Mr. Kennedy, an independent presidential candidate, confessed to dropping off the bear cub 10 years ago and making it appear that a bike had hit the animal.
So basically, "I was going to skin and eat this baby bear, but I was late to dinner at Peter Luger Steakhouse, so I hid the baby bear in Central Park and put a bike next to it to make it look like a bike accident killed it instead. You know, because I was in a hurry to get to the airport."
I love that he decided to tell this story to Roseanne Barr, of all people. I also love "everyone else with me was drinking but I definitely wasn't drinking."
He's clearly trying to head off this New Yorker piece, but doing it in the dumbest way possible. "How are you going to spin this one, New Yorker?! I'll show you... I'll confess everything! On video! To Roseanne!"
It only makes sense to me if he killed the bear and wants to spin it as finding a bear somebody else had already killed. But then, I don't have brain worms, so who knows.
