I wish DDD were here to riff on good solid jokes about Kennedy. I bet he could put out five quality ones before any of us even proffered a totally <redacted> one."Wuap's "problem" is that he is smart & principled & committed to a moral course of action. His actions are supposed to reflect his ethical code.
The rest of us rarely bother to think about our actions." --Solon

One of the lions of the Senate gone. I'm glad that at least one Kennedy son got to live to old age.“There is a great deal of difference in believing something still, and believing it again.”
― W.H. Auden
"God made the angels to show His splendour - as He made animals for innocence and plants for their simplicity. But men and women He made to serve Him wittily, in the tangle of their minds."
-- Robert Bolt, A Man for All Seasons
"It is only with the heart that one can see rightly; what is essential is invisible to the eye."
--Antoine de Saint-Exupery

I certainly can feel bad for his family and his friends. I also can understand those who are of the same ideology feeling a great loss. I understand the media calling him the greatest Senator ever. While I certainly don't agree with the last sentence, I am in hopes those who adamantly disagree with Kennedy will give those who mourn for him their time to mourn.
In other words, I hope Limbaugh and Hannity follow the policy the next few days of "if you can't say something nice, keep your mouth shut."
By the way, small snide jokes I think are acceptable.

Well they all love Christian values, so I would be surprised if they don't put those into play and pay respect to him this week. I bet Glenn Beck will represent the LDS very well and show nothing but respect.Originally posted by byu71 View PostIn other words, I hope Limbaugh and Hannity follow the policy the next few days of "if you can't say something nice, keep your mouth shut."Get confident, stupid

So the Kennedy's have tons of money. Did they put their money where their mouth was? Don't know, just asking.Originally posted by CJF View Post
Someone told me that even though Ted was in favor of renewal energy he fought against windmills within view of the Kennedy compound. Just trying to figure out whether the Kennedy's live by the rules they want everyone else to live within.Last edited by Hallelujah; 08-26-2009, 10:06 AM.
