Standards for knighthood are slipping deplorably.

Hey, I may look ridiculous, but at least I never enabled a genocide...

That's nice. Funny, I always thought highly of the Queen. I'm a bit confused with this news. It does, however, offer a little insight to the rather colorful approach to life her son and heir-apparent has taken. Well, it's hers to give, and his to accept.

Congress.

All kidding aside, Mary Jo Kopechne is exactly why this honor should never be given to Ted Kennedy.

"Mary Jo Kopechne is exactly why this honor should never be given to Ted Kennedy."

She also brings into question how a Knighthood could be bestowed upon such a cowardly degenerate.

I think that is why they call it an ‘honorary’ knighthood. Technicality so that it isn’t a problem, they are all lawyers so they know how to dodge the constitution.

I don’t hate Ted Kennedy, but after Chappaquiddick he never should have achieved high public office (particularly ELECTIVE office), let alone receive honors like this.

"When he dies, send his body to the UK for burial."

They should either bury him next to that other lady killer, Henry the VIII, in St. George's Chapel, or draw and quarter him, then set his head on a pike on Tower Bridge.

Yea well, she knighted that boy-scout hating, homo loving douche bag Elton John. Who cares anymore, the British society is a shell of a once great nation. Like ours will soon be.

The Queen knighted Elton John. She’ll knight anybody.
