Fresh from rehab, Rep. Patrick Kennedy said yesterday he wants to be treated like an African-American from Washington if and when he gets charged for crashing his car on Capitol Hill.
Denying that he was drunk and or that he asked the Capitol Police for preferential treatment, Kennedy, a Rhode Island congressman, said he's prepared "in terms of bookings, in terms of mug shots, fingerprints, whatever they might have me do."
"It's what anyone else would have done to them if they were an African-American in Anacostia," Kennedy said in a shaky voice, referring to the mostly minority neighborhood in southeastern Washington.

Like father like son. The apple doesn't fall far from the tree. Splish, splash. So many cliches so little time.

"It's what anyone else would have done to them if they were an African-American in Anacostia," Kennedy will now have security keep him out of his own gated community.

What an idiotic and offensive comment! How can blacks not see how truly racist the left is?

"It's what anyone else would have done to them if they were an African-American in Anacostia,"
Just what sort of drugs is he on now? How far from reality can you possibly get?

Black America, Thanks to the likes of Jackson & Sharpton, Is exteremely dependent on the Government, For some of them, It's God. They need to learn the self-reliance is a virtue, Not a vice.

Let's see. 1. Denial of wrongdoing 2. Not given a sobriety test when he was obviously driving in an impaired state. 3. Instead was given ride home by the very policemen he almost crashed into. Why sure he was treated just the way the minorities are. Sure.

I can't help but wonder what he was on or drinking when he gave this little speech.

Next time they see him driving, they should pull him over and administer a 'Rodney King' beating.

The Left is the most Racist political party in history. It's all always about race, 24/7/356. Doesn't matter what race, just cut and paste what ever fits into the sentence.
How can the average Democrat NOT see this?

That's real easy to say now but it's too late. Anyone else would have been breath or blood tested at the time and placed under arrest if under the influence. Pat got a chauffered ride home.

He says this AFTER being allowed to enter and exit rehab.

One of his better quotes was, "I am proud to say I have never worked a f*k'n day in my life."

"Treat me like I'm black..."
...Like Marion Barry, for example, who's been in and out of the pen several times, and keeps getting re-elected anyway.
In a city that is 90%+ black, being treated like you're black might not be so bad.
