Somehow I don’t see him giving Sarah Palin the same consideration.
a legend
the patriarch of a clan that belonged in Camelot (think castles and flags waving) -
And Rose - who can forget the saint - and Joe
and JohnJohn’s salute
- Gods, Irish Kings I tell you. Kennedy's live - - live large - in Kennedy Compounds - not “houses” like odinary subjects.
Gods - fall down on your knees - join with the MSM and worship THE KENNEDY LION ( I want to vomit)
Well — for starters: using the coercive power of government to take the earnings of productive people and give them over to the stupid, the lazy and the ignorant...... is NOT “Good Deeds”.
YES!
“Special programs every night devoted to nothing but pundits bickering over the depths of the 37-year-old Kennedy’s responsibility for the death of Mary Jo Kopechne, 28.”
What was there to argue about? The bastard let her suffocate to save his cowardly fat ass...I hate these dimwitted, snarky SOBs...
“How wall-to-wall Chappaquiddick would have changed history — for the worse —”
Tell that to Mary Jo’s parents
According to the author's logic this Hart should not have been dumped because he might have done some great things.
Truth is, Kennedy's problem was way worse than Hart's even though they had the media. Truth is, it wasn't the coverage. It was the fact that the media covered for Kennedy because he was a Kennedy.
Boy howdy, am I making myself sick . . . .
The Chicago contingent chimes in.
And lest we forget:
As HUMAN EVENTS first reported on December 8, 2003:
One of the documents, a KGB report to bosses in the Soviet Communist Party Central Committee, revealed that “In 1978, American Sen. Edward Kennedy requested the assistance of the KGB to establish a relationship” between the Soviet apparatus and a firm owned by former Sen. John Tunney (D-Ca.). KGB recommended that they be permitted to do this because Tunney’s firm was already connected with a KGB agent in France named David Karr. This document was found by the knowledgeable Russian journalist Yevgenia Albats and published in Moscow’s Izvestia in June 1992.
Kennedy offered to speak out against President Carter on Afghanistan. Shortly thereafter he made public speeches opposing President Carter on this issue. This document was found in KGB archives by Vasiliy Mitrokhin, a courageous KGB officer, who copied documents from the files and then defected to the West. He wrote about this document in a February 2002 paper on Afghanistan that he released through the Cold War International History Project of the Woodrow Wilson Center.

Instead we had a coverup of the murder of a young woman who died at the hands of a man named Kennedy.
This, being contemporary art, sort of sums up the feelings of at least part of Cambridge at the time.
Kennedy Lied, Mary Joe Died! - And it is the absolutely TRUTH!
My other favorite is "The Good Die Young!"
I suggest the Senate retire his seat. Let’s not sully his legacy by electing what would undoubtedly be a less worthy replacement. Massachusetts would just have to do with one less senator.
Please allow me to summarize:
“It’s a good thing we liberals have the press to do our laundry for us... it would be a drag if the public got a good look at all the crapstains in our political underwear, like fer instance, Chappaquiddick...”
In fact, shouldn’t all liberals be left somewhere to asphyxiate over several hours?
If it’s such a good thing, why not?
Just when I am trying to find a reason to be respectful of Senator Kennedy and his family, along comes another insipid, solipsistic article from a goo-brained liberal that makes me want to fly to Arlington, drink half a case of beer, and piss out the Eternal Flame.
