Ted Kennedy, in a move signifying either his coming senility or conversion to Kabbalaism, is releasing a children's book about a day in the life of his Portuguese Water Dog, Splash (Do not adjust your monitor, Ted Kennedy did indeed name his dog Splash - amazingly ironic). [Insert Mary Jo Kopechne joke here] My biggest problem is with the title. Is Splash a citizen of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts? Does she vote? If so, does this explain his generation-long tenure?
In the Senator's defense, as the proud owner of a Portuguese Water Dog, I can see how he would want to author a book after his dog's exploits. Bogart is the coolest dude I know, and he's only 20 months old. The Portuguese Water Dog - official canine of the AofG AND the Senior Senator from Massachusetts.
That said, if put through their paces, I'm sure Bogie would wipe the floor with Splash. Sorry Ted. Truth is Truth.

Maybe he can explain to the kiddies why there daddy is having them blow into one of these before they go home from the game....

I'm sure that He-who-takes-left-turns-
in-the-middle-of-bridges-with-no-guard-rails (that's his Native American name, BTW) didn't see the irony in naming his dog "Splash."
Nope ... none ... zero ... um ... yeah.

Actually, the senator didn't name the dog Splash. Splash's previous owners did. The senator got him as an adult.
He also has another PWD named Sunny.
