I read somewhere that “Kennedy” came from some obscure Irish term meaning “deformed head.” Just saying.

When it comes to Kennedy clan criticism, I’m easily agreeable.

Correct. I have noted this before concerning another Kennedy transition to room temperature, Teddy’s, I think.

From my “Little Book Of Irish Clans:” Kennedy in the Irish is O”Cinneide, from a compound word meaning “ugly-headed” or “rough-headed”.”

The Kennedys are descendants of a cousin of Brian Boru, one of the early High Kings (Ard Ri) of Ireland.

I don’t mean to make light of the Teddy’s “transition.” I just hope he begged God’s forgiveness for his dalliances and the terrible demise of Mary Jo Kopeckne for which he was personally responsible.

I feel sorry for Bobby Jr’s kids. A terrible loss. If I were Mary, I would have taken some of that ill-gotten Kennedy money and the kids and moved to Maui to get away from the horrible family.
