Ted Kennedy is writing a children's book describing the DC legislative process from the point of view of his dog, Splash. Yes, Splash.

I'm not clear what to get out of that, other than that Ted Kennedy is an inherent joke for complete ******* morons to those who a) have no appreciation of the lives of those whom have suffered, and b) enjoy making cheap ******* jokes at no expense whatever. No one died, but it's just a good joke.
Ha. Ha. Ha.
And he should never try to do good again, but should simply never mention water.
Hilarious. And deep. We all have learned.
Maybe it was something funnier, perhaps. Something about what Bobby did in '67, or what Teddy ever did to help someone.
Hard to tell, here.
I'm sure it was hilarous. Because, after all, Teddy Kennedy had no tragedy with death and water. It's all just a cheap joke, at someone else's expensive. How admirable. How impressive. How much better it makes the person reaching for it.
We're all smarter. We've all reached greater moral depths.
