Page Excerpts From “My Senator and Me; A Dogs-Eye View of Washington D. C.”

January 9th, 2006 at 10:15 pm by Cranky

Not since Madonna’s “Mama is Not a Dirty Whore, You Ungrateful Poopy Head” has children’s literature been so enriched. Edward “Ted” Kennedy has taken up the pen and produced a fine piece of civic education.

Let’s see some pages…

Now I understand why interns play such a valuable role in our government today.

Oh that Splash! Silly dog.

UPDATE: Bruised Orange says it all:

Ted Kennedy has a dog named “Splash”, and as I’m sitting here trying to get this down on paper, my brain just keeps seizing up.

   You really should be paid more for your position as Senior Staff Artist. Or at least paid something.

   So Ted Kennedy Has This Dog, & His Name is Splash

   Doesn’t that just sound like the worst set up ever for a joke? Ted Kennedy has a dog named “Splash”, and as I’m sitting here trying to get this down on paper, my brain just keeps seizing up.

   I heard that John-John liked to take Splash flying with him too.

   You’d think that someone–anyone!–around that jackass would have steered him away from giving the dog that name.

   But nooooo…. They all probablt thought it was a hoot!

   You gotta be very, very careful with this stuff, Cranky. Ted knows where all the bodies are buried because he bought the shovels and drew the maps.

   Where you are is just a quick run down the coast, and Ted’s guys are probably going that way anyway to buy ammunition, cases of Bourbon and cement. Good luck.

   Honestly, we were chuckling about this all day, and I was 76% sure that you’d made up the dog’s name. Great post, and it was fun. I agree with TC – you’d think that somebody, a friend, family, an editor, the publisher, anybody would have waved him off of that particular name for the dog…
