Ted Kennedy
Does anyone else find it sickening the way people have forgot about the dirty dealings of this man, in the weekend papers and todays "The last of the Kennedy Dynasty"
The old man, Joe Kennedy hated the British with a passion, while JFK was an all American good-looker but a womaniser never the less,and dear old Bobby, allegedly was linked to the "mob"
Lest we forget, Ted Kennedy left a young woman to die, Mary Jo Kopechne rather than face up to him also playing the field, the families assetts were from ill gotten gain namely organised crime, so I, for one, can't go all mushy on the departure of the last Kennedy!

Joy....spot on.
Haven't you noticed that everybody is wonderful after they have died?
Can you imagine at the funeral service of someone...." he was a miserable old s0d, nobody liked him, tight fisted, confrontational, left wing layabout for which the world will be a better place without him"
No Joy, life is not like that.

who says people have forgotten? I haven't seen a single news story or obituary that hasn't mentioned Chappaquiddick, usually at length.
Couldn't care less about where the money came from (you think the royal family's wealth was honourably obtained?) Couldn't care less about bootlegger Joseph. Couldn't care less about whether JFK was a womaniser (he was also a war hero.) They are remembered for being politicians, not for what they did off the field. Did they do well? Teddy spent decades working hard on legislation affecting almost every American. So Americans remember him - though you don't have to.
He's not the last, there's a sister still alive, I think.

You only had to look at his bloated face to see that he was an habitual drunkard. He also watched while his son raped a woman on the beach and did nothing to help her. The son got off on a technicality if I remember it rightly.
I found the eulogies sickening, but what sickened me even more was that he was given a knighthood by Gordon Brown. This after siding with the IRA at every turn and welcoming those barbarians to America and treating them like heroes. Has GB no shame?

Hi sqad, spot on, I want o be at my wake...lol
why should everyone else have fun...?
to answer you jno, your'e right, I don't have to fawn all over the Kennedy name and when I said the Kennedy clan, I'm sorry but I meant the brothers, as far as I am aware, the sister is or has been quite low profile, and Ted Kennedy did leave someone to die, regardless what he did off the field

Seriously, one of the brothers was killed during military service in WW11. Two others were assassinated.
Ted Kennedy matured into a decent, left wing by American standards, politician.
Their father scrambled his way to the top, and did what was necessary to get there. That's the American way.
Consider George Bush, during the Vietnam war he served his country as a coast guard stationed on the East Coast of the USA near Washington.
The Kennedys weren't plaster saints, but America can be proud of them.
