“I think the ’surge’ is working,” Congressman Jackass John Murtha said in a video conference from his Johnstown office, describing the president’s decision to commit more than 20,000 additional combat troops this year.

Great. Another millionaire jackass politician being paid millions of dollars for his lying autobiography.
I'll bet Fatboy Teddy Kennedy mentions Mary Jo Kopechne just as many times as Bubba mentioned Eileen Wellstone and Juanita Broaddrick in "My Lies" and Hillary mentioned Monica (et al) in "Lying History".
What else might be left out / glossed over?
His expulsion from Harvard in 1951?
(for cheating)
Why the US Army denied him a commission?
(cheating, again)
Why he was nicknamed 'Cadillac Eddie' in law school?
(cited four times for reckless driving -three times in 1958 and once in 1959- running red lights and driving with his lights off at ninety miles per hour in a suburban area. Teddy was convicted of three violations and fined, but for some reason -can we guess why- his driver's license was never revoked. Not even later, when he killed Mary Jo.)
How Daddy Joe bought / procured a Senate seat for Baby Boy?
(when JFK became POTUS, his Massachusetts Senate seat became vacant. But Teddy was not eligible to fill Bro's vacant seat until February 22, 1962, when he would turn thirty. So Daddy Joe persuaded the Massachusetts governor to name a Kennedy family friend to fill out Jack's term, keeping the seat available for Teddyboy.)
"Look, I paid for it," Joe explained. "It belongs in the family."How about how he tried to sell this country out to the Russians?
A Bridge Over Troubled Water (sorry, taken);
No Right Turns Since Chappaquiddick (definite possibility);
Booze, Broads and Bridges (has a ring to it);
and my personal favorite - Fatboy: an Autobiographical Fantasy

Or is there one system for the average citizen and another for the high and mighty?" -- Edward Kennedy, 1973

Democrats regained power in Congress this year, promising to create the most honest, open Congress in history. "We will bring transparency and openness to the budget process and to the use of earmarks," Speaker-elect Nancy Pelosi said in December 2006, "and we will give the American people the leadership they deserve."The Clinton campaign has refused to respond to requests that Ms Clinton identify her earmarks.
