Ted Kennedy Dead

Well, let's review the record.

I made an assholish statement. That's ok, I'm an asshole.

Now lets review the Kennedy record.

Run off bridge and kill your date, report it the next day, never suffer any consequences...check

Obstinate ass in senate...check

Infinite re-electability solely on family name by an ill informed and idiotic constituiency...check

Enemy of 2nd amendment rights...check

Proponent of killing unborn children...check

Stood in the way of military funding...check

Supported a socialist agenda...check

Favored taxing the bejeesus out of the "rich"...check

Had laws changed so that his republican governor could not appoint a republican senator if his junior senator were to be elected president...check

Attempted to change the laws back to what they were so that his new democratic governor could appoint a democratic replacement in the event of his death, in time to cram this socialism down our throats...check

Yeah, I'm not even a Republican and I'm glad he's gone.
 
Last time I checked, we are all human.
Humans make mistakes - let it go if it didn't affect you. Forgive it if it did.

As far as his political career. By most standards, it was an exemplory one. Some of you may not have agreed with his politics, but appearantly the folks he worked for did as they kept re-electing him.

So ends the dynasty of Joe Kennedy. RIP - all of them.

He was such a gentleman when they got to that bridge it took him 9 hours to open the car door for her.

Don't bother to shed a tear for the fat bastard.
+1 for National Lampoon.

Why do you have a problem with this? I'm ok with 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and for that matter 240th trimester abortions. Of course, if the idiots would do some planning and wear a damn rubber and take other precautions when needed, it wouldn't even be an issue.

ok... yeah... he can go to hell now. flat taxes and freedom > *
 
I don't believe in hell, I'm just glad he's not there to influence things on the hill anymore.

I have a problem with abortion because it denys fathers rights.
 
I for one, was extremely happy to hear this news. asshole or not, I don't care. I'm not upset in the least to hear about this. :patriot:
 
yeah... I don't really care if I'm an asshole for it either. Maybe we can get that wind farm off Martha's Vineyard now? :yelclap:
 
The think that bothered me most about Ted Kennedy (apart from Chappaquidick) was his self-stated war against the Individual.

"At a time when our entire country is banding together and facing down individualism, the Patriots set a wonderful example, showing us all what is possible when we work together, believe in each other, and sacrifice for the greater good."

Left-vs-Right always comes down to collectivism vs individualism. Kennedy carried water for those who would suppress the individual in favor of and service to the state. This is his company to keep

* We must abolish the cult of the individual decisively, once and for all. – Nikita Khrushchev
* All our lives we fought against exalting the individual, against the elevation of the single person. – Vladimir Lenin
* There is the great, silent, continuous struggle: the struggle between the State and the Individual. – Benito Mussolini
* The main plank in the National Socialist program is to abolish the liberalistic concept of the individual. – Adolf Hitler (Remember, present-day conservatives would be called liberals in the 1940s.)

Do you like being you, or do you want to be a grey-clothed cog in the wheel of the state. Ted Kennedy wanted the latter, may he rot in perpetuity
 
obama care... :explosion

VERY well stated, I never knew him as a man, but his politics were FRIGHTENING, and for that alone, I am glad he no longer has direct influence. Although, who they place in his vacuum is nearly as scary. I wonder how much that senate seat is going for? Blagojevich, you got any suggestions?
