You know, Scieffer was right.

Ted Kennedy was *WAY* ahead of his time: for instance, he pioneered waterboarding.

Cheers!

He was a drunken murderer. May he burn in Hell.

Steyn made a fine observation the other day by comparing Profumo to Kennedy, and informing us that Profumo never acted again as a public official after his much less disgraceful turn in scandal. Kennedy, on the other hand, cravenly abandoned a woman to die, and then spent the next four decades, according to Ed Klein, collecting jokes about it.

Kennedy lived a life of luxurious wealth and privilege, never atoning in the slightest for Kopechne's demise, a William Zanzinger to the end. Even as an old man he was known to parade drunk in his boxers in front of young women his nephews dragged back to the Palm Beach mansion for sex.

Profumo spent his trailing years in soup kitchens serving the poor with his own sweat and keeping his nose clean.

Who was the greater man? The answer is obvious.

Kennedy (all of them) is/was a pompous, pampered, pickle-livered punk with a camelot fantasy and a deranged sense of self based on his willingness to give other peoples’ money to still other people (after he takes his cut) and feel himself a fine fellow for his generosity.

Such BS is why Bob Schieffer is on CBS.

I wonder how many times that a real hero like Audy Murphy drove off a bridge in a drunken stupor and abandoned his helpless passenger. Kennedy was a drunk Scotch swilling piece of garbage and his time should have ended at Chappaquidick also. What a shame all these years our country had to endure this pile of goat smegma.
