RUSH: Talk about how things have changed, in my first year, sometime between August of 1988 and September of 1989, there was a woman that called here, and she’s a big fan, and she was scared to death that I was going to be arrested for some of the things I was saying about the Kennedys, in public. And she was serious.
We were playing a song, a parody of The Wanderer, by DiMucci, Dion DiMucci, called <>a href=https://www.rushlimbaugh.com/videos/?groupId=5&episodeId=0?autoplay=true#!/38/27071/The-Philanderer>The Philanderer, sung by Ted Kennedy, and this woman was scared to death I was gonna get arrested. And she was serious! “You can’t say things like that about the Kennedys in public.” It hit me at that time, can you imagine what — she’s just a common citizen. She had not been arrested for anything herself. You just didn’t say these things in public, you just didn’t, and not get arrested for it or have some trouble descend upon you.
CHAPPAQUIDDICK Official Trailer (2018) Kate Mara, Jason Clarke Drama Movie HD
Speaking of the Kennedys, folks, you might have heard about the movie Chappaquiddick. You may have seen references to it, people talking about it. As a powerful, influential member of the media, I have seen it. And you talk about things that you can’t believe got made. I cannot believe this movie got made. This movie is exactly what happened. If this movie had been made within a year or two of the event, Ted Kennedy would have been finished then.
If the actual true story of what happened at Chappaquiddick had made the news in the immediate aftermath of the event, that would have been the end of Ted Kennedy’s political career. Chappaquiddick happened, what, 1969. And it has taken until 2018 for the truth of that event to be told in a mass media.
The movie opens April the 6th. Kate Mara plays Kopechne, plays Mary Jo Kopechne, who was left to die in a submerged car driven by Senator Kennedy, went off the Chappaquiddick bridge or the dike bridge at Chappaquiddick. He swam to safety and just told lie after lie. And the movie depicts how the Kennedy family and all in it banded together to protect Kennedy, how corrupt law enforcement was at the time.
It illustrates how the Kennedy family was living in a separate universe and were accountable for nothing that they did. And as I say, I cannot believe it got made. And it’s a real movie. It’s not some cheap knockoff that was put together in some two bit sound stage. It is a legitimate, full-fledged movie that looks every bit as majestic and theatrical as any movie of its name. I’m not talking about special effects, it’s a serious movie production. It’s not B, cheap, or any of that. And it debuts on the 6th of April. It’s amazing.
It stands to reason that it gets made after Senator Kennedy had passed away. If this had been made, come out during his life, that would be the end of his career at that moment. And it clearly illustrates that it should have been that, shortly after the event happened.
Do you remember the details of the story? (interruption) You just remember the highlights. Do you remember the Edgartown police? Do you remember Kennedy wearing the fake neck brace and all that? Public sympathy and so forth? There was no inquest. Just all kinds of things, I mean, everybody that was in law enforcement, the Kennedy family came together to rewrite that story. (interruption) Oh, she was left to die for hours before he even told anybody it had happened.
Well, the whole event was kind of suspect. It was a party. It was in July. It was on Chappaquiddick and it was a bunch of women that worked for Ted Kennedy at his office and other people. And it was a typical Kennedy drinking party, typical Easter weekend with the Kennedy family, although it wasn’t Easter. It was in the summertime. Anyway, when it comes out, I predict it’s gonna be well attended. But again, I can’t believe it got made given Hollywood of today. Or yesterday, for that matter.
If you have a “D” beside your name you can do anything.
Like I said, this movie is a day late and a dollar short.
Shoulda, woulda, coulda.
Instead, Kennedy almost single-handedly ensured the infanticide of tens of millions of slaughtered babies by Borking the one of the best Supreme Court nominees ever who almost assuredly would have cast the deciding vote to overturn Roe v. Wade.
The truth can’t be told while a Democrat still lives. When Bill, Hillary and Obama die, then we will see what really happened.
It takes 40-50 years for the people involved, their allies and interested parties to die to get the truth about politicians.
Unfortunately, I probably won’t be around then when the truth comes out about Obama.
Apparently he didn’t really need the neck brace which was a ruse to illicit sympathy for Kennedy. The Kennedy’s were fake from stem to stern.
Martin Luther King is another one who got a free pass.
It's time to open up ALL the files on Martin Luther King. The people have a right to know.
One aspect of remembering is that it happened while Apollo 11 was making its way to the moon, and the Chappaquiddick events unfolded all the while the astronauts were stepping onto lunar soil for the first time. It was easy for the media to bury the murder, and it was easy for a public to not pay much attention to it.
Dead Kennedy
He also pushed for affordable health care early in his careerin the form of HMO’s knowing that would lead to consumer issues between the insurer and the customer and eventually lead to European single payer.
What could this possibly have to do with the Civil War?
If I ran a broadcasting network, I would inform the American public about what sort of pieces of sh*t were various Democrats in history, and why they were pieces of sh*t.
The problem we see in America today is that the only the left side of the political spectrum has "freedom of speech" in the manner the founders intended. The right should also have access to broadcast network systems, and we should fight until we get control of one or more networks so that we can tell the truth about people like Ted Kennedy.
This only occurs because the left wing has complete control of the broadcasting systems in this nation. People who would tell the truth cannot put this sort of information on the air because we don't control the airwaves. The political left controls the airwaves, and I am still wondering why people don't see the problem and why they haven't insisted this disparity be corrected.
Finished him??? ROTFLMAO!!! Old Catholic women LUV their Kennedys...they vote Teddy no matter what!
His treason with the Soviets was worse. The rotten POS is buried in Arlington! I was a sergeant in the army too, bet I don’t get buried in Arlington.
