Ted Kennedy calls Bush's judicial nominees "Neanderthals"

Did anyone see Ted Kennedy a minute ago call Bush's conservative nominees "neanderthals"? This is sickening, and disgraceful to each of the honorable 4 nominees who have been filibustered by the Senate.

Basically, he is saying that anyone with a pro-life, strict constructionist vision of the constitution is a neanderthal. Well, I have one thing to say to you Ted Kennedy: Look in the mirror, that's the only Neanderthal I see in all of this.

Kennedy (paraphrased): "All this talk about the Constitution is SO-OO outdated. We have the judiciary and we have our Marxist, I mean 'progressive' agenda which the judiciary must advance. Americans need to "grow up" and forget all that passe' nonsense about limited Government and a representative Republic."

It ought to be embarrassing that Mr. Kennedy finds himself reduced to name-calling.

I guess any belief in the original constitution makes me a Neanderthal. If that is true, then it must be that all of the Founders were Neanderthals as well. What contempt for our Framers from Teddy "Swimmer" Kennedy.

This from the Senate's own Driving and Swimming Champion, Ted Kennedy? Who'd a' thought he'd resort to this, with such a fine and glorious past?

Maybe he has stress.

Dims always call pubs "stupid" (i.e., primitive caveman) because they really can't argue against their conservative beliefs. For two reasons - conservatism is right and they don't want to give our ideas any more publicity than they have to. Remember when Teddy was trying to keep Rush from playing the words of Teddy's brother, JFK, concerning the benefits of tax cuts? Teddy was afraid people would draw the comparison. They did - they will.

I'm giving Ted the benefit of the doubt that he is even a hominid by calling him a Neanderthal.

I think he just happened to see himself in a mirror and got confused.

Imagine Kennedy's response if a republican called a black woman a neanderthal.

Well, Sen. Kennendy, the US Catholic Bishops have called this month for sanctions to be taken against Catholic politicians who vote against the measures supported by the Catholic church. There is no word on exactly what this means -- will they be excommunicated? Publicly condemned?

Oh yes. I forgot. This will mean nothing to a man who divorced his wife, or who drowned his girl friend -- will it?

I'll bet Neanderthals would at least struggle to save a drowning person.

"Ted Kennedy calls Bush's judicial nominees "Neanderthals"

Nope, we misheard that. Played it back slowly. What he was really saying was that, "Booze...on my knees..."need alcohol".

Here we have a specimine of Homo Chappaquidus. Note the bloated facial features, trembling hands and unhealthy, gin-soaked skin.
