    BOSTON — The late Massachusetts U.S. Sen. Edward Kennedy has been awarded Mexico's highest honor for his lifelong support of immigrants and Mexican-Americans. Mexican President Felipe Calderon (fay-LEE'-pay kahl-duh-ROHN') on Thursday presented the Order of the Aztec Eagle to Kennedy's widow, Vicki, in Washington, D.C. Kennedy's longtime Senate colleagues John Kerry of Massachusetts and Christopher Dodd of Connecticut also were present. The award honors heads of state and other foreign dignitaries for distinguished service to Mexico or to humankind.

    Still fawning over Ted Kennedy, that is. Actually, I think we passed the "fawning" stage a few days ago - this has been going on 24/7 for the last 5 days straight - and have moved to the "cult of personality" stage. How much coverage did Ronald Reagan get when he passed? A 1-hour special? At least he actually WAS a US President (and never killed someone)!! Is this network acting on Ted Turner's direct orders to implement wall-to-wall coverage? Just makes no sense. Anyone care to predict what day (or`week) this revolting garbage will stop?
