If you don't get the joke...i'm sure most of you have heard of Mary Jo Kopechne, who drowned in 1969 thanks to Kennedy. Since he's a Kennedy, he will not get in trouble for it...psh  |

Sometimes I wish I was a Kennedy or Bush, im damn well guarenteed a seat somewhere in office and I can get away with anything.

You here everyday about how some guy gets arrested and prisoned for rediculous time for stealing a maybe a couple hundred dollars at the most at some convenient store; at the same time many rich and powerful steal hundreds of thousands if not millions and happen to get away with it. Or some actor or singer getting off on some charge where an average person might be prisoned or fined rediculously on the same circumstances. |
