He was a historical figure and a great man.
I have no doubt that the ideas he pushed, agree with them or not, were things that he himself truly believed in.

Couldn’t disagree more about the ‘great’ designation. He was born into a very famous, wealthy, politically steeped family. That is not what makes one ‘great.’ Certainly not in God’s eyes. The Scripture is clear on this matter.
He pushed this national health care business right up to the end ... but he sure wasn’t willing to have it for himself or his family. When he got the brain tumor diagnosis, he got the absolute best doctors and care money could buy. What he believed in was mediocre healthcare for you and me, and the best for himself and his family/peers.
When one Senator steps forward who is promoting this healthcare travesty and says that he will vote for it when it includes all of the Congress, then that Senator will have credibility. No way would that ever have been Ted Kennedy. The only ones I can even imagine ever doing anything like that would have been Paul Wellstone or Paul Simon, both now gone.
Did you forget the sarcasm tag?
Anyway, RIH Ted.
