Kennedy did much of the dirty work in Washington, but he had considerable help. In 2004, Sen. John Warner, the Virginia Republican, added a last-minute rider to an urgent Iraq War funding bill that forbade the Army Corps of Engineers to spend money permitting offshore wind projects.

"Warner was dragging American troops into the Cape Wind war," Williams and Whitcomb noted. The outcry forced him to back down.

Why did Warner care so deeply about a wind-energy project in Massachusetts? Some of his fabulously wealthy relatives own choice waterfront property on Cape Cod. That's why. http://www.realclearpolitics.com/articles/2007/09/why_liberals_are_turning_on_te.html

Yeah sure, liberals are turning on Ted Kennedy right up until the time a Republican runs against him. Then he’ll be St John the Kennedy’s younger brother again.

Why Liberals Are Turning on Ted Kennedy

I've ALWAYS been turned on by liberals!

[Red Badger]

Didn’t J-Fink oppose this, too? I don’t see the Libs out to get him........

[pnh102]

I'll believe this when I see Ted Kennedy lose either a primary or general election.

Until then, they love him.

[The Forgotten Man]

Only 38 years too late....

[From One - Many]

What...???

Ted is refusing to give classes on CPR, again?

The Miss America contestants volunteered as units on which to be performed? Ted wants all the Miss America contestants for himself?

Says he will share with Bill only?

I should have known......

What we have here is another Bill to the taxpayers, and Ted claiming everyone should ride in his car, over the bridge and look at the water.

The source of unhappiness is Kennedy's efforts to kill an offshore wind farm on Nantucket Sound.

Not the fact that he killed a campaign worker during a boozy weekend? Not the fact that he's a drunken elitist who is corrupt to the core? Not the fact that he has preyed on the naive awe of Massachusettans for half a century? THIS is what it took for the Left to finally see this blowsy mediocrat for what he is?

I guess I'll take their enlightenment where I find it ...

[gunservative]

I know why Ted Kennedy opposes offshore wind farms. When Kennedy dies, he’s left his liver to the local power company. They’ll be able to burn it for 50 years in order to create cheap electrical power to all of Hyannis.

Why can’t Democrats grow spines and be for the working man again? Not try to develop the United Socialist States of Democratic America?

[in hoc signo vinces]

Too many unpaid bar tabs finally getting to the Senator...

[Richard Axtell]

Notice how Kennedy’s nose looks like someone tried to light it, thinking it was his cigar?

[subterfuge]

and the leftish "Daily Show" on Comedy Central makes fun of him.

Like anyone pays any attention to that stupid "show".

[jackieaxe]

Larry Craig just resigned from the Senate over a dust up in a mens room. Ted Kennedy drove a girl into a lagoon and left her to die. He was also driving on an expired license and though there was no medical testing, I speculate he was drunk during the whole affair. Why is Ted still in the Senate?

[RC2]

Yup....another good example why we need term limits. 40 years in Congress is too much. This guy needs to go, along with Byrd and others that control our country to their own benefit....not ours.

[JimSEA]

liberals are now heaping scorn on the 73-year-old senator

The "Cultural Revolution" comes to Massachusetts??

Why Liberals Are Turning on Ted Kennedy

They can't afford to pick up his bar tab anymore?

[Harry Pothead]

Does anyone have some Advil?

[shield]

Pathetic....kennedy kills a women he was having a extramarital affair with...yet he stays in the senate 40 yrs. Isn’t this man considered a killer...yet, the wind farm is what’s goin’ do him in...HA...

[Disturbin]

According to loony lefty logic, his waterfront compound will be under water in a few years when all of the glaciers melt. If he can hold on just a little longer, he will have to move anyway, at which point he can be in favor of the wind farm.
