Spinning Kennedy For 40 Years

imageIn Massachusetts, everyone just loves Senator Ted Kennedy. In the Boston media, this man can do no wrong, especially now because of his illness, but we all know there are things few of us could get away with but he did simply because he’s a Democrat and (more importantly) a Kennedy.

Today marks the 40th anniversary of the death of Mary Jo Kopechne, killed July 18, 1969 after leaving a party with Senator Edward Kennedy. That night, Kennedy drove his car off a bridge, and left the scene with Kopechne still in the submerged vehicle; he did not call the police until the following morning.

Perhaps the most egregious example of the liberal media planting a pro-Kennedy spin on Chappaquiddick came in a January 5, 2003 Boston Globe Magazine profile of Kennedy:

“If she had lived, Mary Jo Kopechne would be 62 years old. Through his tireless work as a legislator, Edward Kennedy would have brought comfort to her in her old age.â€

We all know what would happen to any of us had we walked away from the scene of an accident where someone died. Continuing on as a United States senator would not be one of them.

Remember that while Ted Kennedy continues to be celebrated.

Yeah we are living in the TWILIGHT ZONE!!!!

Happy anniversary, eddie.
its been 40 years since you were the reason a young woman died while you were driving drunk yet your power and your families money bought off the problems and you were given a two months suspended sentence for leaving the scene of an accident when you should have been charged with DUI manslaughter. I see that you continue to keep lying today, just as you did 40 years ago when you claimed loud noise around your hotel room woke you up.

Lying scumbag.

we all know where the final judgement will come from and i hope that you rot in hell
