It's recently been revealed that Kennedy turned off the road and was driving too fast because he had recently jilted Laura Bush and she was hot on his tail in another car trying to run him down and kill him. In the dark he swerved to miss George W who was also out for one of his famous New England late night DUI adventures. That's when Kennedy went off the bridge. Laura collided with W instead and that's how the two of them met.
The rest is history. Laura became a librarian to atone for her sins and W eventually quit drinking in public, got elected president, and went on to kill a few hundred thousand mostly innocent people in an illegal and futile war. A war that he lied about to the American people in order to start.
Oh yeah, and Kennedy voted against the slaughter of those innocents.
