World Net Daily ^ | 2-22-06 | Ron Strom

A community college student in Massachusetts faces possible disciplinary action for shouting "Remember Chappaquiddick!" during an on-campus speech by Democrat Sen. Edward Kennedy.

Paul Trost, 20, a student at Massasoit Community College in Brockton, Mass., says he was upset by an introduction of Kennedy given by Rep. Stephen Lynch, D-Mass., in which the congressman noted how the long- time senator overcame hardship in life on his way to success.

"Lynch said Kennedy had overcome such adversity to get to the place he was, and that's a bunch of bull," Trost said of the introduction, which occurred in the school's student center Tuesday morning....

On April 21, 1971 (see the date on the picture) my late husband was still in the jungles of Vietnam while these two ba$tards were plotting to destroy the reputation of every decent combat veteran. To hell with both of them.

How ironic that one of the worst political figures(Fat Teddy) in America's history is born on the same day as possibly it's best (Washington).

Happy Washington's B'day!

Freedom is not for liberals, I guess.

OMG grimmy, did you see this??

I did now! Congratulations to Mr. Trost, who merely said what most of America was already thinking.

Nothing in the press?

Nothing on Google?

The MSM has again decided to stay silent.

I've seen and heard members of the Senate yell the exact same phrase when Teddy approaches the floor of the Senate. Liberal professors have taken over academia.

Kennedy needs to be flogged in public, but conservatives still shouldn't resort to leftist grunge tactics.

I believe that was a National Lampoon parody... done in the early 70's.

LOL. Teddy created his own hardships that would have destroyed any man not born with a $100 million in his trust fund and a corrupt political machine that would for ever pull his ass out of the fire.

Such a tough life the poor guy had.

What this student did was not right, however, how can the dems complain when the general college campuss procedure for conservative speakers such as Ann Coulter is to shout down the speaker or pie them in the face. I remember (20 plus years now) when the UMass republicans had a Reagan/Bush rally and the College democrats shouted down the rally. It seems this is a standard democrat party tactic.

It's time we all respect free speech, but what comes around, goes around.

BTW, Ted Kennedy should be in(or just getting out of) jail and not running for US Senate.

Good thing the student didn't throw a pie or wear a T-shirt with a political message. /sarcasm
