I think most states would have classified this as "manslaughter." Not much jail time, if any.
It was definitely manslaughter but the Kennedy $$$ bought off the law. How many other people with a blotch like that on their record could be elected U.S. Senator? The fact that S.O.B. has ever had the chutzpah to stand in judgment of any other human being is a miracle of human hypocrisy and gullibility.
Anne Coulter's great genius is being able to see -- and have the stones to talk about -- the elephants in our national living room. Yes, McCarthy was right. Yes, Teddy is guilty of -- but not convicted of -- manslaughter. As another poster said, she had the temerity to violate the double standard that's been in place since at least the 1960s in this country. Good on yer' Annie!!!!
