Entry: Teddy Kennedy's Still Swimming in the Stuff Link: http://www.takimag.com/blogs/article/teddy_kennedys_still_swimming_in_the_stuff#10438 Post contents: "The bottom line is that Kennedy has served the country well in the Senate for 45 years, " That's the funniest line I've read in weeks. The sodden senator has served himself and his masters for those years and is being rewarded with $8m, which he probably needs like a dog needs more fleas. Such contracts are routinely handed to politicians about to leave office. They usually result in either a huge advance on a book which is never written or a ghostwritten sham of a book which hits the remaindered bins in short order, but which serves to honor the contract. At least we can look forward to the old sot's imminent retirement. There can be no other reason for this book deal. Sent at: 2008 07 24
