In the Summer of 1989 Kennedy and fellow Senator Chris Dodd were having lunch at famous Washington D.C. restaurant La Brasserie. Kennedy requested the attendance of waitress Carla Gaviglio. According to the Washington Times "When she put in an appearance in their private retreat - 'The Teddy Kennedy Fun Room' - the Massachusetts senator picked her up and heaved her onto a table. The crystal candlesticks and champagne glasses shattered as he grabbed her again and flung her on top of Dodd.
"Then Kennedy threw himself on top of the woman. The waitress implored Mr. Kennedy to 'Get off me!'
"Another waitress entered to find 'things all tipped over and Kennedy was on top, [the waitress] was in the middle and Dodd was on the bottom.' At that point the sandwich was disassembled."
I challenge anyone to name a man more morally bankrupt than Teddy.The fact that Kennedy has sat in judgement of Supreme Court nominees just sickens me.
“...because I would assume Ted Kennedy has never lifted anything heavier than a scotch-and-soda in 40 years.”
LOL! Perfect. Made my day. ;)
No kidding.
I hope that the SOB croaks on live TV.
I’m sick of this PC BS.
Teddy Kennedy is scum, and I wish he was dead, and I am not going to apologize for that sentiment on some future thread.
When I was about 8 or 9 years old. (no idea when exactly) I shook the mans hand in a South Boston Parade.
Please forgive me, I knew not what I did, at the time.
This is not news, it has been reported upon, in passing, many times over the years. I first read about it in Esquire, I think it was, in early 1990's. No doubt it happened, so it cannot be libel.
Can we please start piss-testing all of our elected officials now?
This was widely reported and is old news. Are you an attorney, or do you just play one on tv?

RUSH: Have you heard Ted Kennedy is going to write a children’s book? Ted Kennedy is going to write a children’s book. I wonder if he’ll talk about whether or not he thinks you can strip search a waitress while — (interruption) yeah, yeah, yeah, he’s got a dog named Splash. Now, you can name your dog whatever you want to name your dog, it’s a free country, feel free, name your dog whatever you want to name it, but is he tone deaf?
Remember, we had videotape once back during the days of the TV show of Teddy Kennedy reading a song, a kids’ book to a bunch of school kids, itsy-bitsy spider and so forth. I guess that experience has launched him now to this new career, wants to write a kid’s book.
I wonder if he’ll describe how you make a sandwich out of a waitress like he and Chris Dodd did.
This is what “Dr.” Walter Freeman is doing in the picture above;
“Walter Freeman, an American physician, with his colleague James Watts, performed his first lobotomy operation in 1936. He was so satisfied with the results that he went on to do many thousands more, and in fact began a propaganda campaign to promote its use. He is also famous for inventing what is called ice pick lobotomy. Impatient with the difficult surgical methods pioneered by Moniz, he found he could insert an ice pick above each eye of a patient with only local anesthetic, drive it through the thin bone with a light tap of a mallet, swish the pick back and forth like a windshield wiper and — voilà — a formerly difficult patient is now passive.
Freeman recommended the procedure for everything from psychosis to depression to neurosis to criminality. He developed what others called assembly line lobotomies, going from one patient to the next with his gold-plated ice pick, even having his assistants time him to see if he could break lobotomy speed records. It is said that even some seasoned surgeons fainted at the site. Even Watts thought he had gone too far.”
The “honorable” SINators.
I can assure you I won’t be one of those pious FReepers imploring others to say only good things about the departed. He won’t desreve a bit of respect, nor will his scurvy family.
Not a bad performance for a 57 year old man in the pre-viagara days.
She’s lucky he didn’t smash her flatter than a pancake.
My comment was meant to be 100% sarcastic...but I didn't specify that...which,I guess,I should have done. It was meant to show profound contempt for Kennedy and Dodd but also for the voters who have reelected them since this incident....and Chappaquidik,in Teddy's case.
Doesn't matter that they're Liberal & Democrats--there's No Excuse for such abominable behaviour!
If you're really interested in getting to know Teddy...and have lots of free time....do some research on Chappaquidik.It's truly nauseating.
"I'd rather have a bottle in front of me than a frontal lobotomy".
You’re welcome.
I know, I know, "the rules."
Mark
Gee, where was his other hand?
We just read “One Flew over the Cuckoo’s Nest” in English, they screwed up lobotomies in it too...
Hearing about this “doctor” though, I’m pretty sure I’m gonna have some nightmares tonight.
