Saturday is the 39th anniversary of the death of Mary Jo Kopechne on Chappaquidick Island. A day that Mass. Senator Ted Kennedy would rather forget.

[Dick Bachert]

...and she's STILL pissed that he didn't even try.

[Kimmers]

I like to think that he and Mary Jo may be in two different places....

[SueRae]

I shouldn’t say what I’m thinking but wouldn’t it be ironic if...

[MissEdie]

True, but with as much vodka that has sloshed around his brain I seriously doubt he remembers anything about that night. Maybe that's why he's such a drunkard- trying to forget he's a murderer.

[popdonnelly]

The Kennedys are like the Bonapartes of France. They think they have a right of family entitlement. All other considerations are totally irrelevant.

[spotbust1]

Wow, I was only 5 month old. Time flies . . .

Teddy with his brain cancer will soon have to answer for Chappaquidick to the ultimate judge.

A day that Mass. Senator Ted Kennedy would rather forget.

Did he ever give it a thought?

Perhaps only to try to cover it up.

[SeafoodGumbo]

I'll never forgive this fat frump's vicious attacks on Reagan when he was President. It really showed fatty for what he really is - a bitter, hate-filled curmudgeon who wouldn't admit the opposition was right if his very life depended on it.

It should never be forgotten that Kennedy communicated with the Soviet KGB about ways to undermine the sitting President of the United States.

He is a textbook definition of a traitor.

[Ted Kennedy is garbage. I will feel not one ounce of sympathy no matter the amount of his earthly suffering from disease/accident.]

My father died from a similar condition. Not a pleasant way to go. I wouldn’t wish it on anyone but there are those that have it and it bothers me not. This qualifies.

[Biblebelter]

It is not so much about Teddy Kennedy. It is about ANYONE who would vote for him. I live a long way from Massachussetts. But I CANNOT imagine living in a place where people go to the polls and vote for that low a form of life.

[SF Republican]

Teddy with his brain cancer will soon have to answer for Chappaquidick to the ultimate judge - Thank you for at least having the decency and respect to leave it up to HIM, so many here appear to feel they have the authority to make that judgment.

[ImJustAnotherOkie]

I think it’s time to let this story go.

[Uncle Hal]

When ever I see or hear Teddy’s name, I think of Mary Jo.

[fso301]

All water under the bridge

[IncPen]

I think it’s time to let this story go.

I don't.

Kennedy was selected by Time as one of “America’s 10 Best Senators”; the magazine noted that he had “amassed a titanic record of legislation affecting the lives of virtually every man, woman and child in the country”

Like saying that John Dillinger,”Amassed a titanic record of actions affecting the banking industry all across the country”.

[Scarpetta]

You know how Thos. Jefferson died on July 4th?

Would it not be fitting if Fat Teddy succumbed on July 19, 2009...exactly 40 years to the day of Mary Jo's death?

[G.Mason]

It would indeed.
