I feel that the US might be wise to take a tip out of Europe's book,

The Bushes, Kennedies and Windsors are fine for scandal and fashion,
but politics is much better done by dull people who are given office
for their ability, rather than because of who their relatives happen to
be.

BWAHAHAHAHAHA!

Yeah, maybe the Constitution can be changed and Gordon Brown and Silvio
Berlusconi can come over and run in 2012...why, shoot, within the first hundred
days, they oughta have everyone farting through silk...

Sheesh,

Ted Kennedy tried to be a leader after 3 of his brothers died: One in
World War II, the favorite who was supposed to run for President. And
2 others were murdered by each a gunman’s bullet. Teddy, in the
meantime, had no mystical sword or was knight of the Round Table.
Teddy was spoiled slush of a drunk who thought only of himself. He
cheated in Harvard & was expelled, yet Joe Kennedy–with his wealth &
influence–had the spoiled Kennedy forced into the school when anyone
else would not have been allowed back. In a drunken stupor, he
murdered Mary Jo Kapachne in Chappaquiddick, yet again was not held
accountable for his actions. Anyone else would have gone to jail for
either murder or manslaughter. Teddy kept his senate seat warm all
these years as he became more of a liberal ideologue bent on Big
Government as 1 senator out of 100 instead of being President of the
United States when he ran in 1980. Senator Ted Kennedy cheated on his
wife, had ravaged young women with Senator Chris Dodd to make a
“waitress sandwich” while in a drunken haze, & lived a hypocritical
life such as when he pandered to the Environmentalists, yet did not
want the wind farms on Martha’s Vinyard. If Senator Edward Kennedy was
the lion of the senate, he was the Cowardly Lion from the Wizard of Oz
who was scared of his own shadow. In other words, Senator Ted Kennedy
was all bark & no bite (unless you were a hapless waitress or a woman
he found he wanted for the night). There is no Camelot with the
Kennedy’s; it was all about political power & domination of the
average American the Kennedy’s claimed to represent.

Oh they're both awful. But they got to where they are through their own
merits, not because of who Pop or Big Brother was. And neither of them
are ex-movie stars.

But no-one WANTS Liz or Phil to have power. That's the point. Like
George Bush, they're not very bright (although Liz is much, much
brighter than her idiot son Charles). But they don't need to be.

It's only the US electorate that wants movie stars and Royalty to have
political power.

His "trial" was a travesty. He
should have gone to jail.

as you've read already, I agree with that part.

can't speak to Gordie, but Silvio got to where he got with a lot of help
from some particularly unsavory folks..

The funeral is today, that was a 'celebration of
life' last night. If you cannot figure out Ted Kennedy's accomplishments, it
doesn't shock me.

Tom, there are those that have tried to politize his death by linking
it with the health bill. "Let's make Ted's dream come true," etc. etc.
Leaders in both houses have mentioned it.

well, I warned you, Keng.......

Anyhow, I am probably in agreement with Family-Outdoors(by the way, a name
would be nice, F-O.). I figured on a few demonstrations of blind ideology
overtaking any nuance or sense of dignity. The whole of the man's life is a
bizarre picture, but maybe Will is correct that the ledger tilts to the
positive. I don't know.
Rick speaks of conduct the man apparently got behind himself 10 years or so
ago. Certainly, he benefitted from undue priviledge in the handling of his
causing the death of another. Yet, politically, he became very savvy and a
positive legislative influence. He stuck to certain principles in his
legislative agenda with consistency. Time will tell where the verdict falls.

Tom, what do you think of his annulment of his marriage of 25 years?
Do you think you or I could have received such special favor from the
Catholic Church? Or would we have to divorce our spouces and deal with
it like everyone else. Like his trial, yet another travesty.
