"He was energizing the crowd"

Energizing them to do what?

Like most liberals.

Never worked - run for politics to take money from those
who do work and give it to there like minded never worked comrads at the other end of the economic spectrum.

"The Kennedy family... America's enduring shame..."

Yes, but they have had peaked and are on the decline. The Bush family on the otherhand is on the rise.

We hear that Kennedy told the crowd: "I don't need Bush's tax cut. I have never worked a f****** day in my life."

Well you got to give Patrick credit for one thing... he's the first Kennedy to tell the truth.

Is this the same speech where this budding gin blossom demanded Bush send troops to Liberia?

Recovering lawmakers

Rep. Patrick Kennedy (D-R.I.): Three years ago, Kennedy came forward at a mental-health conference and revealed his depression, use of medication and former drug abuse.

I heard one of Rush's "all time favorite" Kennedy quotes, just the other day - this was from the swimmer of Chappaquidick - It was during the clinton reelection campaign maybe of 1996.

Supposedly this one was a classic when Ted calls clinton a reelectable shrslkjalsjrls;alkjalkjdjfreseke - IOW Ted just starts speaking unintelligble gibberish (I know, I know, these jokes do write themselves - how can you tell, right?)

But Rush keeps replaying this one in a loop and each time you think you can decipher what Ted is saying but Rush said that was the joke, it's undecipherable -it's utter nonsense.

Thought I'd put that in as long as we're talking about Kennedy public bloopers. The scotch really does get to them all after awhile.

"Washington Compost"? When they print a story like this, we should show a little more respect. You know, reward good behavior.

This really is a summing up of the Kennedy Legacy, capping off 50 plus years of so-called public service.

Elected office is the next step in securing major wealth, just ask the Kennedys, Corzines, Feinsteins and the Kerrys:

peroration

\Per`o*ra"tion\, n. [L. peroratio, fr. perorate, peroratum, to speak from beginning to end; per + orate to speak. See Per-, and Oration.] (Rhet.) The concluding part of an oration; especially, a final summing up and enforcement of an argument. --Burke.

On par with Teddy's "traditional Easter holiday" ravaging local girls at the Kennedy compound.

It sounds like P.J. O'Rourke was wrong when he said of the Kennedy's that "the bogtrotter's circus has folded its tents and slinked away".

One last, classless, clown act performance was still to be.

"I don't need Bush's tax cut. I have never worked a f****** day in my life."

Sometimes, the truth comes out.

Kennedy's spokesman, Ernesto Anguilla, told us yesterday: "He was talking to the crowd; it was a rally-the-troops kind of speech about the tax cut. He was energizing the crowd and got caught up in it and used an unfortunate word, which he regrets using..."

Hilarious!
This spokesmouse thought the jaw dropping came from Kennedy's use of a profanity rather than because Kennedy was bragging to a crowd that he never worked a day in his life.
Dumb and dumber.

Is this the younger Kennedy that has the artificial leg from the knee down? If not do you know the name of the one that does and what he is doing now?

Work with a fellow who used to be neighbors of the Kennedys in Virginia. The children were loud and uncouth. One observation is that the Kennedys live and received credit just on the Kennedy name. Generally speaking, they're not that well off financially but the Kennedy name opens doors unfortunately.
