I'm not going to talk about how I feel about Sen. Kennedy's career, politics, and personal choices. Its not the place. The man has died, leaving behind a grieving widow, children, family, and friends that deserve proper time to say goodbye to him without the shouts of partisan politics ringing around them. One must marvel that the man was in the Senate since 1962, since our fathers were in boyhood. He was in news reels about his ambassador father since the 1930s.
I do have one wish for Senator Kennedy. I have two brothers so I hope that wherever he is he can finally see his brothers again.
it definitely was difficult to write about Ted Kennedy today. I did my best not to sound too offensive. Nice job on your part.

I always remember to paraphrase the Bard - we shall never look upon his like again.
Although I did not vote for him and tended to disagree with most of his political positions, he was my Senator for all the years I lived in Massachusetts.
I wish Ted Kennedy peace, I said a prayer for him, and I hope that his family and friends will be given "room" by the media (and everyone else who comes out of the woodwork when a celebrity dies), so that his family and friends can grieve and say good-bye to him as they wish.

yall seem to be afraid even though he dead. so far all ive seen or heard or READ, with little exception, has been tributes to a beast who was a lying power-mongering murderer not fit to be a leader much less to tributed (in arlington!!!!!!!!!!!!!!). This spineless weak kneed attempt to show humanity to one who could not show same is as shameful as the freak jacko tribute.
hey wait a minute. you put freak jacko and dead teddy on the same plateau. now i understand. i take it all back.
yeah the major pain said that
