Horrible thread Harry....

Ignorant Patters Lie #1: "Broad Daylight" - Fact is the accident occured no earlier than 8:00 P.M.

Ignorant Patters Lie #2: "No investigation" - Of course there was an investigation. She was at fault, but no charges were filed.

Of course all this ignores the fact that at age 17, it ain't like anyone knew she would one day be first lady. Jackass liberals love to pretend there was some sort of conspiracy where their is neither evidence of nor motive for any such thing. (Although Dan Rather has proof that she was on her cell phone at the time of collision).

In the world of liberal morons, 17 year old Laura Bush is a murderer, and Mary Jo Kopechne just got what was coming to her.

That whole family's obscene arrogance has created a situation where they believe they are above the laws. Well, they may be above the laws of man but they are not above the laws of physics. Which was the one who got killed when he skiied smack into a tree while playing football..? He could have easily killed an innocent person (like Teddy killed Mary Jo) but fortuntately he only killed himself.

QuiGon

Yeah..!! How dare you make a thread that doesn't bash Bush..!! We just want to keep the crimes of the Kennedy family hushed up..!! Don't ever do this again..!!

We'll never know about Laura Bush. While I did get the time wrong, apparently there were no obstructions, it was a clear night, and the stop sign for Laura Bush was clearly visible. Laura ran the stop sign and crashed into the guy killing him, something not too dissimilar to Kennedy crashing off a bridge and killing Mary Joe Kopechne.

The investigation, if you want to call it that, did not test her for alcohol and even the part about the speed limit was illegible in the 2 page "investigative" report.

Let's face it, Bush was a probably drug addict and an alcoholic. A pathetic man like that would have to settle for a child butcher like Laura.

At any rate, Harry was trying to point out a double standard, and you have certainly supported my point by your overarching defense of Laura Bush (who I presume is not guiltier of "murder" than Ted Kennedy).

No one has ever said Jo Kopechne got what was coming to her. But, of course, you resort to invective and exaggerations because it's all you have, poor boy.

Except for the fact that one was a 17 year old girl with little driving experience and the other was a 37 year old U.S. Senator who was drunk as a skunk leaving a party with his mistress.

Yeah, but other than that those accidents are completely the same

Wow... thanks for showing us all what you're made of. Just when I think a liberal can't act like an even bigger scumbag degenerate, they always manage to find some way to go even lower. (Clarification: The term "liberal" in the preceeding sentence is merely meant as an abstract. I am most certainly not using it to refer to any individual in particular).

Patters

The young woman didn't know what a stop sign was? Pleeez.

And now you once again return to personal attacks. Haven't you learned yet that those are against the rules of the forum?

QuiGon

I am sure she knew what a stop sign was just as I am sure she didn't see the stop sign on her road. She probably wasn't paying attention and a tragedy ensued. Happens all the time with teenagers. So what should they have done...? Thrown her in jail...?
Excuse me, but I most certainly did not resort to a personal attack. As I clearly stated in my "clarification", I am referencing liberals in general.

Maybe if you actually applied the rules of this forum fairly and equally, your "authority" in here wouldn't be such a joke. But no... in your true gestapo fashion, you censor only those of opposing political views.

Patters

Sure, why not? Isn't that how many right wingers handles juveniles these days? Or only black ones? At any rate, the same attitude you're applying to her was commonly applies to drunk drivers prior to the advent of MADD, which succeeded in toughening up the laws.

That was a personal attack.

You're so self-absorbed that you don't notice any of the other warnings.

Do any of these skeletons have anything to do with the legislation these people write or the policies they enact? Both sides have characters with bad backgrounds. John Vitter likes the prostitutes, Kennedy likes to drink and drive. Why can't we focus on what they actually do in office for 5 minutes w/out ad hominems. Non-serious v. serious politics. And G.W. got a DUI remember? he could have just as easily killed someone. Karl Rove: breaking and entering etc. etc. Yes it's enfuriating that because of these people's class and economic status within the power elite, they are unaccountable, but that's not a Republican v. Democratic issue, it's a structural critique of our society.
