Does Ted Kennedy Have Alzheimers?
You might think I am joking but there really can not be many other reasons for what is coming out of his mouth. The man is just doing to much damage to his own party for this to be a well thought out attack on Bush. His rhetoric is so unbelievable that especially in context with the history of his family; he should know better.
When he calls Iraq a quagmire he is of course relating it to Vietnam which is ironic because his brother did have a quagmire on his hands in Vietnam. It was created more by the likes of liberal politics than lack of military capability. The liberals are trying to do to Iraq as they did to Vietnam, they want us to abandon other peoples chance at long term freedom, they just want us to run.
Did people like Ted Kennedy and Barbara Boxer free any body from tyranny? Have their treaties and tea parties every resolved the end of the horrible leaders this world has produced? No! Horrible men have killed millions and millions of people and Ted would never be on the front line to stop it, instead he belches high octane steam through is blow hole spouting ridiculous lie after lie. He must believe his lies have legs but they have not since he swam away from Mary Joe.
It is time for Ted to go, his normal thought process is spent!
The fact is, old Joe was so p*ssed with the boy's poor performance in school, he reported the kid's name to the local draft board in 1951. Edward M. Kennedy spent two years as an EM in Paris, where any other GI would have been derelict in duty for skipping so many roll calls. By rights he should have been on the front lines in Korea at the time, but some family influence came into play on that.
Two years in uniform did not do a THING for young Jedi Teddy.
Ain't gonna happen. He's too far gone...
It's obvious that the MSM will repeat the mantra that Iraq is a quagmire, until the people come to believe it. It will be like Vietnam all over again. I remember that era, and I believed what the media said in those days because I didn't know any better. Their strategy is evil but monstrously effective.
The quagmire is msm and the liberal left!!!!!!!
You're right. My father had Alzheimer's and the symptoms were entirely different, primarily characterized by profound loss of short term memory and personality changes where personality traits he'd successfully restrained became unrestrained. Teddy is showing no signs of short term memory loss or the peculiar little, inappropriate pauses while speaking that Alzheimer's victims often show. He's just the vile, mean, lying, evil, bitter POS that he's always been.
I wonder what his blood glucose is? I'll be he consumes carbs by the truckload....
Look up Korsakov's Syndrome. Used to be real common especially in the VA patients.
Sort of a "Weekend at Bernie's," but with a host who has not quite flatlined. The Kennedy staff/sycophants have always been the power behind the throne.
<< Does Ted Kennedy Have Alzheimers? >>
No.
Habitual-drunkard, Kennedy has advanced Korsokoff's Syndrome, a brain disorder that is usually associated with heavy drinking over a long period and whose symptoms are similar to those of Alzheimer's.
Not long now before he spends his remaining days on a porch somewhere, sitting in his own body wastes and waiting for his diaper to be changed.
Not that anyone will notice the change.
"Ted Kennedy has alcoholic dementia."
He's definitely out of control. If he is in the early stages of alcoholic dementia he's going to pay very dearly. People who suffer from it tend to live a very long time, and none of it is pretty. Far from it.
Methinks his normal thought process was spent when he got water on the brain when he went swimming in Chapiquiddick, 37 years ago.
Teddy has lived the rake's progress and it has taken its toll. I was sitting in the front row at a convetion where Kenndy spoke about 8 years ago and I was shocked how bad he looked then. Dear Teddy better get his affairs in order because I don't think he will be around much longer.
Well, in my family we happen to believe that Joe McCarthy had it right!
Teddy is just a very jealous and vindictive old man.
He is jealous of the Bush Family in that they clearly have outshined the Kennedy "Dynasty".
Plus, he is jealous that Condi has more power than he does.
