert and then Ted rode his coattails (and women) into politics ...
