News reports the other day were that Ted Kennedy did not attend sister Eunice Shriver’s funeral due to his being too ill from his own brain cancer. It won’t be long now........

I’m sad for his illness and health problems, but, it’s refreshing to see this reporting.

I had heard that his job in the Army was guarding NATO headquarters. And he enjoyed dating French girls in his off hours. Must be nice to be stationed in Paris rather than in a war zone.

Yep he’s the liberal lion. I agree he’s the liberal lion, but I don’t consider that a term of endearment, as the MSM would like it to be.

To this day, there has not been a full investigation of Chappaquiddick (sp?). The people who were at that party at that house to this day have not spoken publicly about anything.

Sometimes the MSM talks about the tragedies of the Kennedy family. I hate when they include events such as Chappaquiddick and the William Kennedy Smith rape case in those family tragedies. I think that the assassinations of JFK and RFK were true tragedies. But self-inflicted wounds like Chappaquiddick, William Kennedy Smith, the other Kennedy cousin who allegedly was involved with the under-aged babysitter, the other Kennedy cousin who was busted for drugs, etc. should not be excused or overlooked as part of a tragic family history.
