#3 "...all she wants is a crummy Senate seat." So says Kerry [Kennedy}. Why is it that people with experience in government with the name Kerry (either first or last name) are dipwads?

Maybe they are kind of crummy seats.

I'm just looking around. Congress approval ratings are pretty low. Do you think there might be good reasons?

$500,000 might get you a Senate seat in Illinois. Those are probably in the nosebleed section.

#4 Steyn:
"Hey, and who needs to make it there when you can just get appointed there? Gov. Paterson is said to be considering appointing Princess Caroline of Kennedy to Hillary Clinton's vacant Senate seat. After two and a third centuries of republican experiment, America has finally worked its way back to the House of Lords.

"Friends Say Kennedy Has Long Wanted Public Role," Anne Kornblut assured readers in an in-depth Washington Post tongue-bath. She hasn't "long wanted" it to the extent of, you know, running for dog catcher in Lackawanna and getting what's the word? "elected," but, if you have a spare Senate seat, she's graciously indicated that she'd be prepared to consider accepting it. As lady-in-waiting Anne Kornblut pointed out, Caroline is highly qualified, being "the author of several books." It's true! She's an experienced poetry editor. She edited "The Best-Loved Poems Of Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis." Jackie Kennedy wrote poems? Of course! She wrote so many poems that some are better loved than others."

#5 All of you villains who don't see the cosmic righteousness of this appointment are just low-life rabble jealous of your betters. You'd best keep your ill-bred mouths shut if you don't want to find yourselves on the receiving end of a well-deserved horsewhipping.

Damned peasants that don't know their rightful place, you lot are. Repeat after me: "Bless the Squire and all his relations; and keep us all in our proper stations."

#6 #4 Frank - you left out the best part:

"And on that cheery note let me wish you a very Hopey Changemas."

ROFLMAO. That's a keeper. :-D

#7 ....What has struck me as extraordinarily funny is that the MSM keeps referring to the Kennedy 'dynasty'. A dynasty is a family where a son (or what the hell in these PC days, a daughter) succeeds a parent in the same office. There have been TWO VERY SHORT DYNASTYS in US Presidential history. The first were the Adams, John and John Quincy.

The second were the Bushes, George H.W. and George W.

The Kennedys have only gotten close to the White House ONCE, and historical revelations have shown us since that had it not been for massive vote fraud John F. wouldn't have even made it that far. That's not a dynasty - that's a clan (in the worst sense of the word, BTW) that decided long long ago that they were entitled to rule this nation, and they're not going to let little things like voters stand in their way.

#8 Mike, what about the Harrisons? Dad and Granson, but still a dynasty. At least they skipped George.

#9 Nimble -

True, and that George could sing.
