Why would anyone think Ted Kennedy was anything short of a saint?
Fought for the poor, fought against Vietnam, fought fought fought
Yet, there are a ton of self-described "liberals" who think he was a bastion of self-gratification
Chappaquiddick, that was over 40 years ago
Let, it, go....
If that is the worst thing a man has on his conscience, he did pretty well...

7. The only thing he did wrong was cheat on his wife
Honestly, I'd rather have someone who cheats on their wife, but stays on our side, than someone who shows fidelity, and ****s us all over.
Dubya never cheated on his wife, but he cheated on US.
The big meanie shows up to pee in his cheerios

10. Let them. Teddy cheated on his wife, nothing more.
OK - you're in a car, having fun, and you end up in the water. This can happen easier than you think. He survives, she does not. Is that his fault?
She should have taken swimming lessons according to tavie.
This thread did not turn out the way he wanted I think and the mods rush in to douse the fire.

23. Locking.
Due to the degree of negativity that's spun from this post.
Happy Holiday Season.

He's such a douchebag. The combination of tequila and Jim Beam (according to Tav) inspired that post.

He seems to be trying a little too hard to be top DUmmie.

Yeah, he's a saint--Saint Lucifer. :whistling:

I'd personally like to congratulate the Senator on his first full year sober. (It took the first year for the remaining alcohol to leach out...)

He was a fat, disgusting, amoral pig of a man, possessed of great wealth and afforded totally-undeserved good will, both the legacy of the deaths of his three much smarter brothers. He did have a certain sense of noblesse oblige toward the peons, but only so long as he could address it with public monies, not his own.

If I recall correctly Fat Ted also was involved in a little thing between him and Chris Dodd and a waitress? Then there is that little thing about his body guards running loose in DC with illeagle MP5 submachineguns that would have netted anyone of us a 20+ year stretch in a Federal prison. I'm sure that Taverner is ok with the fact Fat Ted went over to Russia to see how he could backstab a sitting President over our National Security.

Agreed, wholeheartedly.
"Hypocrisy" was Vast Teddy's middle name.
His liberal generosity was with other people's money, not his.

Ted was the Fredio of the Kennedy brothers. He just got lucky and out lived them.

The worst part was she didn't drown, she suffocated.
That worthless piece of shit (which is an insult to shit. Even shit has a use.) wandered up and down the road for almost 12 hours before he even called the police!
He then proceeded to lie his ass off and use his last name to keep himself out of prison. But it kept him out of the White House, too.

So was the civil rights movement.

The irony in all this is the Kennedy family is representative of the 1% they hate: they are spoiled, amoral with regards to their own wealth and especially their behavior, pigs when it comes to their treatment of women unless they are a sainted Kennedy wife and then you will still get cheated on, and they thwarted the law for decades to accumulate the wealth they have to begin with. Why the idiots who are invested in something like occupy would ever think the Kennedy's are 'one of them' is beyond me. Same thing with Soros. Many rich liberals are the epitome of the kind of swindler they wish to oust, but they gladly lay down as bedfellows with them. Mostly I think it's because they are morons unaware of history and some are just plain evil--taking sides with people they really find objectionable to their own ends. I certainly know that's the only reason rich liberals lay down with the occupoopers.

So who was Sonny? Who was Michael?

Ted Kennedy was a murderer, plain and simple. Compared to that, I suppose you could characterize lying, scamming, drunken public debauchery, cheating on his wife and so on as "minor flaws". :bird: :fuelfire:
He was a disgusting pig of a man who never bothered to admit he left Mary Jo in that car to die. I wonder how many of his professed fans would have been okay had he done that to THEIR daughter.

The same people who think of Teddy as a saint, were the same people who blasted Bush for a DUI that resulted in a traffic ticket, and no injuries or deaths, from 20 years before the election.

Lets see... Joe was Sonny John was Michael and Robert was Tom.

Oh come on now, Boudicca. It was involuntary manslaughter. After all....that's so much better. :whatever:
The only thing that makes him better than Casey Anthony is that it wasn't a little girl in his case.

Since he was driving -- and drunk at the time -- yes.
Idiot.

I've long believed that the Kopechne family are just as contemptible as Dead Ted.
They allowed the Kennedys to buy them off in less time than it took their daughter to suffocate.

I wasn't around at the time so I'm not familiar with any settlements or payoffs they might have agreed to.

Ted Kennedy, youngest male in the family was well taught by two older brothers and his dad Old Joe, not to mention his sisters husbands.
Perhaps the most interesting brother in that family, could be because he out lived them by 40+ years. He may have owed his life to Mary Jo as if he had a serious shot at the WH, he would have been next.
He did what he could to become a father figure to dozens of nieces and nephews, teaching them how to survive scandal and prison. That one nephew that he managed to keep out of prison for 25-30 years for the murder he committed as a teenager, Then the Nephew that raped a woman on his front lawn, who after a night of hard drinking with him and friends is now a DOCTOR practicing somewhere.
We can go on and on here, he had to handle everything bad that happend to his family from drug over doses to stealing His mothers pain medicine, reckless behavior, etc. Then the biggest tragedy in his life the loss of Young John Kennedy and the canceling of his nieces wedding.
This gave rise to the middle class thanking God we did not come from a rich and powerfull family. His life made most of think that if this is what money and power gets one in life, NO THANKS.
One of the most interesting men in politics, his evening runs on the beach stark naked, His poor wife that he drove insane, Quite a colorfull character, one in a million, yet he had his fans ready to over look his transgressions and keep him in office.
No one of the sane would trade places with anyone in that family, we thought there was a Curse on the family.
Only one to escape is Caroline Kennedy so far. Who knows, watch the news, the Curse is still there.

"The only thing he did wrong was cheat on his wife"
AND drive drunk, getting a woman killed,
AND try and cover it up,
AND more recently torpedo a proposal to install offshore wind power mills, on the grounds that they'd be built in a section of the ocean where he liked to go yachting.
Shall I go on?
-
Shall I go on?
yes

Well, I can't disagree with the lardass Dead Ted on the windmills. They are, without exception, nothing but huge boondoggles against the taxpayers.
But when he left that girl in an air pocket in a sunken car, to slowly suffocate over a span of maybe an hour, he secured his place for an eternity in Hell.

I'm surprised no one over there has suggested his plunge into the water with Mary Jo was simply a botched baptism.

Eh, those people don't believe in baptism, or hell, or anything that smacks of Christianity. Now, if you want to verbally fellate Islam, Buddhism, Satanism, Wicca, etc., they're all ears.
Yeah, I do apologize for the fellate word with you, and all the other refined ladies of CC. But it's late and I can't honestly think of any other description of what they do with religions other than the JudeoChristian one this country was founded on.
