Didn't see this.
Obama’s hug to Vicki after his eulogy is so telling of O’s perspective. It was all about “Vicki’s congrats to him”. O did not give a warm, consoling hug.
He is an empty frickin suit with no heart.
He was more concerned with touching Teddy’s casket then hugging widow.
I have to agree- Jr. was the class act there today. Kind, warm and respectful of the right and the left
Geez, all the media slathering about Obama being the political heir of the Kennedys for THAT! Ted Jr. was by far a more effectual speaker.
obama not watching whatever this is the priest is doing with the smoke
Your right.I saw the video where she hit her head and she ate on vacation:)
You could’ve grabbed one of those blubbering union goons off the streets of Boston and he would’ve given a more heartfelt and personal tribute.
Incredibly, the coldness of marxist 0bama actually made me think better of Dead Ted. At least there was no doubt that he was very human and had very human emotions.
LOL! I love Catholic humor! And I have boys that can pass the bells from alter boy to alter boy without the polish ladies in the front row seeing it!
"In July 2004, her oldest son Edward Moore Kennedy, Jr. was appointed as her legal guardian. In 2005 her children were granted temporary guardianship by a court judge. That year, she was hospitalized with a concussion and a broken shoulder after being found lying in a Boston street near her home.
Joan Kennedy apparently resented the guardianship and in 2005 she asked her second cousin, financial planner Webster E. Janssen from Connecticut, who established a trust to control her $9 million estate, which included a condo on Back Bay and the house on Squaw Island in Hyannis Port.
Janssen also denied Joan’s children access to records of her assets and put up the Hyannis Port house on the market, a violation of the court order that had placed Edward Moore Kennedy, Jr. in control of affairs.
The Kennedy children took successful legal action against Janssen, blocking the sale of the house and removing Janssen as the trustee. They also filed a complaint against Janssen with the Securities & Exchange Commission “for financial advisor malpractice” and “ethics violations”.
Joan Kennedy agreed to strict court-ordered supervision with a guardian, to avoid being placed in permanent custody of her children, and her estate has since been placed in a new trust overseen by two court-appointed trustees.
Joan Bennett Kennedy was diagnosed with breast cancer and underwent surgery in October 2005. She resides on Cape Cod and in Boston.
There's going to be a run on the washrooms such as never before seen.

That’s Hillary Clinton. She’s the wife of a former President.
“..who more than self their country love, and mercy more than life..”
I have noticed last night and today every time someone gets through speaking Vicki runs up in front and hugs them. It looks really odd at a funeral.
Oh, if only the priest would start shouting: "THE POWER OF CHRIST COMPELS YOU! THE POWER OF CHRIST COMPELS YOU -- !!!" ;)
after watching last night and today...Teddy Jr comes out the best of all of them..if we have to have a Kennedy..better him than the rest.
I swear it looked like Obama was making an actual effort not to look...
