Ted Kennedy

[Robert Snow]

One, you brought it up. Be a grown-up and take responsibility.

Two, I wasn't Bush's supervisor, so I don't know. If he skipped out, that's wrong.

Three, your posts have nothing to do with the OP.

Four, what, exactly, is "slamed?" Past tense of "slimed?"

Who said anything about "skipped out?" Must be a Freudian slip on your part.

I note that no one has suggested a potential national figure who could fill Kennedy's shoes as a person whom approx half of all registered voters admired?

I personally hate the word, "hero." It has come to mean anyone stupid enough to volunteer for the armed forces and get himself killed for the oil barons. (In traditional English, the male pronoun represents both genders in this context. Maybe several genders. <G>)

words cannot express the contempt that I feel for this sentiment.

Your opinion is beneath contempt.

On this conspiratorial (folks have been voicing the same sentiment for over a hundred years. though usually the words come from champions of the proletariat.), this thread is closed.
