The other thread got me into what a lot of younger members may not know much about.
Ted Kennedy, and Chappaquiddick, can you imagine if that would have been a Republican, then, and all the more so now?

Those born in the'60s have lived their whole life hearing/reading the medias praise of the Kennedys.

My point is, it would be interesting to hear what the media would do to a conservative for even %10 that much.

People used to say that Nixon was not trustworthy enough to buy a used car from.

There was a saying back in the day:
I might buy a used car from tricky Dick, but I sure as hell wouldn't let Ted Kennedy drive it!

Political joke from that era. Ted Kennedy was trying for the democrat nomination for president to run against Nixon. Nixon had put a man on the moon and Kennedy couldn't get a whore across a bridge.

It depends on which conservative. This sort of thing's bipartisan.

Remember the cocktail, the Chappaquiddick? Just gin and dirty water...

That's not fair to the Kopekne family.

Nothing about the entire sordid mess was fair to the family of the young Kopekene woman.
It was tragic.

The drunken louse murdered a pregnant girl and lost two brothers and a nephew for his trouble, oh well, must be that karma thing again.

True, but I was referring to the disparaging comment about a dead girl.

That is also true, my point is that the media gives such a pass to liberals.

Incorrect. There have been some fatal accidents at the Idaho National Lab in years past. Not explosive but radiation leaks.

Only reason I knew about it growing up was because of family that lived on the Cape. Just a silly thing that happened. Lore. Move on, nothing here that would interest anyone much.

No doubt, being a democrat has long been a BIG leg up when it comes to the media, how they cover; or completely avoid the 'news'


Liberalism; The impossible yet accepted notion that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd by the clean end.
