Ted Kennedy Memoir To Be Released Posthumously

Filed under: R.I.P. > Politik

Judging by the pre-sales of Ted Kennedy's memoir, the book should be atop the New York Times Bestseller list in no time!

True Compass is already #7 on Amazon.com and and #3 on Barnes and Noble's website, even though the book won't be hitting stores until September 14th!

Kennedy's memoir is being kept under tight wraps until its release date, with both Time and Newsweek up in arms over not receiving an advanced copy of True Compass.

Newsweek's Editor-in-Chief Jon Meacham has even said he searched the entire US for a copy of the memoir, but turned up empty handed!

"We've released no information about our publicity plans," says a spokesman for the memoirs' publisher, Hachette Book Group.

True Compass, which was to be released in early 2010, saw its release bumped up to October when Kennedy was diagnosed with brain cancer in May 2008. The publishers made the bold (and smart) decision to move the date to mid-September after the senator's passing late last week.

Are U planning on picking up a copy?

      Now, if it only had ALL the truth in it-like, yeah, she was alive in the back of the car, but I knew I would be arrested for dui so I thought, as I raised my last Guiness, cause wouldn't you know the case broke going over that efin bridge, DUI or family cover up, and my guiness was gone, so you know the answer…. I divorced Joan Bennett Kennedy, mother of my 3 children, because she was an alcoholic. Many people have accused ME of being an alcoholic. BS. Look at the bottles in the garbage. stolies, finlandia, guiness, dewars, Middleton, baileys. The paps looked at the vodka and figured Joan Joan all Joan -but what was vodka original made of YES, the GREAT POTATO- what brought the Fitzgeralds and Kennedys to this great country to RULE. The finlandia was Joan's , but everything else, kennedys drank. Bet my liver, if they do an autopsy will weight about 20 lbs. Um, maybe I will write that in, 'EMK breaks another record-largest liver to date!!

      No, my family did not buy 20,000 votes in the 1960 election to ensure my brother john the election. NO, No , NO. We bought 20 MILLION votes. Thing is, they were payable after he was re-elected in 1964-so NO ONE GOT PAID TO ELECT MY BROTHER PRESIDENT. THIS IS A MATTER OF RECORD.



    15. 15

      Yes, eventually I will read it. I admire all the progressive, social laws he authored and co-authored.



    16. 16

      I must say after the events of the past few days there is no other way to release Ted Kennedy's memoirs but posthumously…I mean, the guy is DEAD.

      Is he going to talk about how that poor girl suffered for two hours in a submerged car while he tried to cover his ass? A horrible death.

      "The diver, John Farrar, later testified at the inquest that Kopechne's body was pressed up in the car in the spot where an air bubble would have formed. He interpreted this to mean that Kopechne had survived for a while after the initial accident, and concluded that "Had I received a call within five to ten minutes of the accident occurring, and was able to be at the victim's side within twenty-five minutes of receiving the call", there is a strong possibility that she would have been alive on removal from the submerged car. Farrar believed that Kopechne "lived for at least two hours down there."

      Nope! I never believed Teddy was innocent of driving drunk the night the girl died. He saved his own ass and possibly let the girl drown.
      I was never a Kennedy lover and I think he got away with murder. So screw him,his life and his book.

      Re: marlow – @ 18 - my heart breaks for the poor girl regardless of the accusations of why she was w/ him……



    22. 22

      HA! I wouldn't waste my money on anything with his name or in connection to him. I work way too hard for my money to waste it on a man who took advantage of his name & family history.

    26. 26

      You realize Ted Kennedy KILLED somebody. He didn't get in trouble because he's a Kennedy. He was a horrible person and is now rotting in hell. Why make a murderer out to be a great guy while ripping nice people to shreds. Fuck you Perez.

      TED kennedy joked about the mary jo disaster. He joked about it all the time and even called his portuguese water dog "Splash". He gifted a portuguese water dog to Obama. Obama called his BO.
      *
      Ted called his dog SPLASH. What a fucking sociopathic bully that Ted Kennedy was….as are all the Kennedys. Sociopathic elititst pigs.



    29. 29

      I wonder how many pages this murderer will devote to tell how he killed Mary Jo and then loved to laugh and joke about it for the rest of his disgusting life? Only libitards will be buying this fraudulent morons book.



    30. 30
