I caught this over at Hot Air. It's a pretty big Say What? moment:
I don’t know if you know this or not, but one of his favorite topics of humor was indeed Chappaquiddick itself. And he would ask people, “have you heard any new jokes about Chappaquiddick?” That is just the most amazing thing. It’s not that he didn’t feel remorse about the death of Mary Jo Kopechne, but that he still always saw the other side of everything and the ridiculous side of things, too.
That's one of Ted Kennedy's old friends, an ex-editor of Newsweek and the NYT. Only in the surreal world of the political sycophant could you say that your hero sees the lighter side of things because he jokes about a woman that was left in his car to drown and die. "She died, huh? How ridiculous."
