Seems to me that JFK made the same claim. It turned out that his statement was true, as that was roughly the number of Americans who were on diets trying to lose weight (LOL).

[tkathy]

I thought they were all obese, and going to bed fat because of fast food.

" "We have 36 million Americans that are going to bed hungry every night. "

Well, if we add in all of the weight-obsessed, live-forever vegetarians (Dems, all), that number might be pretty close to accurate....

Once again, Big Ted speaks out of the wrong orifice.....

Maybe he should feed some of those people.

[Long Island Pete]

Did Kennedy point and jab his finger at Chris Wallace?

and she would have agreed with every aspect of his tireless work
as a legislator for illegal aliens and terrorists.”

36 million Americans go to bed hungry and I have enough food to look like this!!!

[unixfox]

I went to bed hungry last night too Ted, but it was because I left the steak out too long while I was out all day.

It's amazing, how prescient one can be, while staring at the bottom of an upturned highball glass

[operation clinton cleanup]

I went to bed hungry last night.... I was to lazy to go to the kitchen and make a sandwich.

[Loud Mime]

Kennedy also said that we needed Day Care and Health Care for every American.

Let's open the borders, provide day care and health care and see what happens.

[Txsleuth]

This is too easy...

It is obvious that Teddy hasn't gone to bed hungry even one day in his whole life....and he NEEDS to.

[Elle Bee]

But does any Kennedy ever go to bed thirsty?

.

[Disambiguator]

What he meant to say is that Americans with $36 million wake up hungover every day. He is, of course, referring to himself.

[Lonesome in Massachussets]

Gee, I dunno, there are so many "food banks" and soup kitchens, it must take extraordinary exertion to go hungry in this country. I suspect that if a child goes hungry it's because Mommy is too doped up to waddle her fat ass down to the local "food pantry" for some free Cheerios.

This just goes to prove that fat, limousine-socialist, alcoholics don't know how to read.
