Kennedy jokes are a beloved GOP pastime. It’s the family that keeps on giving, and they may continue to entertain us for years to come. Like father, like son?
Yesterday morning, Patrick Kennedy, ran his car into one of those concrete barriers they’ve erected around the Capitol. He’s claiming he was under the influence of sleeping pills, but witnesses saw him drinking at the Hawk and Dove. I heard a Capitol Police union rep on the radio this morning saying that Kennedy smelled of alcohol, but was given a pass instead of a breathalyzer.
You can write your own jokes or post your favorites. Here are some Teddy jokes to give you the basic idea.
“Tabloids are reporting that Sen. Ted Kennedy has an illegitimate 21 year-old son. Apparently, Kennedy isn’t denying the report, but the kid is.” –Conan O’Brien
“Sen. Ted Kennedy is writing a children’s book with his dog, from the dog’s point of view. Sen. Ted Kennedy has a dog named Splash. Is that the best name for Ted Kennedy’s dog? Isn’t that like that Jack Abramoff guy naming his dog Bribe?” –Jay Leno
“Ted Kennedy called for Rumsfeld’s resignation. This is interesting. This marks the first time Kennedy has ever come out against anything with rum in it.” –Conan O’Brien
“Declassified papers report that John Kennedy was taking eight different medications a day. He was so wasted, his Secret Service code name was Ted Kennedy.” —Craig Kilborn

UPDATE: From Jay Leno via NewsMax:
Ted Kennedy’s son, Congressman Patrick Kennedy, crashed his car into a barricade on capitol hill at three o’clock this morning. The head of Kennedy’s office said “no alcohol was involved.” See, that’s why it’s a huge story - a Kennedy involved in a car accident with no alcohol involved, that’s never happened before.
From Bill Maher:
Patrick Kennedy crashed his car and said he doesn’t remember anything about the accident, except a huge sense of relief when he came to and he wasn’t soaking wet.

My friend has a daughter who lives in DC. This accident happened a block from her apt. She said it is a well known fact that this is the reputation of the young Mr. Kennedy: “Susie Q said everyone says he is a sleazy guy and is always chasing young interns and always drinking. He is well known around the hill for boozing and chasing young girls.
I guess I should feel sorry for the guy considering look who he had as a role model, Ted Kennedy. Is it a Kennedy thing, they don’t remember??????? Amazing how Ted Kennedy knew to get out of the car when the woman was in it drowning!!!
I feel sorry for poor Joan Kennedy- imagine what she put up with for years and then became a drunk over it and last I heard was a bag ladya once gorgeous, smart woman and look what Ted did to that poor woman!!!”
This is what you call “keeping the family tradition alive.”
