I sent an Email to Fox News when I heard that Kennedy was dead. I pointed out that I would not be watching much TV for a while because I knew that there would be nothing but stories about him. I was crude and insensitive enough to mention that I would not be mourning Kennedy.
I also closed by saying that he might finally have to answer for Mary Jo. O’Reilly and some of the other Fox talking heads have been condemning those of us who said unkind things about Kennedy.
I have always been disgusted by the tendency of people to immediately transform someone who dies into a fictitious character with positive attributes they never exhibited during their lives. I think Ted Kennedy was a leftist maggot. I spit on his memory and I don’t care who finds that insensitive.
“I have always been disgusted by the tendency of people to immediately transform someone who dies into a fictitious character with positive attributes they never exhibited during their lives.”
A big Amen on that Skip. I am in the same boat, having been “shushed” here on FR for saying virtually the same things, and also from some of my Email Lib, and RINO friends. I have come to the conclusion that if they have a problem with what I say, then the problem is theirs, not mine.
