Anyone notice Ted Kennedy Passed Away?
« on: August 26, 2009, 08:28:56 am »
It's sad no matter what my feelings were toward him. The Kennedy family lost a lot for the benefit of this country over the years, but now it's over. He was the last of a long reign of political giants.

I do feel bad for the Kennedy family.  They are probably still grieving Eunice's death and now this.

It's a shame, but he really did last quite a while being as sick as he was.

It's a shame of course, but it's not like I knew him personally. He was pretty old and suffering so  he was probably ready.

it is sad because it is like a loss for the American people.  even if you are not a democrate it would not matter , the kennedy family looked out for America's best interest. :wave:

I understand their grief, as I lost my husband to cancer last October.  His family was a very political and an inspiration for some.  Personally, I was more interested in JFK and Jackie and their lives.  I am afraid Teddy messed up his career on a bridge many years ago.

My daughter wrote a paper on him for school. She did pretty good. She wants to be a music journalist. She is 12 now.

It's sad, but, does anyone remember the death of a young woman that lost her life at a bridge years previously at his hands. I do. He was important, but, so was she, to her family. Let's morn her loss before morning his departure.
