Yeah, she should have just clothed herself in rags and lived in an abandoned car....that would have helped alot of people. /sarcasm.

She stepped out of her wealthy comfort zone and opened paths for disabled individuals all over the world (my daughter, cousin, and personal friends), when no one else was doing it.....its more than I have done in my 46 years. I won’t criticize what I don’t know, and I won’t be so arrogant as to speculate on her moment of judgement.

Dittos to that.

"With enormous conviction and unrelenting effort, Eunice Kennedy Shriver has labored on behalf of America's least powerful people, the mentally retarded. Over the last two decades, she has been on the forefront of numerous initiatives on the behalf of the mentally retarded, from creating day camps, to establishing research centers, to the founding of the Special Olympics. Her decency and goodness have touched the lives of many, and Eunice Kennedy Shriver deserves America's praise, gratitude, and love."

You have your points, but the bit about arrogance reeked of its own use.
