They are basically the same vintage as the conservative media that have been GWB''s accomplices in running this country into the ground during his two terms, shamelessly abnegating their function as a check on abuses by the government.

No fan of the Kennedys, but I, like them, do not want four more years of the Clinton twins.

Washington needs new, young, idealistic, not yet corrupted leaders. The same-o, same-o of the current, old crop of pols, shows us how inept they are. We need a change and McCain and the Clintons do not represent change.

President Kennedy said it best...

"Today we need a nation of minute men; citizens who are not only prepared to take up arms, but citizens who regard the preservation of freedom as a basic purpose of their daily life and who are willing to consciously work and sacrifice for that freedom. The cause of liberty, the cause of American, cannot succeed with any lesser effort."
-- President John F. Kennedy, January 29, 1961

I guess i can imagine why Ted felt using the comments about being assassinated was wrong, half his family has been assassinated, and honestly, pry more to come yet, just a matter of time and whos targeted next.

As for him throwing tantrums as an excuse for not backing Hillary, well i guess everything is a matter of "i dont care what you''ve done for me for the past 20 years, what have you done lately?"

No one but the Obama campaign and their supporters actually made any racial comments. Bill has never made any and never would make any. He''s spent his life trying to bridge the racial gaps and fight for equality of treatment for minorities.
For them to purposely Take his comments as being something they werent is just an excuse to criticize or tarnish the Clintons so a black man can get the votes without earning them for being a good man, but instead for being ''Black'' -- which incidentally is what he has been trying to avoid since entering the campaign race.
Kenney is only driving a Wedge into the Democratic party and doing exactly what the GOP and RNC want them to do. Again the Useless badly organized every man/woman for themselves Democratic party fails to work in unison for a central purpose and instead attack and divide their groups for individual fortune instead of the greater good.
Yippee!

"Turn around & look at Iraq,, Some have water only 2 days out of 5, electricity is sketchy, people are worse off, The government is collapsing, Al Queda in the north & south ---

Then look at the Forgotten War in Afaganistan, another failed state." Posted by j-whitman

Ted Kennedy endorsed Obama, because one loser follows the other. The Kennedy''s are born losers.
