Has anyone been following this story (http://www.cnn.com/2006/POLITICS/05/04/kennedy.accident/index.html) about Teddy's little boy getting drunk, nearly killing a cop, and crashing his car into a barracade? One thing that perplexed me yesterday was why someone would make a statement like this? Why say this? Was there some question as to whether he was drinking? As the story continues to unfold, it is quite evident that Patrick Kennedy got a pass. That said, if I am ever pulled over or stopped for drunk driving, I am going to ask for the same. One thing though in Patrick's case. At least he did not have a young girl with him at the time of the accident like good ole' Ted! Thoughts?
Of course they thought he was drinking, he is a kenedy. He said that it was drugs that were given by a doctor that caused him to black out. even if from a doctor, it is still against the law to drive under the influence. They should check his trunk for the dead hooker!
The only two good kennedy's were murdered...the leftovers are nothing but leftovers. Scum in my opinion. I'm referring to the politicians, not the family...and definitely not the son.
Whether you believe in them or not; they exist! You know, I'm really hard pressed to believe that even if he hit a SUV and killed 4 kids, he still would be "going into rehab" and not the slammer.
The story may go a bit beyond what the CNN article reports. According to the article I read, one of the officers says he smelled alcohol on Kennedy's breath, but the senior Capital officer on the scene ordered the cops to forego the sobriety test. How much you wanna bet that the senior officer gets a promotion?
Could you imagine how much kleenex stock would be right now, if it were someone related to Bush, or for that matter, any republican? Dems and moonbats would have our streets filled with tears and calls for impeachment and investigations. Harry Knutts (oops, I mean Reid) would hold press conference after press conference complaining that this is just another republican cover up and another example of a republican admistration that is not forthcoming with information. Sounds familiar.
My utlimate take is that Kennedy was intitially given a pass not so much because of who he is, or because of Daddy (I murdered a young girl doing the same thing some years ago) Kennedy, but because the Capital Police have enough on their plate with the McKinney thing. I am pretty sure the cops were worried that if they took action against Kennedy, they would have been accussed of racial profiling!
It's not just Dems that are scumbags, it's ALL politicians, don't kid yourselves. Also, Bush got a DUI himself and had the cocaine issues. There all a bunch of scumbags IMO. Just some more than others, but theyre all nasty people in one way or another...
