No, I was quoting the other poster who said HE was impressed, which was why I wanted to name it the “Doesn’t-Matterhorn”. The only thing Fat Teddy ever did that impressed me was leaving the Senate.

Do you really think his family reads FR?

I don’t give two rats asses about his family either. I am sick to death of these white trash Kennedys being held up as some kind of royalty.

Joe was a scumbag who raised scumbags. Scumbags beget scumbags.

(searching for my sense of charity...

Some people don't deserve any charity. On the other hand, may worms spoil his dirt nap was hardly necessary to get your point across, IMO.

Just my opinion, as I said, so don't come railing back at me in self-defense.

I'll never forget Ted's disgusting abandonment of Mary Jo and I have no regard for him.

I don’t know what number prick I will be responding to Kennedy’s death, but He definitely won’t be visiting Mary Jo. Plus, the Kennedy’s on Earth have a way to getting with murder, but where this SOB is going, there is no bargaining.
Finally, the people of the United States WILL NOT miss the way this guy played the rules.

Very well said.

We often hear people cry out for justice and a sense of fair play in our society. Too often it's just lip service among many.

I can't understand those who are so ready to overlook the Mary Jo Kopechne tragedy, so they can advance the cause of Teddy Kennedy. His behavior after the accident was despicable. Why he was allowed to continue on in the senate is beyond me; but more than that, why he allowed himself to continue on in that high office speaks of a deep character flaw. Most reasoned people with a sense of honor would never been in that position to begin with. And even if someone did get in that type of circumstance of having a traveling companion lying in the car underneath the water, I know that you would move Heaven and Earth to get that person out of the trapped car. Kennedy's accounts after that accident are deplorable. Inexcusable. God will judge that action.

We are in the midst of seeing a media gone wild with this death. It will be come too much to bear for many of us. We can only thank God that he has given us the wisdom to see the truth and know it.

I heard Obama is going to give the eulogy. Perhaps there is justice after all.

His brother John was a war hero and a believer in cutting taxes to grow the economy.

Ted was neither a hero, nor one who had a clear vision of what was good for the nation. In fact, in my view he actively worked to undermine the nation.

Therefore, his removal from the Senate is probably a good thing for the nation.

I imagine there were people who actually cared for him, and that this is not all spin. However, coming out the spin room that he created, who can really say?

"Is Camelot over?"

Of course not, LOL.

The torch has been passed to Barack, the last of the Kennedy brothers.

We're now entering the era of "Bamalot".
