Pathetic Patrick
Treat me like I'm black, sez Teddy's son
Fresh from rehab, Rep. Patrick Kennedy said yesterday he wants to be treated like an African-American from Washington if and when he gets charged for crashing his car on Capitol Hill.
Denying that he was drunk and or that he asked the Capitol Police for preferential treatment, Kennedy, a Rhode Island congressman, said he's prepared "in terms of bookings, in terms of mug shots, fingerprints, whatever they might have me do."
"It's what anyone else would have done to them if they were an African-American in Anacostia," Kennedy said in a shaky voice, referring to the mostly minority neighborhood in southeastern Washington.
Later, Kennedy fretted that "there are probably people who want to throw the book at me a little more to prove that they're not treating me special."
Oh for christ sake Patrick, get over it. What you need to come to grips with is your father is an asshole drunk and your mother is not much better. You grew up with a tarnished silver spoon in your mouth. Now it's time to put the past behind you, the blame where it belongs and become a real MAN. This country is not willing to carry another Kennedy on it's shoe string. And I somehow doubt you did any real rehab time. If you had you sure as hell wouldn't have this attitude. But you are right, you are no better than anyone else. To compare being arrested and charged, with being black is beyond belief! If you haven't noticed arrests are not race based.
When your ready to deal in reality and really get sober, give me a shout.
Until then, quit your bitching and crying.
