I would say Eunice and Joe were probably the only Kennedys that lived and died with honor.

Rosemary MUST be included on that list. She was mildly mentally handicapped and her father had her lobotomized to avoid any chance of scandal. She was the reason that Eunice started the Special Olympics.

Rosemary has to be placed in a special Kennedy category. She had her personality and any potential savaged by her parents when she was a child. Adolph Hitler would have been proud. Her opportunity to do anything positive or, for that matter negative was cruelly taken from her.

She should be considered a criminal Kennedy casualty much like Mary Jo Kopechne or Marilyn Monroe.
