Everything New is Old Again
Another Kennedy in trouble:
Sen. Edward Kennedy’s nephew, William Kennedy Smith, said on Monday he had quit his job to confront what he called false allegations by a former employee that he had sexually assaulted her five years ago.
“At this point I am focusing all my energies on dealing with the situation that confronts me. The damage has been done, but the truth will be sorted out,” Kennedy, a doctor who founded and heads a Chicago-based nonprofit organization that helps disabled people in war-torn countries, told reporters.Appearing to choke back tears of anger or frustration, Smith, 43, admitted he had a five-month relationship with Audra Soulias in 1999, who at the time was a 23-year-old employee of his Chicago-based organization.
I know how shocked you must be — “a Kennedy with a job?” And yet it’s true. And, yes, this is the same Kennedy from the famous 1991 rape trial.
I briefly caught her attorney on one of the talking head show and it seems that Smith & Soulias continued to have sex after the alleged assault (i.e., days and weeks later). Dunno what actually happened, but it looks awfully tough for her to win.
And the economy must be in horrible shape if a Kennedy has to work.
Well, at least he quit the job and restored balance to the universe.

RE: This ‘Kennedy’ Must Have Deep Pockets
Why am I reminded of the Bryant case, here?
As with Bryant, this woman will probably go for a civil suit. There’s more money in it.
These women are giving women a bad name.

“As with Bryant, this woman will probably go for a civil suit. There’s more money in it.”
I think she’s only going for a civil suit. I haven’t heard any discussion of potential criminal charges.
Thank God they weren’t married, or the Kennedy’s would have to pay for another annulment.
Is there a group rate?
Hmmm, hate to kick a guy while he’s down, but it sounds like our boy Will likes it a little rough. Good thing he’s a Dr so he can get his pals to patch up his girlfriends for him occasionally. I’d guess he’ll have a tougher time of getting girls back to his house for a few years until a new crop makes it to their early twenties…double blech. I’d rather go on a date with a tarantula
A job? He’s head of a non-profit he “founded.” Seems the scam is to get people to make tax-deductable donations, so Kennedys can collect a salary. I’m sure someone will tell us he was doing fine work.
What? Every time we fight Iraq this guy rapes someone? Well, at least that’s over with now.
Him? Again? Do we have to do that all over?
Anyone else in favor of forcing Kennedys to stay in their compounds?
the lawyer is like a pitbull, yells a lot, the girl is a complete phony, she hasn’t worked in years yet continued to ratchet up 90,000 in bills. What a loser, i hope she’s made a complete fool of, and yes, she does give us women a bad name, but she’s not alone, money grubbers are all around us, and doctors open their own can of worms by sleeping w/ them!
Kennedy Smith is certainly bringing out the big guns – Dan Webb (his lawyer) has major mojo in Chicago, being an ex-prosecutor and a very successful private attorney. But did anyone catch the note about Kennedy Smith being forced to shell out in prior harrassment cases?
Remember the story about “belling the cat”? How does one go about belling a Kennedy?

John Carpenter could do a sequel to his Escape From movies.
Seems to me like it would go down well as a cannibal approach. Get Kurt Russell and some others to do a spoof on the previous iterations a la Airplane.

P.S. What was that jest I heard from the DNC National Convention last month?
Oh…yeah….
The marriage of Arnold Schwartzineger to Maria Schriver (of the Kennedy clan) was an attempt at creating a bullet-proof Kennedy.
His timing couldn’t be better… Kerry must be loving the fact that a different Democrat is taking the heat now for a little while.
Good News?
Well no, not reaaly, but certainly in the well, it could be worse catagory. Imagine if The Man Who Would Be Kennedy had chosen this one as a role model instead of the one whose initials he shares….
