Kennedy's overtly racist language stunned even liberal CNN correspondent Jonathan Karl, who reported, "Strong words from Ted Kennedy suggesting that some of these nominees are Neanderthals."

Oh please, just imagine if a Republican had said that.

In a related story, Ted Kennedy also referred to President Bush's judicial nominees as "a bunch of bloated, drunken slobs who are a disgrace to this nation!"

". . . and they swim like rocks, too!" he added.

"Racist Republican hate speech" would scream every headline and endless press releases from the DNC. Teddy Kennedy would call for the resignation of the author of such a racist comment.

Well, remember Trent Lott's remarks about Strom Thurmond? An innocent comment on an old man's birthday praising his presidential candidacy turned into a firestom of racism that cost Lott his job.

Here, we have Ted Kennedy straight out calling a black a Neanderthal, and the media gives him a free pass because he's a Democrat.
