Senator Ted Kennedy, driver of the Mercedes, describes what he heard next. I swam to safety. There was no way I could have saved her. Socks was rushed to the Georgetown Vet. Hospital where he remains unconscious, lying still in a mobile gurney with tubes embedded in his little kitty paws.
Public outcry is overwhelming.
For most of their term, the Clinton's managed to shield Socks from the press the same way they shielded daughter Chelsea. Throughout the first term, the press had a hands-off attitude towards both the daughter and the family pet. But that attitude began to change two months ago on rumors that Socks sired several litters of kittens without the benefit of marrige. Last week, those rumors exploded when a female cat Socks met during the Arkansas governor's race came forward, after several years, to charge him with sexual harassment. The yet to be identified pussy cat claims that Socks invited her to his hotel room.
