    RIP Ted Kennedy
    If you haven't heard, Sen. Ted Kennedy succumbed to his brain tumor. Whatever any of us think of him, he was a passionate voice and loved by many. My condolences to the Kennedy family.

    Now be nice...

    The Kennedys were a long time voice in American politics. I didn't agree with him most of the time. I downright DISAGREED with him on just about every issue that came along. But he was a passionate voice for his positions.

    The passing of Teddy Kennedy heralds the end of an era in American Politics and in the "American Camelot" mythology that so many Americans found romantic.

    Truth is, when you compare the political dynastic families in American Politics, the Kennedy Family held a special place in the hearts of the American people that the Bush Family and Clinton Family and even the Rockefeller Family (three of the most powerful political dynasties in US history) could never reach. We have now come to the end of that era.

    I find that most people besmirch themselves with their own actions. I just have a tendency to point it out to them and the rest of the world. I find that Tom has a similar way of dealing with it.

    Maybe you should read the verse...

    When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things.

    He who is not a Liberal when they are young has no heart. He is not conservative as they grow old has no brains.

    (Personally, I never had a heart. I was always a conservative like this... )

    Ahhhh, but SOME people here clearly never put away their childish things and have no desire to do so even now.
