CAROLINE KENNEDY ... INARTICULATE

Yeah, that's what I heard some commentator call her over the weekend ... inarticulate. They played some clips on Fox News of an interview with Princess Caroline and it was just a series of "you knows" and "likes." The commentator (sorry, don't remember her name - I'm on vacation) said that she listened to a 35 minute interview with Caroline and counted no less than 196 "you knows" during the interview. Now this inarticulate woman feels somehow entitled to be a U.S. Senator from New York. This one is going to be fun to talk about when I get back behind a hot mic.

Oh, here's a video someone slapped up on YouTube that, you know, illustrates the point.

What others are saying

  • Contest
    Caroline Kennedy and Jennifer Grey should face off in a beauty contest!
  • we are all guilty from time to time,
    of butchering the English language, but it is funny that she is suppposedly so intelligent, educated in the best schools, and an attorney, and this is her speach pattern? I think someone owes Sarah Palin an apology! As for her looking like Greta VS, perish the thought! She's John Kerry in a wig! John John may have gotten the looks in the family, but I remember an interview he gave not long before his death, and he was just marginally better than Caro at speaking. It is just proof that genes do not necessarily pass down the good parts, you know?
  • Caroline Kennedy
    "Irony" is really a sad person. The double standard is alive and well. There is a difference between pronouncing things differently (anyone listen to Barney Frank?) and simply being vacuous and sounding like it. Caroline's "resume" is soooo light it floats. But I guess since Shrilliary got in on no experience..I guess Caroline thinks the Kennedy name is going to get her in. Pathetic really. Has anyone check HER brain lately?
  • You Know, You Should Stay Home Little Princess
    The sad part of this video is she is such a bad speaker, I believe they missed a couple of "you know's" ... you know? I'll give her one over Uncle Teddy ... I heard her pronounce Barrack Obama's name correctly once. If New York Governor David Paterson actually selects her to be a Senator from the state, she will need more propping up than a scarecrow. I suggest the little princess just stay at home and spend her inheritance.
  • Par for the Course
    Even with a Clintonesque vocabulary all modern democrats are illiterate and inarticulate when it comes to interpreting and upholding what this country was founded on.
  • Caroline Kennedy fully qualified
    Caroline Kennedy is fully qualified. She is an ah, er, uh, like ya' know, um a DEMOCRAT. (A bit of sarcasm)
  • The Decider, Nuke-you-lar, etc.
    I'm sorry, but it's pretty hilarious seeing people slam Caroline Kennedy (and by extension, the democratic party in many posts) for frequent "you know's" when our current republican president can't even pronounce common words correctly.

    I mean hey, at least she's not like our republican congressmen who molest little boys.

    Oh wait. It's just more convenient to make fun of this than something legitimate.
  • CK and "you know"
    I had an English teacher who stopped an entire 7th grade of saying "you know" by simply stating No, I don't know, please explain... It was a quick fix, but it worked!
  • Literally
    Hey, Neil. You might want to mention to Sean that he does something similar with the word "literally". He has gotten somewhat better lately, but there was a time when he said that word so often, we could have made a drinking game out of it.
  • Isn't She Married?
    I thought if you got married you took your husband's name unless you were a celebrity. I guess she wants everyone to know she "is" a Kennedy and she "is" privileged. Princess Caroline does not need to be a senator ... all she would do is rubber-stamp all Democrat agendas.
  • YOU KNOW, LIKE, ARE WE TURNING INTO A MONARCHY?
    It seems to, like, you know, be a major problem here in the U.S., you know, for high ranking government office holders having their, you know, sons and daughters following in their parents footsteps to be like, you know, in line for the throne ... a Monarchy if you will. This, you know, further develops the arrogance and self-serving tendencies of the office. I think this country is better served, you know, like, when we have fresh meat in Washington on a regular basis. Not some privileged little rich girl that hasn't, you know, learned how to talk like a grown up yet.
  • Kennedy candidacy
    I know more about this woman than I do Obamy. And, although while still not qualified for a senate seat, her resume is far more substantial than Obamy's.
  • You Know
    While the use of "You know" has mostly replaced the "er uh", the bad the is the number of "um's" in this little snippet.

    Sadly, I think the hope of a Kennedy legacy is long time passed.
  • Caroline Kennedy
    You know, didn't we just put someone like that in the White House. Put her on a teleprompter. Then she'll be as smart as he is, and as informed.
  • Well...maybe.
    Anyone else see the resemblence between her and Greta Van Sustern?
  • Princess Caroline
    JFK Jr must have gotten all the good DNA...
  • Inarticulates
    Some that slay me are:

    Do you know what I'm sayin'? (Not exactly...)

    Do you see what I'm sayin'? (Of course I do not "see" what you are saying...)

    Do you hear what I'm sayin'? (I am not deaf.)

    It took me a while, but I finally got my kids to stop saying "goes" - he goes, she goes, they go, we go, I go... It got to the point where they could barely talk in front of me without stammering, but they stopped eventually. What good kids.

    If you took such phrases out of the English language, many people would not be able to conversate. You know what I'm sayin'?
  • sweet caroline
    That Fox News contributor was Liz Trottta
  • The Kennedys
    Will obsequious groveling by the press over everything Kennedy please stop? Had JFK lived he would have been remembered as the guy who got us into Viet Nam and Bobby would have been a disaster as president. In addition to holding down a senate seat with his gin-soaked butt for forty years, Ted's only real accomplishment has been demonstrating that an Oldsmobile won't float. Enough already. Someone needs to sit the entire Kennedy clan down and explain to them that they've become irrelevant to the point of being a bad joke.
  • More inarticulateness
    While on the subject, Neal, please proof-read (proofread? proof read?) the copy in your Nuze regularly. The typos and grammatical errors can be like, ubiquitous. I just don't want your site to be mocked by those who cannot counter your arguments
  • Y'knows
    I agree that "like" and "y'know" have replaced "uh" for all but BHO. Pass this on to Sean "Y'know" Hannity, will you?
  • Caroline Kennedy
    I bought a anti-Hillary Clinton bumper sticker that reads: "Life's a Bitch. So ... Don't vote for one!
    Think I'll paste Caroline Kennedy's face on this bumper sticker.
  • You know
    Neal, I wonder if you are even aware of all your "you know"s, or of your "(pause) okay? "s. For years I've found myself no longer listening to what is being said by people and counting the "you know" s
  • Caroline Kennedy
    The "you-knows" are just a newer version of the "er-uh's" of the old guard Kennedy vernacular! That Kennedy lineage has to continue on...
  • Ya know
    Sad part is that they actually missed a couple of those, you know.

    When I was in high school, I remember someone in an English class who gave a report where they said "you know" about 100 times. At the end of it the teacher said to the person, "We know". Very cruel, but it would have been priceless if the reporter had said, "Caroline, we know".
  • Caroline "YOU KNOW" Kennedy
    So what’s the big deal? She makes a perfect rep. for the democrat party!!!!!!!!!!!!! YOU KNOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
