.

Robert was his brother.

to the ones who killed his brother?

And what, his cousin, uncle? Robert F. Kennedy, Bobby Kennedy I'm tryin' to think of I guess.
Traitor to The Republic!
Tried his damnest to turn the United States into Mexico.

Good riddance.

Even on his death bed he never called for a new investigation on the assassination of his two brothers and nephew. That silence tells me all I need to know about him. He was a chicken-shit, drunk.

they put one of those "perpetual monuments" on his grave, similar to the ones that they have in Roman architecture, with a statue of a kid pissing on his grave forever.

Breaking ... August 29, 2009. Senator Ted Kennedy of Massachusetts remains dead. Details to follow.

Notice what happened to his brothers.

he did, and then make sure history does not repeat itself.

excerpts:

As a youth, Ted Kennedy was an average student but was admitted to Harvard University as a "legacy" because his older brothers and his father had previously graduated from the school. In his sophomore year, Kennedy was expelled for paying a friend to take a Spanish exam for him. He joined the Army in 1951 and returned to Harvard two years later. He graduated in 1956 with a bachelor’s degree in history and government.

In 1957 Kennedy enrolled at the University of Virginia Law School. By the time he graduated in 1959, he had been cited four times for reckless driving, thereby earning himself the nickname "Cadillac Eddie." One violation was for night-driving at ninety miles-per-hour in a suburban area, with his headlights off.

Kennedy was a key player in the creation of Medicare in 1965, and he was a major driving force behind the passage of the Immigration Reform Act that same year. Born of liberal ideology, the 1965 bill abolished the national-origins quota system that theretofore had regulated the ethnic composition of immigration in fair proportion to each group's existing presence in the U.S. population. Kennedy saw these ethnic quotas as an archaic form of chauvinism, thus the 1965 legislation reoriented policy away from European ethnic groups.

In July 1969 Ted Kennedy became embroiled in what was perhaps the most infamous personal scandal of his life. On the evening of July 18 on the Massachusetts island of Chappaquiddick, the senator hosted a party for volunteers who had worked on his late brother Robert's 1968 presidential campaign. Shortly before midnight, Kennedy, whose wife was not at the event, left the party accompanied by a young woman named Mary Jo Kopechne.

With Miss Kopechne in the passenger's seat of Kennedy’s Oldsmobile, the senator accidentally drove off a wooden bridge and into tide-swept Poucha Pond (which was, at that location, a channel); the vehicle came to rest, upside down, under the water. Kennedy managed to escape, but the young woman remained trapped inside the car and died. The senator soon left the scene of the accident and, instead of reporting what had occurred, spent the next ten hours concocting an alibi while the car lay unnoticed beneath the water. Kennedy eventually pleaded guilty to leaving the scene of an accident.

In 1987 Kennedy led Senate Democrats in their bitter fight to prevent the confirmation of President Reagan’s Supreme Court nominee, Robert Bork, whose originalist judicial philosophy Kennedy rejected. Less than an hour after Bork’s nomination, Kennedy, whose staff had thoroghly researched the judge’s writings and record, went to the Senate floor to announce his opposition.

Largely as a result of Kennedy’s efforts, Bork’s nomination was defeated, both in committee and in the full Senate.

In July 1992 Kennedy married his second wife, a Washington attorney named Victoria Anne Reggie, who was 22 years his junior.

Throughout his political career, Kennedy advocated the wholesale redistribution of wealth via steeply progressive tax rates designed to fund an ever-expanding array of entitlement programs and social-welfare benefits as well as the public education system. Opposed to any provisions in the tax laws that might help mid- to high-earners minimize their tax liability, Kennedy once said, on the Senate floor, that he would be glad if “the word ‘shelter’ disappears from the tax vocabulary.”[1] On another occasion he said, “Instead of shutting down classrooms [due to a supposed lack of funding], let us shut off tax shelters.”[2] Whenever fellow legislators proposed tax cuts, Kennedy typically framed them as “giveways” and “bonanzas” intended to help only the wealthy.[3] And in the name of social justice, he supported the inheritance tax on assets that are transferred from one generation to the next; a repeal of that tax, he said, would unjustly “benefit millionaires.”[4]

But while the multi-millionaire Kennedy stood firmly in favor of raising taxes on high earners across the United States, he showed a pronounced reluctance to pay taxes on his own wealth. For many years, Merchandise Mart, the Chicago-based real estate conglomerate that Joseph Kennedy established in 1935, was the most valuable asset belonging to Ted Kennedy and his family. In 1974 Joseph Kennedy divided Merchandise Mart’s ownership among numerous family members, including Ted, in the form of a trust that was domiciled in the Pacific island of Fiji. Because the trust was based in Fiji, it was not subject to the taxes normally imposed on trusts domiciled in the United States.

Note to all my Facebook friends:

Please, no more quotes. No more encomiums. I'm sick of the assumption they all make, that we all agree, and we all march in lockstep together about dear old Ted.

So I posted the Dead Kennedys, singing "Too Drunk to F*ck," with no commentary whatsoever.

Let the games begin...

Experience hath shewn, that even under the best forms of government those entrusted with power have, in time, and by slow operations, perverted it into tyranny.
Thomas Jefferson

Just read on MSN the following:

"Senate Democratic Leader Harry Reid said that both the Kennedy family and the Senate have "lost our patriarch" and vowed Congress would renew the push for the cause of Kennedy's life, health care reform."

So If I was a conspiracy theory nut I would say........ What a coincidence that he died just when there are so many against health care reform and congress is having a hard time passing it...

But that is if I was into conspiracies...

Jackie is right. The Michael Jackson hullabaloo will be nothing compared to what we will be subjected on behalf of Ted Kennedy's praise. I will have to cut down on my watching the news. As soon as I hear "Ted Kennedy," I will change the channel.

Ted Kennedy's legacy: The American people will not forgive Ted Kennedy for pushing the 1965 Immigration Reform Act, which threw the gates open to 1 million a year of non-English speaking people from poor countries and caused 3 million illegal aliens to come yearly to this country.

Ted Kennedy enjoyed the blessings of capitalism, while he pushed socialism on the American people.

Ted Kennedy pushed for Amnesty for millions of lawbreakers in our country.

Ted Kennedy is responsible for most of the calamities afflicting this country. He wanted to see the last blow delivered with socialized medicine, but he was denied that pleasure by the Higher Power.

I will probably not watch much of the news for at least a week as I can't stomach to hear so much praise for a man who singlehandedly caused so much damage to the legacy that our Founding Fathers left us.

I cant wait for lindsey graham to join him.

Why are people saying that he has finally got his come-uppance for his involvement in the Mary Jo drowning incident? Ted lived a long life. Reaching the age of 77 is a pretty good lifespan. No paybacks/revenge/etc is being made here at all. It's more like Ted got the last laugh over the whole debacle for living to the age of 77 and being painted as a "great man" by the media.
