On Dec. 16, the New York Times reported that Caroline Kennedy made a series of rapid-fire phone calls to New York politicians, including New York Gov. David Paterson, to declare her interest in the U.S. Senate seat being vacated by Hillary Clinton.
Times sources reported that Kennedy, 51, is a clear front-runner for appointment to the seat by the New York governor. The upside of her candidacy is that the 2010 ballot will read Kennedy-Paterson," the Times quoted a Paterson adviser as saying.
How does Kennedy stack up on the right to life for unborn babies?
According to Wikipedia, the only political candidate Kennedy had endorsed had been her uncle, Ted Kennedy (in 1980), before endorsing Barrack Obama in Janurary, 2008. The Guardian (UK) reported on Dec. 18 that one of Kennedys first calls on Monday (Dec. 15, the day she telephoned Patterson) was to an abortion rights group, indicating she will be strongly pro-choice.

The whole family is an abortion.
Yes, but the American people trust them. Even GWB said long before EMK became ill that “I like the man”, and then GWB turned over the “education” bill to EMK.
Freep-mail me to get on or off my pro-life and Catholic List:
Please ping me to note-worthy Pro-Life or Catholic threads, or other threads of interest.
Obama Says A Baby Is A Punishment
Obama: If they make a mistake, I dont want them punished with a baby.
Is THIS a surprise???
The Kennedys are pro-abortion, anti-gun, pro-illegal alien and anti-traditional American.
In short, they are perfect candidates for any office in New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Massachusetts, Maryland, California or Illinois.
The fact that so many large states are now leftist, it makes me wonder if I’m living in the right country.
The Dems believe that abortion is wonderful, not in the Hamptons or Westchester, but in the black ghettoes of Harlem, DC, Atlanta, etc. And the morons like Sharpton, Jackson, Obama, and the Kennedys, cheerlead this situation to the joy of all the black voters. They really do deserve each other.

It’s a shame her grandad isn’t still alive. He knew how to buy a Senate seat.
The Dems in the Hamptons like abortion as well. They take care of their daughters’ “mistakes” so that they don’t have to marry the wrong man, dear, and so that no one has to hold a scandal of their heads. “We’ll just PRETEND none of this EVER happened...”
“The fact that so many large states are now leftist, it makes me wonder if Im living in the right country.”
It´s summer in Chile right now.
Is there any Kennedy who isn’t pro-abortion?
Too bad Rose was not pro-abortion.
Oh, the kids could have turned out okay, if they’d been placed for adoption with decent people.
The Kennedy clan has long used the Catholic Church to deflect indiscretions. Recall the Chappaquidick Kid insisting on being photographed coming in and out of church while wearing a neck brace during hte inveistgation (and then dropping it like a bad habit once hte investigation was over). Recall also Michael Kennedy Smith making sure to be photographed while attending Mass during his trial.
They long ago lost touch with their Catholic roots. Poor Rose. Frankly, it would be shocking if any Kennedy were pro-life.
“Is there any Kennedy who isnt pro-abortion?”
Probably Rose wasn’t pro-abortion (with all those kids) but, alas, she’s dead.
Jackie didn’t want either of her kids in politics. If she were alive right now, she’d be giving Caroline some serious sh*t.
I had the same thought since this Caroline sh!+ started.
I’m trying to think of when we had an intelligent and coordinated Kennedy.
Sorry, can’t come up with any names.
Yes, I meant living Kennedys.
