Senator Ted Kennedy looks ridiculous today

Now, that is not news. Could have been written any day in the last 40 years.

[RasterMaster]

Teddy probably has Mao's Little Red Book in his personal LIEbrary, autographed by Mao himself. Of course the Skipper would be upset!

[smoothsailing]

Where did you hear that rumor

From Kennedy,of course! After all,he is a "legend in his own mind."

[Eric in the Ozarks]

Neck Brace ! Any story with Ted Kennedy deserves the MANDATORY "Ted in Neck Brace" photo, lest we forget...

[Donald Rumsfeld Fan]

..I may be a fake...but I'm an accurate fake....and the voters of Massachusetts adore me.

[Bean Counter]

Tim Russert needs to get Teddy the Hutt back on MTP, asnd let him pontificate about this, live. Better TV than the Super Bowl...

[smoothsailing]

Better TV than Super Bowl...

Not if my Pittsburgh Steelers get there! :^)

Whatever it is, it's losing.

I have always thought that someone somewhere should erect a memorial statue to Mary Jo for sacrificing her life to save America from a second President Kennedy.

[smoothsailing]

YIKES!

[Eric in the Ozarks]

I think you're on to something.

No matter who he is, we should not question him on past sins. It is not the Christian thing to do, for all we know he has gone to penance.

A public sin requires public repentance. The only change in behavior for Ted Kennedy post Chappaquiddick.

A couple of nice quotes:

" Do we operate under a system of equal justice under law? Or is there one system for the average citizen and another for the high and mighty? "
~ Senator Ted Kennedy, 1973

The mysteries of the case continue to haunt Ted Kennedy as well as the authorities who investigated them. Charges of ineptitude and lack of diligence abounded, as did insinuations that the machinery of justice crumbled beneath the power and prestige of the Kennedy family. George Killen, former State Police Detective-Lieutenant, and chief of a never-revealed investigation, lamented that the failure to bring the case to a satisfactory conclusion was "the biggest mistake" of a long and distinguished police career. Senator Kennedy, he said, "killed that girl the same as if he put a gun to her head and pulled the trigger."
~ Senatorial Privilege by Leo Damore

>>Senator Ted Kennedy looks ridiculous today

So it's a normal day.

Meanwhile, Boston's mayor, mumblin' Tom Menino, recently
introduced the Swimmer on stage as "Senator Cun-ne-dy"...

Ted's "Dewey Defeats Truman" moment:

Beatles expected to use Ted in a remix of a famed song from
Magical Mystery Tour. You say goodbye, and I say...

http://fatboy.cc/Audio/Hello.wav

Howie Carr, Boston-based talk host, does a regular "Wizard
of uhs" contest where listeners have to guess how many times Ted says "uh" in a sound clip. The segment is introduced
by "We're Off To See The Wizard"; right after "Because of
the wonderful things he does", the sound of a car
splashing into the water is heard.

[Bullish]

....if Kennedy were a man, Mary Joe Kopechne would be alive.

And if the voters of Mass weren't such kool-aide addicts, Kennedy would have been retired from politics back in the 70s.

[shezza]

feelings matter more than facts

Isn't that an official plank in their party platform?

A public sin requires public repentance. The only change in behavior for Ted Kennedy post Chappaquiddick.

"And when you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the street corners to be seen by men. I tell you the truth, they have received their reward in full. 6But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you. Matthew 5:5-6


That alone shows me there is no need for public repentence.

[HHKrepublican_2]

I thought those quotes were nice enough as well...

[stylin19a]

Ted Kennedy...who enlisted in the army for 4 years to go to
Korea during the Korean war, only to have his daddy get his enlistment cut to two years and get him sent to serve in Europe...THAT Ted kennedy ?

[smoothsailing]

Kennedy was in the Navy,IIRC.I'm not familiar with the Army story.
