Contractors and vendors donated their services or slashed their rates for the promise of free publicity. There were offers of “platinum sponsorships” and talk of tours to showcase the mansion and its products. Home-improvement TV host Bob Vila started filming a show chronicling the construction, “Our Green House,” for NBC. It does not appear the show ever aired.

“He didn’t think he should pay for anything; even the suits he wears were donated,” a source said of RFK Jr. “He felt people should pay for him. He had an enormous sense of entitlement.”

Once a crook, always a crook. Nice legacy.

Hopefully he reported the gifts and donations to the IRS.

Now five months after Mary Richardson Kennedy’s suicide at the sprawling estate in Bedford,her husband is set to make a windfall.

Do you know the joy that fills the heart of a heroin addict to hear such words?

I think it is a pretty safe bet that he didn’t. Afterall, he is a Kennedy. They are special.

Poor woman,when she married that heroin addict she probably thought that he's stop whoring with 100 different women,that he'd treat *her* with respect and decency and that he'd put down the syringe for good.she paid for her naivete with her life.

Nobody freeloads like a Kennedy.

Or as my Irish Catholic Dad (RIP) told me 50 yrs ago,

“A Kennedy is somebody who wants to give your money to the poor and get credit for doing it”.

She looks like him, bless her heart. Her death got me to go to marriage counseling, so I’ll be saying Rosaries for her for the rest of my life.

He claimed she called him and said, “You were right about everything. It’s all my fault.” And I said, “I say that all the time.” And then I said, “Oh, sh*t, what the blithering bleepin freep is wrong with me?”

And now, after a couple of months of therapy - in which my husband had the therapist completely snowed - I know what’s happened, and I know what I can do, and I’m the person who somehow produced Anoreth, the world’s toughest 5’1” pirate hunter.

Thank you, Mary. I’ll see you.

what irritates me is that the left wing morons will jump all over someone like Romney who had to work to make his own fortune, then declare he is out of touch with the middle class,

then the Kennedy’s whom never had to work a day in their entire lives, (Rich Welfare Recipients), they are somehow more “in touch” with the common man. Perhaps that is why they all believe in government handouts.

Rich grandpa gave them everything without any work, and they believe Uncle Sam should do the same for worthless, non-producers like themselves.

think i understand now.

blessings, bobo

What's the Kennedy dead-women body-count now?

Teddy: Killed one woman in his car.
RFK Jr: Drove wife to suicide.
Cousin Shakel: Clubbed neighbor girl to death.
JFK Jr.: Killed two women (and self) in his airplane.
JFK/RFK(?): Helped Marilyn Monroe along path to suicide.

Am I missing any?

and yet he claimed he had to sell the house because she ran up a load of debt renovating it

I just have to believe this selfish pos will face karmic justice for being such a miserable soul in his time on earth

It seems that most democrats, especially the politically well connected and the well heeled, have the MOOCHER GENE.

They are almost all grifters and scammers.

Look at the entire Kennedy Klan, Al Gore, the Clintons, the Obamas - If they don’t have their hand in your pocket it is only because they already have your wallet.

re: “A Kennedy is somebody who wants to give your money to the poor and get credit for doing it”.

Perfect.
It applies to other liberals as well. It would make a great bumpersticker.
