Ted Kennedy's Club Discriminated

When Ted Kennedy tried to chastise Supreme Court nominee Samuel Alito for his one-time membership in a group opposed to admitting more woman and minorities to Princeton, the pot was calling the kettle black:

Sen. Kennedy still belongs to a social club for Harvard students and alumni that was thrown off campus nearly 20 years ago after refusing to allow female members, an investigation by the Washington Times reveals.

According to the membership directory of the Owl Club, Kennedy updated his personal information as recently as September 7. Ironically, the Owl Club, long reviled at Harvard as "sexist,” was evicted from the campus in 1984 for violating federal anti-discrimination laws authored by Kennedy.

At Alito’s confirmation hearings, Kennedy brought up the nominee’s alleged membership in Concerned Alumni of Princeton (CAP), and said the nominee’s "affiliation with an organization that fought the admission of women into Princeton calls into question his appreciation for the needs for full equality in this country.”

When asked about the senator’s membership in the Owl Club, Kennedy spokeswoman Laura Capps told the Times there was "absolutely no comparison between the Owl Club and an effort to exclude women from Princeton.

"It’s a social club. It’s like a fraternity.”

But according to the Times, Harvard views organizations such as the Owl Club quite differently from fraternities and sororities, which are considered a form of housing and therefore are not coeducational.

Kennedy’s hypocritical attack on Alito over his membership in CAP would come as no surprise to readers of the blockbuster new book "Do As I Say (Not As I Do): Profiles in Liberal Hypocrisy.”

Author Peter Schweizer discloses that while Kennedy has fought for the estate tax and spoken out against tax shelters, he has repeatedly benefited from an intricate web of trusts and private foundations that have shielded most of his family’s fortune from the IRS.

One Kennedy family trust wasn’t even set up in the U.S., but in Fiji.

Schweizer also reveals that while Kennedy has championed the development of alternate energy sources, he opposed a plan to build a wind-power generating facility to provide clean, cheap power to Cape Cod.

The reason: The wind turbines would be positioned off the coast from the Kennedy compound in Hyannis, in one of the family’s favorite yachting and sailing areas.

You reckon the mainstream news media will publish any of this??? ............ NOT!!!!!

You won't see that in the MSM. They are so liberal anymore that they don't even try to hide it.

With JFK and Bobby gone, poor huge Teddy is struggling for survival, not to mention air. IF he wasn't so pathetic, it'd be funny.

He is truly an evil person.

Didn't he also belong to the "Co-ed Drinking and Swimming Team" at Harvard?

Too bad Mary Jo missed most of the meetings...

Well, in all fairness, it may be unfair to blame Teddy for his "weakness for the sauce." After all, it was the money from his old man's illegal sale of it during Prohibition that put him through Harvard and got him elected to the Senate.

And was Papa Joe "on the sauce" when as ambassador to the UK, he said "England will never win, so we better make friends with Hitler, he ain't THAT bad" (?)

Begrudgingly, I WILL give some credit to the womanizer JFK, he DID save the "Green Beanies," and liked "Reaganomics..." even if he DID win "dirty" and had a thing for the cameras, and wasn't THAT big a "hero" over PT109 (Yeah AFTER he lost it, but the jury is still out whether he should have been court-martialled for LOSING it in the first place!)but the ONLY "Kennedy Brother" worth a crap was the one that died trying to take out the sub pens at St. Nazairre with the R/C B-17C....

But I wonder, HOW can Teddy LIVE with himself attacking the military and George Bush's Foreign Policy AFTER having brothers that WERE heroes in WWII and a brother President's foreign policy that makes George Bush look like a DOVE????

And another brother AG that had J. Edgar tapping Martin Luther King's phones WITHOUT A WARRANT????

Maybe not on the sauce, Polish, but certainly a damn fool and not much of an American. Why he was ever appointed to the Court of St. James has always seemed one of Roosevelt's many political boondoggles to me.
