All I know is if Caroline wants it, it’s hers. Nuff said…

You’re probably right. If she wants it, it’s hers. Most people have to work for such things, but some obviously do not.

I take it you live in New York.

Let’s see… Sarah Palin is a woman and a mother…

Much worse was said about her than was said of Kennedy…
Where were the howls against the “Sexist Remarks” then?

Caroline especially has that listless quality that comes from too much intermarrying between royalty. She needs a steak or a transfusion. Some NPR idiot declared that Caroline is “smart and beautiful” and only an idiot on NPR would call this woman beautiful. What I don’t understand is why, with all that money, Caroline couldn’t afford dental work? Was she trying to look more British? One would think that given the money and access to top-level makeup, hair and clothing (including couture and stuff to slather on your face made from eel anuses or something that
costs $2000/oz) Caroline Kennedy would be the most beautiful woman in the universe!

Ya think???

The only ‘Kennedy’ I ever liked was Jackie, and she married into it. She too was an elitest, but she had the good sense to take her children out of the political limelight. Carolyn is a rich, spoiled woman who knows jack about the real world and the people who inhabit it. She should be made to live a year with ‘real people’ on their budgets with all of their problems before she has the gall to take a seat that will only enhance her self-worth. Actually, all of these so-called do-gooders should try being ‘real’ for a time before they try to do what is best for us.

Caroline Kennedy wrote a couple relatively shallow “analyses” of parts of the Constitution, and edited some poetry books. Does anyone really believe these two would have these “accomplishments” without identity politics?

Caroline, JFK’s genetic daughter, is actually Onassis’ step-daughter. She grew up Onassis’ charge far away from America, and harbored antagonism for that hurtful place (as though Greece or Greek tycoons shed no blood). Carolyn was raised AWAY from the Kennedy Klan in order that her mother’s wish to wash their hands of politics be realized. Finally widowed twice, Jackie and kids return to the USA aka NYC to live absolutely insulated aristocratic lives, Jackie thriving independently in her publication editorial position, her wish for her children to remain aloof of their Kennedy political affiliations being respected even as she enjoyed influential activity within the literary intelligentsia that determine what we think of what we are permitted to read that they publish.

John’s GEORGE spearheaded by anyone else would never have been seriously recognized. It lacked substance, depth, perception. Though the “Kennedy Prince” venture, GEORGE FAILED. John failed to learn from his mother what makes for good reading. And despite all of her help via instruction and example, John was another Kennedy failure.

Had anything that Caroline authored been written by an unknown person, those works would not have been endorsed, published or sold by the most influential firms.

Caroline Kennedy’s only claim to fame is her name association. And that Kennedy name’s legend is whole cloth. With Teddy ready to croak, the Klan is frantic to remain on the nation’s front burner. And Carolyn has reached her own mid-life identity crisis. So far as Carolyn is concerned, she now deserves her own sword to wield from her ivory tower that resembles a sort of senate. She knows that if Teddy could get away with murder to become the most prominent neo-liberal senator, she can at least do likewise. Motivated by the same corrupted inversion of public service as power mongering that begat her birth and provided her lavishly private cosmopolitan life, she is more than willing to provide her familial whole cloth legend with her facade as the heroine to culminate Teddy’s dreams.

That Teddy’s agenda destroyed her own father’s vision is of no matter to Caroline. She’s just a pawn in the global Marxist regime destroying the middle-class. No matter to her; as ever, she’s an untouchable faux princess. Marxism is the venue by which feudalism returns, and all is determined by power of conquest. So Caroline fulfills her Camelot fabrication feigning the virgin princess though being the essence of figurative incest or the most grotesque corruption. She dashes her mother’s Will AND the conservatism in JFK’s platform and presidency.

If ANYONE is to be faulted for historical revisionism, for the legitimization of Obama’s radically Socialist POTUS bid and enabling his victory while celebrating the demise of any Conservative voice in journalism, it is Caroline Kennedy.

I do not support any venture endorsed by Caroline Kennedy (Onassis) Schlossberg.

Not the Clintons.

Not the Kennedys.

Not the New York Times, the New York Post, whoever!

It should be the PEOPLE who decide.

Where the heck did Hillary Clinton get this insane notion that she had some kind of entitlement bestowed on her to pass on her seat to whoever SHE felt was better qualified?

At this point in time, she doesn’t have a damned thing to say about it!

I am SO SICK on the Clintons! I sincerely wish the whole lot of them would just go away!

Best part of that interview was the petition to stop her appointment. JUST SAY NO TO KENNEDY NEW YORK.

Obama wrote two books, both about himself; Caroline Kennedy wrote a couple relatively shallow “analyses” of parts of the Constitution, and edited some poetry books. Does anyone really believe these two would have these “accomplishments” without identity politics?

Enough already! I’ve seen no evidence that either of these people (as well as virtually everyone on the Left) should be considered brilliant, or even particularly bright. Perhaps we should take Obama’s tack every time someone says how smart Obama, Kennedy, etc. is, by saying, “He’s smart enough.”

Don’t most New Yorkers look down on DC anyway? Wouldn’t this appointment be a ‘step down’ for most New Yorkers?

2008 qualifications for being a US Senator:

- a woman
- a mother

Senator, yes. Vice President, NOOOO!!!!

Would Caroline Kennedy make a good senator? She probably would, but what troubles me about this is the undercurrent of “If Caroline wants it, it’s hers” mentality that we’re all supposed to sign on to. That’s not American.

And why must the Kennedys trot out one of their own most despicable whores to do Caroline’s bidding? Caroline should know better. And this nitwit wrote a book about being Catholic? Let me tell what that’s all about — that’s about a suburban slut trying to assuage her own Catholic guilt by gathering and regurgitating the musings about the Catholic Church from other wonderful Catholics such as Bill Maher and Susan Sarandon.

Hello?!

MEOW……………scratch scratch scratch!!!!!!

I am a registered voter and long time resident of Illinois, and I don’t know if you guys are aware of this, but my cousin Ed is one of my strongest supporters in my bid to be appointed Senator here in the great Land of Lincoln.

I’ve got a degree in Business Administration, a degree in Economics, specialized training at the ABA’s Commercial Lending School, decades of hands on business experience, a safe driver certificate (despite having actually nailed a jaywalking pedestrian once), no DUIs, despite an adulthood of sometimes conspicuous alcohol consumption, no drug arrests that you know of, and a flawless four year record of mortgage lending under the licensing requirements of Rod Baloneyvich and Lisa Madigan’s Illinois Department of Financial and Professional Regulation.

I am a member in good standing of the NRA, and the local library, dues are current at the health club (OK, my wife works there, so I get in free), and my friends at church think I’m … OK, I guess. I volunteer at the homeless shelter.

I’m thinking, Senator, right?

Don’t sell yourself short like that! Set your sights on DC!

What was in the studio that smelled so rank that Kennedy was made to look like that?

What is more objectionable: Blagojevich’s craven bargaining or the possibility that Patterson might bestow a senate seat on Caroline Schlossberg because it would be just so cute?

Any polling out there about whether New Yorkers, one of the more risible Americans there are, think about CK being a senator?

Apologetic California on December 16, 2008 at 6:36 PM

Please. Let’s get with the program. Not that she’s almost ready to be appointed, she is CBK. Must be three initials.
