Photoshop of the day: Queen Caroline

By Michelle Malkin • December 23, 2008 09:53 AM

Our wonderful friend and photoshopper Tennyson Hayes is back. Nothing more needs to be said about Caroline Kennedy’s Senate bid than Tennyson’s photo-commentary:

***

Nobility cannot be bothered with the rules and customs of the little people:

If she were applying to be, say, an undersecretary of education in Barack Obama’s new administration, Caroline Kennedy would have to fill out a 63-item confidential questionnaire disclosing potentially embarrassing text messages and diary entries, the immigration status of her household staff, even copies of every résumé she used in the last 10 years.

If she were running for election to the Senate, Kennedy would have to file a 10-part, publicly available report disclosing her financial assets, credit card debts, mortgages, book deals and the sources of any payments greater than $5,000 in the last three years.

But Kennedy, who has asked Governor David Paterson to appoint her to succeed Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton — and who helped oversee the vetting process for Obama’s possible running mates — is declining to provide a variety of basic data, including companies she has a stake in and whether she has ever been charged with a crime.

Kennedy declined on Monday to reply to those and other questions posed by The New York Times about any potential ethical, legal and financial entanglements. Through a spokesman, she said she would not disclose that kind of information unless and until she becomes a senator.

VDH: Desperately seeking Caroline.

Every time someone on the left gets … criticized…

CK’s Uncle left a woman to drown and went to bed without calling for help except from his lawyers. Palin never did.

Game over.

Every time someone on the left gets mocked or criticized…

Bill Clinton got caught boffing a plump intern, and lost his law license after being impeached. Sarah Palin doesn’t have those issues.

Game over.

Palin’s a trump card.

Looks like you brought a deck of cards to a battle of wits. You’re outgunned.

It’ll be a joke if the thin-resumed Caroline Kennedy gets a Senate seat based solely on her lineage. However, it won’t be as big a joke as a D-list celebrity cheating his way into the Senate.

Don’t worry. If Franken does win, his awful potty humor and short temper will soon make him an embarassment to the Democratic party. Be careful what you wish for, Dems.

Wait, it’s ok for Caroline Kennedy with little if any political experience to be a senator because…of what, family connections and, no doubt because she is a Democrat, but Sarah Palin is excoriated for not being experienced enough for National office, even though she was mayor, on a state commission, and the Governor of a state, and for being too Republican. Dems are such hyocrites.

I would care about the Caroline Kennedy saga if I thought that there was a chance that a responsible person might become New York’s next junior senator.

Caroline presented her bonifides to us when she emerged from her cocoon and told us to vote for the black man from Chicago who had never done anything in his entire life that would make him a worthy presidential candidate.

Now we are supposed to reward her with a seat in the US Senate for being a Kennedy.

I’ll withhold judgement until I hear what senator franken has to say about all of this.

Excuse me but I have to go puke.
