Incoming Obama administration Secretary of State Sen. Hillary Clinton has reportedly told some of her followers that she does not want her name used in their efforts to stop growing momentum for the appointment of Caroline Kennedy to serve out the re…

…peasants as peasants is fine…I’m an example of that….

…but peasants (and pissants) as royalty?

…wait until somebody gets up a movement to have Rose K. beatified…peasants as divine royalty….

…what? Couldn’t they get the Statue of Liberty to run?

…oh…that’s right…she’s in Jersey….

Oof.

Can we also enroll Patrick Kennedy?

Hell, enroll the whole Kennedy clan. What this world needs is more Kennedy’s piloting small planes in remote areas.

As the daughter of J.F.K., criticizing her will be considered out of bounds. Sacrilegious, even.

Very good, whitetop. That made me laugh.

Also, I like this:

The good news is she is training to be a private pilot.

Too soon?

Moreover, Kennedy’s selection would be a welcome sign of Paterson’s willingness to reject the politics of pander and special-interest pressures merely to satisfy some ethnic or geographic quota.

How, exactly, is selecting someone based on their family name not more specific identity politics than merely selecting someone based on their race or gender?

Too soon?

Bill O’Reilly shows class by attacking HuffPo posts that wish cancer on people or attack Mrs. Ronald Reagan. He also knows what viewers like to hear (and can tolerate) and I respect both positions. There were extremely savvy posts above on The Post’s endorsement and from our position the best was that NY would get a liberal anyway. So why bother?

I was not wishing Teddy ill out of the blue but making an editorial opinion about the political position of some progressives on euthanasia.

Oh geez, what am I thinking. By all means, bring on another empty suit to fill the empty seat, wouldn’t want someone to be out of step with the other incompetent and corrupt party hacks in the Democrat Congress.

Bill Clinton wants Chelsea for “bigger things than Hillary”, or so he said recently. Who knows what the Clintons have up their sleeves.

Sure.

Hillary might as well appoint her daughter Chelsea to take her senate seat. Didn’t she clerk for a legal firm? That makes her more qualified than Caroline.

Maybe he just admires that her grandfather was a rum runner, conveniently bailed out of the stockmarket right before the crash of ‘29, gave his daughter the gift of a frontal lobectomy and was a a great fan of the Nazis. even FDR had a problem with this guy.

Or maybe he admires the numerous sex scandals, or the way women who get near Kennedys,end up dead, drunk, on drugs or permanently disabled. Or he admires the way they reproduce in numbers because they know they have to keep ahead of the family’s self-destruction curve.

This will be so good for the liberals they can dredge up old Kennedy videos and cry about Camelot. And we will be subjected to endless rounds of sickening words like “America’s royal family,” “Princess” etc. etc.

Amazing what the liberals choose to worship. And just think Marilyn Monroe and Mary Jo won’t even get to vote.

PLEASE NEW YORKERS CALL YOUR GOVERNOR AND TELL HIM NO MORE KENNEDYS.

In which a conservative, Murdoch-owned paper peers into New York City’s talent pool and decides we can’t do better than a relic of Camelot.

Carolyn follows Hillary. Why the fuss? A relic of Camelot replaces a relic of Came-a-lot.

To the surprise of many, New York got exactly that in Hillary Rodham Clinton.
And we believe it can do so again with the appointment of Caroline Kennedy to fill Clinton’s seat.

What is in the water in New York and what does the NY Post have to gain by forwarding this foolishness?

Kennedy is a socialite and has no business governing. I this how Rome acted before its fall?

I feel your pain my friend!
