TEDDY K: MEDIA ANAL POISONING AHEAD (Aug 8 post)

Probably
in 2009 one of the worst moral midgets of my generation will die. He
never worked a day in a real private job and thus became a lifelong pig
at the gov-meant trough of power. He was born with millions in his
trust fund yet claimed to completely understand poverty.

This man was a known serial offender on many fronts. He left a woman
to drown inside a car (he was driving) in less than 5 feet of water.
She was trapped in the car while he made CYA calls before calling the
police. His family power made sure there was no normal sequence of
investigation or an autopsy. He was a well known skirt chaser and
boozer. He claimed to be a catholic yet always voted for
abortion…decade after decade. He pushed eco-wacko stuff but fought
windmills near where he stayed. He paid for another student to take his
test in college.

He pushed secular socialism at every turn with vicious distorted rants (not reason or logic-based) against those that disagreed.
He trashed America with the usual democrat guilt trips, victim worship
and demon fears. For this he will be lionized as some sort of hero.
His brother JFK was a known serial adulterer who also went back on his word so Castro got Cuba.
Another Kennedy kin died flying at night when he was not certifed to do so.

The secular socialist clan of Kennedys paved the way for democrat
moral midgets like the Klintons to succeed because the fawning liberal
media gave them a pass year after year. The skeptical “media anal
exams” have become reserved for any conservative or Republican.
Hence, here we are in a cultural Oz.

Now Teddy wants the state law changed for political reasons to
quickly get a successor on his throne. As usual, the voters are never
to be trusted, even in Kookatushetts. His very name was arrogance…at
least until Obama came along. Records are made to be broken they say.

Imagine for a minute if the above post described any non-liberal
member of congress…imagine. This too is yet another indication of the
state of our political culture and the network media. Expect hours of
TV worship for Teddy. What does that tell you about American media
values?

Is it any wonder more and more thinking people realize “Liberalism is a mental disorder”?
Update: Teddy K died August 25, 2009.

Liberals are agenda-driven, through-and-through. Nothing else matters -- nothing.

You've got that right, T....Her Speakerness shamed herself. Again.

No class, all a$$.

Not an atom of shame in her body.

I guess now we are morally obliged to live under government-run health care, because that was Uncle Teddy's wish for us.

Well put Tom- the whole Kennedy clan are a bunch of scumbags

Normally I have pretty strong opinions in matters of religion and politics.  Kennedy's death leaves me with mixed thoughts.  Five years ago I'd be agreeing with Tom in a big way.

Having become more serious about my Catholic Faith over that time, I have become more sympathetic to the idea that we should wish for God's mercy on all souls.

I'm with Roger. I didn't agree with pretty much anything Ted Kennedy stood for, but I think this is not the time for metaphorically dancing on one's grave.

I can appreciate, though, the character and restraint it will take over the next few days to not wish to counterbalance some of the gushing that will take place, particularly from those who showed no remorse or simply displayed exuberance and glee over the passing of the likes of Bob Novak and Tony Snow.

We are neither judge nor jury, therefore it isn't up to us to judge the man's life. 

My condolences to Ted Kennedy's family.

I hope he fails, too.

Yes, can't disagree with that.

And the left is going to use Kennedy's death to ram through the healthcare debacle.

Had to laugh listening to Fred Barnes on the phone to Aynsley Erhart on Fox as news broke.

Fred said "lion of the senate blah blah..."

Then Aynsley asked "What would his legislative legacy be ... Fred says "Er, nothing."

Thanks Barack! You've done more to promote conservatism than any president since Ronald Reagan (PBUH).

Clever  -- good --funny!!!

There will be a special election.  Even with overwhelming majorities in the house and Senate here the Dems wouldn't have the cajones to push through another law change just 5 years later for completely transparent political reasons.  The 1st time was bad enough and left a pretty sour taste.

Plus many of these people now have their eyes on the bigger prize and need an election.  They would hamstring their own ambitions by changing the rules. 

2012 campaign slogan - "Carter got his 2nd term, NOW can we move on?"

think so...Number 1, she's not a Massachussetts resident, but lives in New York, and number 2, she has shown herself to be a pretty dim bulb this last year, when her name was being tossed around as a possible candidate for Hillary's senate seat. Her disastrous interview with the New York Times was a real eye opener for many, in which she was revealed to be completely ineloquent and lacking any of her family's oft reported charm or political energy.

Scratch Caroline off the list for sure.

"The problem is not that people are taxed too little...the problem is that government spends too much." ~President Ronald Reagan

I for one am going to take Kennedy's calls for service for our country and his championing of liberal causes like the environment to heart.  I am going to honor his legacy by starting a fund raising drive. 

 I want to see if we can raise enough money to build the Kopechne Memorial Bridge to replace the aging and environmentally unfriendly "Chappy Ferry" that now operates where the bridge to Chapaquiddick used to be.

2012 campaign slogan - "Carter got his 2nd term, NOW can we move on?"

This is the time to lay aside politics and show respect for his family.

 "The problem with socialism is that eventually you run out of other people's money." Margaret Thatcher 

There is a reason the socialists won in the case of Bork, and in the cases of the judicial nominations of the last administration.  That reason is the myth of "the moral high ground."  Conservatives and to a lessor degree Libertarians are not driven by emotion so much as by logic, so despite having control of the Congress the GOP compromised and negotiated away the power granted them by the electorate in the name of "bipartisanship" since, "we are better than they are." 

Bollocks. . . the socialists are not merely political opponents, they are the sworn enemies of the principles of individual freedom, individual responsibility, and limited government. . . and if we are unwilling to show the same level of emotion and conviction to defeat them then we will loose.

Ted Kennedy was scum, being dead only makes him dead scum, everything, every single thing he did in public life was designed to undermine the principles this country was founded on. 

Many of us cherish the right to free speech and so did not complain when the socialists spoke their mind about Reagan, Novak, or Snow.  Many of us know we are better than them, not for holding our tongues when a demagogue like Kennedy dies, but for opposing him and his kind by any and all means legally available.

Taking the "We're better than that" attitude shows weakness to the enemy, not strength.  Because the "moral high ground" is of precious little solace when your nation lies buried there.

Just my opinion of course.

It didn't take long for someone to trot out that lame cliche.  It's this self-important, fruitless, uniquely Republican pursuit to "be better than liberals" that enabled a poisonous crook like Ted Kennedy to acquire the unchecked power to irreparably damage this nation the way he has.  The more the Republican Party employs the likes of Orrin Hatch, Lindsey Graham and John McCain to politely and respectfully "oppose" "our misguided friends" and our "cross-aisle colleagues" like Ted Kennedy, John Kerry, Barack Obama, Chuck Schumer and Dick Durbin to maintain some misplaced sense of moral superiority, the more the nation suffers the consequences of their destructive policies.  So, if it makes you feel better not to "sink to their level", go for it...but keep in mind, nobody will give you credit for your "principled" position because only you care about it.  And don't expect those of us who are, at best, indifferent to the demise of this scumbag to feel any shame for expressing our hostility...we don't, nor should we.

"I spent a lot of money on booze, birds and fast cars. The rest I just squandered."  -George Best

And Jeffrey Dahmer had unique 'tastes' in food.

Ted Kennedy got drunk, ran off a bridge, killed a young girl and used the full weight of his political machine to obstruct the investigation, escape accountability and deny her family closure.

Ted Kennedy deliberately undermined this country's battle against Islamic terrorism by falsely accusing President Bush of telling 'lie after lie after lie' and intentionally giving aid and comfort to the enemy.

Manslaughter and treason are not 'screwups'

Ted Kennedy was a thoroughly despicable person who escaped accountability for his egregious crimes (at least on earth).

Nationalized Healthcare is a DEATH SENTENCE.
