This idiot is the son of Senator Ted Kennedy (one of the few Teddy admits to) and a Member of the House of Representatives from Rhode Island. Like father, like son I guess. I think Teddy taught him how to crash drunk. He's a chip off the old block. KENNEDY CAR CRASH COVER-UP? Thu May 04 2006 17:12:05 ET
Police labor union officials asked acting Chief Christopher McGaffin this afternoon to allow a Capitol Police officer to complete his investigation into an early-morning car crash involving Rep. Patrick Kennedy (D-R.I.), son of Sen. Ted Kennedy.
ROLL CALL reports: According to a letter sent by Officer Greg Baird, acting chairman of the USCP FOP, the wreck took place at approximately 2:45 a.m. Thursday when Kennedy's car, operating with its running lights turned off, narrowly missed colliding with a Capitol Police cruiser and smashed into a security barricade at First and C streets Southeast.
“The driver exited the vehicle and he was observed to be staggering,” Baird’s letter states. Officers approached the driver, who “declared to them he was a Congressman and was late to a vote. The House had adjourned nearly three hours before this incident. It was Congressman Patrick J. Kennedy from Rhode Island.”
Baird wrote that Capitol Police Patrol Division units, who are trained in driving under the influence cases, were not allowed to perform basic field sobriety tests on the Congressman. Instead, two sergeants, who also responded to the accident, proceeded to confer with the Capitol Police watch commander on duty and then “ordered all of the Patrol Division Units to leave the scene and that they were taking over.”
A source tells the DRUDGE REPORT: "It was apparent that the driver was intoxicated (stumbling) and claimed he was in a hurry to make a vote.
"When it became apparent who it was, instead of processing a normal DWI, the watch commander had the Patrol units clear the scene. The commander allowed other building officials drive Kennedy home."
This morning's incident comes just over two weeks after Kennedy was involved in a car accident in Rhode Island.

This is about the crash he had in Rhode Island on April 15th, 2006. Boston Herald By Howie Carr, Boston Herald Columnist Wednesday, April 26, 2006 - Updated: 01:05 AM EST
[Excerpt]
A male member of the Kennedy family has been involved in an automobile accident that was totally his fault.
Stop me if you’ve heard this one before.
Fortunately, this time no one suffocated in a ’67 Oldsmobile Delmont at the bottom of a tidal pond.
Come on down, Patches Kennedy, Boy Congressman from Rhode Island.
And what’s up with Patches this spring? First he takes a hammer to the mouth in Pawtucket, and now he’s driving around Rhode Island like an idiot, or should I say, a Kennedy?
Does Patches have some issues - I mean, other than the ones we already know about, the “medications,” the boat, the women, the fact that he’s more incoherent than his worthless father and is generally dumber than two rocks.
This time, the question must be asked, what’s up with Patches’ handwriting? Check out the Portsmouth Police Department accident report he filled out. Is that the handwriting of a 38-year-old member of Congress?
It looks like it was written by a chimpanzee, or a 2-year-old. Or a Kennedy. Bounce: I found it and posted it below.
It was Saturday, April 15 - Tax Day, not that that means much to a Kennedy. They want to raise your taxes, not theirs. Just ask Ted which state they filed Grandma’s will in. (Hint: it wasn’t Massachusetts.)
Patches’ trust fund bought him a house in Portsmouth, R.I., a few years back. On this Tax Day, at 10 a.m., he was on his way to the local drug store - fill in your own Patches Kennedy-at-the-DRUG-store joke here. It was a CVS.
Patches was behind the wheel of a 2003 Crown Vic - a gas guzzler, but then, like taxes, fuel conservation is something for the Little People to worry about, not one of the Beautiful People. The Ford is owned, by the way, by The Friends of Pat Kennedy, Inc. Must be nice.
So Patches is trying to turn off Turnpike Avenue into the CVS parking lot, and he’s in a hurry . . . if you know what I mean. Why should a Kennedy have to wait until the car with the right of way goes by in the other direction?
As one witness put it:
“A vehicle was in front of V#2 (the Patches mobile) making a left into CVS, and that V#2 turned directly behind the unidentified vehicle turning without hesitation.”
Didn’t the other driver know who he was?
The other motorist, a 46-year-old guy from Bristol, slammed his 2000 Nissan into Patches’ Crown Vic. By Kennedy standards, it was a fender-bender. Not only did not a single blonde die, no one was even paralyzed, or raped. Of course, Patches’ no doubt extremely urgent trip to the drugstore was delayed, which may be the cause of his almost indecipherable scribbling. Dammit, he needed some more . . . shampoo?
A call was placed to his Rhode Island office yesterday, but was not returned. I am somewhat puzzled by the police officer’s description of Patches’ physical condition:
“Appeared Normal.”

The rotten apple doesn't fall far from the crabapple tree. I hope he gets nailed for good before he does something else dear old daddy did to some new Mary Jo.

Here's Kennedy's response. OF COURSE I BELIEVE HIM! DON'T YOU? ? Vomit!
WASHINGTON (AP) - Rep. Patrick Kennedy crashed his car near the Capitol early Thursday, and a police official said he appeared intoxicated. Kennedy said he had taken sleep medication and a prescription anti-nausea drug that can cause drowsiness.
Kennedy, D-R.I., addressed the issue after a spate of news reports. His initial statement said, "I consumed no alcohol prior to the incident."
Later, however, he issued a longer statement saying the attending physician for Congress had prescribed Phenergan on Tuesday to treat Kennedy's gastroenteritis, an inflammation of the stomach and intestines.
Kennedy said he returned to his Capitol Hill home on Wednesday evening after a final series of votes in Congress and took "prescribed" amounts of Phenergan and Ambien, another prescribed drug that he occasionally takes to fall asleep.
"Some time around 2:45 a.m., I drove the few blocks to the Capitol Complex believing I needed to vote," his second statement said. "Apparently, I was disoriented from the medication."
Kennedy appeared to be intoxicated when he crashed his Ford Mustang into a barrier on Capitol Hill early Thursday morning, said Louis P. Cannon, president of the Washington chapter of the Fraternal Order of Police.
Cannon, who was not there, said the officers involved in the accident were instructed by an official "above the rank of patrolman" to take Kennedy home.
No sobriety tests were conducted at the scene.
A letter written by a Capitol Police officer to Acting Chief Christopher McGaffin said Kennedy appeared to be staggering when he left the vehicle after the crash about 3 a.m. The letter was first reported by Roll Call, a Capitol Hill newspaper.
Kennedy said he was late for a vote, officer Greg Baird said in the letter to McGaffin. Baird is acting chairman of the Capitol Hill chapter of the FOP police union. The last vote of the night had occurred almost six hours earlier.
Kennedy said he was driven home by Capitol police.
"At no time did I ask for any special consideration," he said. "I simply complied with what the officers asked me to do."
Kennedy, the son of Sen. Edward M. Kennedy, D-Mass., and his staff declined to discuss any further details of the accident. The congressman took part in House votes Thursday.
Capitol Police did not immediately return phone calls for comment. They issued a one-line statement saying they were investigating a traffic violation that occurred early in the morning at that location.
Baird wrote McGaffin that two sergeants who responded to the accident conferred with the watch commander and were ordered to leave the scene.
He said that after the officers left, Capitol Police officials gave Kennedy a ride home.
Kennedy spent time at a drug rehabilitation clinic before he went to Providence College. He has been open about mental health issues, including being diagnosed with bipolar disorder.

The AP reports that a cocktail waitress has come forward and said that SHE SAW KENNEDY at a bar before the accident.
I wonder how long it will take the Left's machine to destroy HER.

Kennedy's & reciprocating engines - a bad mix. Apparently the only laws they're subject to, are the laws of physics.
Remember THIS ONE?:
Clinton Aide Is Charged After Car Accident September 9, 1995, Saturday (AP); National Desk
Late Edition - George Stephanopoulos, a senior Presidential aide, was charged with leaving the scene of an accident late Thursday and driving with an expired license and license plates. Mr. Stephanopoulos was arrested at 11:45 P.M. on Thursday. He was accused of damaging the fender of a parked car as he drove away from the scene. A metro DC Police officer apparently watched him "pull forward & reverse, bashing his way out of the parking space", then pull away before the Officer could stop him. The officer stated that initially, Mr Stephanopoulis appeared to be intoxicated.
Georgie-boy ended up with no fine, no DUI, and his expired license was "under the 90-day renewal grace period".

Stephanopolisosis is a piece of of work. My brother lives in Georgetown not far from Stephofuckitlis. Turns out Clintons boy has a habbit of letting his dog run off the leash and it just takes off. One day Tom looks out the kitchen window and theres a cop car driving down the street...going the wrong way! (it's a one way street). Then he sees a cop shouting and chasing Crapalotalis' dog. By the time Tom gets outside the cop is lying on the ground across the street so Tom runs up to him and he's got no pulse, Tom starts CPR and help shortly arrives. Long story short, a Washington D.C. patrolman died chasing that bastards dog cause he's to lazy to walk it on a leash. Tom can't stand him or Clinton and he's one of the Liberals in my family!

Kennedy's & reciprocating engines - a bad mix. Apparently the only laws they're subject to, are the laws of physics. All I can say is that it is TOO DAMN BAD that driving is done from a seated position. If they had to be able to STAND UP to do it, Mary Jo might be alive today!

Something that came to mind earlier when we were talking about this. In Florida, if you have an accident and you tell the cop "I just took some medication for _______ ." you get charged for DUI. So why has Little Ted not been charged? (more of a rhetorical question)
