The widow of Sen. Ted Kennedy (D-Mass.) is preparing for the upcoming opening of the institute named after her late husband.
Vicki Kennedy invited “Fox News Sunday” to the Edward M. Kennedy Institute for the United States Senate in Boston days before President Obama visits to formally open it to the public.
“He loved public service,” Vicki Kennedy said. “He believed in making a difference. And he wanted to inspire new generations to feel the same way.”

It’s CAME A LOT. It’s easy to get it mixed up when you push all the letters together.
Ted did inspire Michael Phillips and Mark Spitz.
To what? Knock young innocent women up and then kill them? Quite inspiring, no?
Perhaps the same reason why it’s okay to cheat on your spouse as a leftist. Just guessing!
Knock gullible women up, then kill them to cover up your own tracks. Did anyone ever figure out if the Kopechne girl was pregnant?
It certainly put the nation on the path to destruction.
Yes. It changed the country forever. As a single senator, Ted Kennedy did far more damage to this nation than many presidents.
The “institute” probably another way to hide kennedy money from taxes. Only we peons pay taxes.
Drinks are on the house.
There was no autopsy. The parents of Mary Jo didn’t want to go through an exhumation.
They had already been made an offer they couldn’t refuse.
That is that morons entire life story, fat, drunk and stupid. “Errrabah! My immigration act will not change the demographics of the country! Errrabah!”
Ted was slime.
Pure slime.
Were he to not have inherited falsely earned money, he would have flunked out of ditch digging school and died of drugs.
So very fitting for a liberal dim-bulb- crat.
The family is an ideal example of low IQ, and even lower morals.
Hey Ted, say hi to Bin Laden down there.
Carr: Editing Ted Kennedy World: Some facts didn’t make ‘Institute’ cut
Sunday, March 29, 2015
By: Howie Carr
When Ted Kennedy wrote his initial account of Chappaquiddick for the Edgartown police in 1969, after he scrawled the words “Mary Jo” in the first sentence he left a blank space — because he had no idea what his victim’s last name was.
That’s one of the many facts about Ted Kennedy that you won’t learn by visiting the new Edward M. Kennedy Institute for the United States Senate. In case you haven’t been eagerly anticipating this magic moment, the “Institute” opens tomorrow amid yet another orgy of shameless bum-kissing of what was once called “America’s First Family” by the mainstream media.
It will be a monument to the bum who did more to destroy America than any other person. At Teddy’s funeral Obama called him “the soul of the Democratic party.”
Enough said.
Ted was named after Edward Moore, his father’s faithful procurer.
This white elephant on Columbia Point was supposed to be paid for exclusively with private donations. Liberals are, after all, so generous — they’ll always give you the shirt off somebody else’s back. But the reality is that the Beautiful People throw around quarters like manhole covers, and once Teddy was dead, what good could he do them?
So the federal taxpayers (that’s you and me) are on the hook for $38 million, and the state (ditto) got clipped for another $5 million.
It’s an “interactive museum,” and for the kiddies, there is what is called a “Senate Immersion Module.” Yes, immersion. Although presumably not in the backseat of a 1967 Oldsmobile Delmont.

Hmmmm, I wonder what MaryJo would think of all this.
Vicki’s brother.

Prosecutors claim Raymond Reggie billed car dealerships $1.2 million for ad purchases he never made

Federal prosecutors in Baton Rouge have pegged the value of the fraud committed by politically connected Mandeville businessman Raymond Reggie against a group of south Louisiana car dealerships at roughly $1.2 million.
Reggie, son of the late Crowley City Judge Edmund Reggie and a brother-in-law of the late U.S. Sen. Ted Kennedy, pleaded guilty in October to five counts of mail fraud and is scheduled to be sentenced June 4.
U.S. District Judge Shelly Dick set that date Monday.
Reggie, who previously worked on many high-profile Democratic campaigns, including those of former President Bill Clinton, is accused of stealing from Slidell-based Supreme Automotive Group and Super Chevy Dealers of Baton Rouge while acting as a media consultant for the group of car dealerships.
Supreme’s members have dealerships in Gonzales, Plaquemine and other locations in southeast Louisiana.
Prosecutors say Reggie billed the dealerships for advertising that was never purchased.
In a motion requesting the issuance of a preliminary order of forfeiture, Assistant U.S. Attorney James Thompson says Reggie fraudulently received more than $1.2 million from Supreme Automotive Group and Super Chevy Dealers of Baton Rouge between September 2008 and July 2012.
“As a result of Reggie supplying numerous false advertising expenses to SAG and SCDBR during the period,” Thompson wrote, “he caused SAG and SCDBR to issue approximately 138 checks totaling approximately $1,217,657.36.”
Dick signed the preliminary order last month, stating it will become final at the time of Reggie’s sentencing and will be made part of his sentence.
The U.S. Probation Office filed Reggie’s presentence investigation report into the court record last week. It is sealed.
Reggie, who has a previous federal conviction, was sentenced to a year in prison about a decade ago for bank fraud.
He pleaded guilty in 2005 to one count of conspiracy to commit bank frauds that cost Hibernia National Bank of New Orleans $3.4 million — Capital One bought Hibernia that year — and Biz Capital of Metairie $3.3 million. U.S. District Judge Carl Barbier in New Orleans also ordered Reggie to pay full restitution to both banks.
Edmund Reggie headed former President John F. Kennedy’s presidential campaign in Louisiana and also served as executive counsel during the second term of former Gov. Edwin Edwards.
The elder Reggie ran into tax problems in the latter part of his life and he was convicted of misapplying funds of now-closed Acadia Savings and Loan of Crowley, a thrift he founded in 1959. He pleaded no contest in 1993 to misapplying $425,000 in the form of a loan by Acadia Savings. He paid a $30,000 fine and was suspended from the practice of law for a time.
“The Kennedy Institute for People Who Don’t Drive Good”
Old man Kennedy was a crook. He ran the Irish Mafia and smuggled booze during prohibition.

Joe Kennedy was a crook as were others. Control of scotch whiskey in the 1930’s.
He loved to be serviced in public.
