I'm uncommonly stupid -- even by Kennedy standards.

Just part of a coordinated effort by the Obama administration to segment the Catholic population in the United States into liberal and conservative camps for poltical advantage.

IMHO people like the Kennedy’s are so far removed from normal life that they don’t really understand that the rest of us want to be self determining and that we have dreams and aspirations as big or bigger than theirs. We don’t want to ‘be taken care of’ by a nanny state, with people like the Kennedy’s at the top of the hierarchy feeling good about themselves because they ‘helped the little people’. The rest of us shouldn’t have to live with ridiculous legislation just because they were born into privilege and feel guilty about it.

Truly an idiot. We need all the Kennedys out of politics and “journalism.” They’re non-sensical, stupid, arrogant people who are only in the positions they’re in because of trusts.
Those trusts are largely the result of importing spirits in the dead of night during prohibition. Not a bad thing but the family ought to stick to the beverage industry.

Let's see, who would I rather follow? Someone I can trust with the contents of the collection basket, or someone who has done his damndest to put my grandchildren on the receiving end of the 'poor box'?

No, Ms hyphenated Kennedy, Barrak Obama is not, never was, and never will be my spiritual leader.

My family went with this crap with the Tudors, never again.

This has already been the case for some time. Liberal, non-church going catholics voted for Obama, conservative, church going Catholics didn't.

Money::: That’s the only good reason I can come up with to excuse the Catholic Church for not excommunicating the whole stinking, rotten, klan of shanty Irish Kennedy’s

My neighbor, a Knights of Columbus member, voted for Obama and so did his church going wife. Not sure why, but he thinks Obama is Pro-life. Logic and reason don't seem to matter to him in this matter.

“Not sure why, but he thinks Obama is Pro-life.”

He is either trying to assuage his conscience or he is at a minimum mildly retarded.

...blasted the Bishop of Rome and the Catholic hierarchy for their supposed “disdain” towards women and homosexuals.

And of course, we all are aware of the well-known Kennedy respect for women!

I suspect the mildly retarded but it's his to justify his vote. David is a head strong man and he can never be wrong nor admit he's wrong.

An uncommonly stupid person writing in an uncommonly biased rag (Newsweek). I haven’t read Newsweek since the 80s. I hear they’ve shrunk the “magazine” down to 30 pages per issue or something. I’ll bet that half their subscriptions come from automatic renewals from medical offices.

She had all of the talent necessary TO LOSE the gubernatorial election in heavily Catholic, heavily Democrat Maryland to a Republican.

That ought to tell you something.

Over here in Virginia people continue to thank the Lord that Uncle Ted kept this Townsend ding-dong in Maryland and outta' here.

I'd like to note that that she's not really "uncommonly stupid - even by Kennedy standards", she is, frankly speaking, uncommonly stupid ~ and possibly competing with Carolyn, although there are some of the Kennedy cousins they keep under wraps so we don't really know.

It's like someone overused the forceps in the delivery room on every single one of 'em.

Well, they were educated in public schools here in Georgia and David does work for the State, but they can read because I see their mouths’ moving.

They are really nice folks just sold on the Obama messiah crap. Does the Church do exorcisms for folks like this?

The former lieutenant governor of Maryland began her column, titled "Without a Doubt: Why Barack Obama represents American Catholics better than the pope does

Sure, that's why he opposed the Born-Alive Infants Protection Act, twice even!

BTW, Kathleen Kennedy-Townshend is so stupid that even overwhelmingly Democratic Maryland rejected her as governor.
