According to the Biography channel program on Casey Anthony:
One of her bodyguards said that Casey was (less worried about Caylee and) more concerned about whether she made it as the top story, how many helicopters were out there, the trucks. And when wearing her white sunglasses, asked her bodyguard "if she looked like Jackie Onassis."
Aside from the fact that they both walked upright and neither had a tail, I can think of no similarities between Casey and JBKO.
By the age of 25, Jackie had gone to Vassar, the Sorbonne and GWU. She spoke fluent French, as well as Italian and Spanish. She'd been Debutante of the Year and had her own byline with the Washington Times-Herald. She was the bride of Senator John F. Kennedy and had suffered a miscarriage. That's the desperate cruelty in Casey's self-serving comparison: Jackie endured 5 difficult pregnancies in her 10 years of marriage to JFK, resulting in a miscarriage, a still-birth, Caroline, John and Patrick (who lived only hours). One of the most famous women of the last century, even her detractors agree she was a loving, dedicated mother.
Casey Anthony at 25 is a high-school dropout and twice-convicted felon who has just been released from prison owing the IRS more than $70,000. What's left to be said about her parenting skills?
These are the thoughts and observations of me — a woman of a certain age. (Oh, my, God, I'm 65!) I'm single. I'm successful enough (independent, self supporting). I live just outside Chicago, the best city in the world. I'm an aunt and a friend. I feel that voices like mine are rather underrepresented online or in print. So here I am. If my musings resonate with you, please visit my blog again sometime.
Likening herself to Jackie O? Delusions. Delusions.
