Howie Carr nails this article.

I really hate to be un-Christian, but I hope this miserable liberal sow s.o.b. dies a slow, horrible death. It's truly unfortunate that this rat bastard has been able to influence society and the culture as much as he is (Bork, expansion of welfare state, higher taxes, establishment of education as national issue instead of local, etc.) Fat piece of s--- kills someone, active or passive, and he's still revered as he is. Shows that liberals have absolutely no shame.

May he rot in hell.

You are being far too kind!

[Consort]

How old is that in human years?

"George Washington couldn't tell a lie. Ted Kennedy couldn't tell the truth."

Priceless!

Yes, Ted is somewhat troubled. But for Howie to go on and on about the Kennedy family without a mention of his own private school upbringing is just not fair. My point being, if you lost two, I mean three, brothers to violent death, would you not take solace in the booze on occasion. Give him a blasted break.

"George Washington couldn't tell a lie. Ted Kennedy couldn't tell the truth."

It's a take off on an old joke. It originally went "George Washington couldn't tell a lie, Richard Nixon couldn't tell the truth, and Jimmy Carter can't tell the difference."

[Ipberg]

Many men and women around Ted Kennedy's age lost older brothers in World War II but didn't become alcoholics or commit negligent homicides. He has no excuse for his recklessness behaviour and could have accomplished much more with the privileges he was given, not earned.

If only Ted Kennedy had driven a Volkswagen, he'd be president today. (National Lampoon)

[buzzcat]

I understand your points, but Ted was at a "public event" here in Boston in the 1990's, (location might be incorrect) and someone exploded a ballon. The sharp "bang" made him alert/duck/jerk and upset him the remainder of the evening.

Just leave the guy alone. He just turned 70, and so shall not torment you for many years longer.

What's this about?

I don't think so, this man, with his name, has had more breaks than any one man should have, and he hasn't given us one, he's still alive..... What to you consider a heavy drinker? This man hasn't seen a sober day in 20 years. and he is surrounded by Liberal Bed Wetting Left wing, vote and protect any Demoncrat at all costs, DEMOCRATS...This state would re-elect him is he was shown, on film, comitting a crime. The state MOTTO of Massatushits, is ELECT A DEMOCRAT AT ANY COST

[.45MAN]

Your either a relative or from Massatushits.

[geege]

Yes he's overstayed his visit here on earth....don't you think????

[Beowulf]

I've heard Rush mention this several times on his radio program. Apparently, during a night out on the town Ted and Chris managed to trap a waitress at Washington's La Brasserie restaurant between themselves and simulated (presumably) a sexual encounter.

I hope that was sarcasm. If not, turn in your screen name and go back to wherever you came from (hackerama, DNC, the Big House, Hope, Chappaqua, or wherever) when you logged in a big two days ago. We got along without ya before we met ya and......SITEPEST ALERT!

[BlackElk]

Why did they need the waitress?
