Comments on: Cartoon of the week – 8/16 http://foodpluspolitics.com/2009/08/16/cartoon-of-the-week-816/ Recipes from scratch and a lot of chatter about food ( plus a little about politics ) Fri, 26 Feb 2010 00:15:43 -0500 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.6 hourly 1 By: ellaella http://foodpluspolitics.com/2009/08/16/cartoon-of-the-week-816/#comment-6046 ellaella Tue, 18 Aug 2009 10:35:15 +0000 http://foodpluspolitics.com/?p=4431#comment-6046 Sweet is exactly the response I had to it too, Muse; I was so happy to see a cartoonist remember Rosemary too. Interesing link for you via music! When I was a kid -- a Navy kid -- and first heard Shriver's name, I thought he was a sergeant in the Army. :D Sweet is exactly the response I had to it too, Muse; I was so happy to see a cartoonist remember Rosemary too.

Quite the euphemism. I'm not sure we'll ever know exactly what her initital "problem" was, but I think it's pretty clear she was a victim. I try not to speak ill of the dead (don't always succeed) but I suspect old Joe Kennedy had some 'splaining to do about a <em>lot </em>of things at the Pearly Gates. High strung, eh?

Very amazing family. The cartoon is just so sweet! Brought a tear to my eye.

Her father did NOT like her lifestyle and was told that this lobotomy would "tame her." Yup it sure did.
