not of this clan was worth sweat on a pigs anus. but mr. ted he the worse. feel no sorrow for any of this so called Camelot crew. More like Halloween sequeled too too many times, please let the rest stop reproducing anymore like him or them. English citizens were killed because of fadder Joe Kennedy the rum runner. What idiots these Democrats and liberal are, they are ruining the country fast.

I’m glad to see some sober assessments here (pun intended!) of Ted Kennedy and his failings as a human being. Then, when you stack up some of the disastrous legislation (anti-American & anti-national security) he either authored or fought for, that adds more fuel to the fire. As well, his disgraceful treatment of Robert Bork is in a demented class all its own (joined by the hapless, clueless Joe Biden as well). Finally, I had not realized his disgraceful role in trying to undermine Ronald Reagan and his pro-American policies so perversely and with the intent of a traitor at worst, power-mad asshat at best. SO, some anti-jihadists claim that the only good terrorist is a dead terrorist, to paraphrase for Kennedy, the only good Kennedy is a silent and totally inactive one. Yes, his failed bid for the Presidency was, for him AND the Kennedy power trip, some measure of justice for his inhumane and unacceptable behavior re the negligent homicide of Mary Jo Kopechne.

It is said you shouldn’t say anything bad about the dead. He is dead, GOOD!

The Kennedys. from the father to the children, were corrupt to the core; womanizers, drunks, Mafia associates, self-promoting politicians who acted like royalty .. all scum, and that’s only the sons of the Nazi-loving ambassador to Britain who hated the English!

I am not going to cry for him. He screwed military personnel out of the ability to turn in accured leave in the late 70s. Up till that time military personnel could turn in 60 days of leave that they had accured every time they renlisted. Good old Teddy caut that back to 60 days for a entire 20 years of service. Let’s don’t even mention the lawyer scam that the ADA bill has become or the damage that Title IX has done to mens sports in college. Any of the bill that this idiot touched didn’t work. But he as one of the Kennedy Royals, of a bootlegger father, that was a NAZI lover under that Communist FDR.

I have nothing good to say about him but hope that in his very last moments that he took his religion seriously because according to how he lived his life it was obviously a moral disaster. What is he a lion of now? Probably nothing.

With the left now blaming his absence/death on the demise of Obama’s health plan, how can he RIP?

It is difficult for me to respect a person who uses religion merely as a tool for power.

He and Mario Cuomo led the public charge against the religion they called their own by denying it’s moral and ethical tenets, thus encouraging other Catholics to abandon them as well.

But abandonment wasn’t enough. They had to be destroyed. In fact, all moral and ethical norms and standards had to be destroyed in order to bring about the New World Order where man is his own god and God be damned.

Kennedy would not know that many people who never abandoned the true Catholic faith will be praying for his soul. But they must also wonder if God’s mercy can be or should be equated with his perfect justice.

Ted was a freaking womanizing drunk who should be in prison right now for the untimely death of Mary Jo Kopekne in 1969. Lets not try to polish up his image. Call a scotch soaked liberal what he was , HD.

One of the lowest moments in American politics of the last 25 years. Probably won’t be shown in Chris Matthews’s slobberfest tonight.
