In accordance with the maxim, "De mortuis nil nisi bonum," I won't speak ill of the dead. At least not now.

I gave Sen. Kennedy respect for consistency at least. I opposed almost every policy he ever advocated (I can't think of an exception but there may be some here and there), but at least he was up-front about his positions and didn't sail under false colors, unlike some I could name. Better an open enemy than a pretended friend.

Your thoughts?

Not at all. But that can wait until later.

I can say at least one good thing about him: he helped Jimmy Carter fail in his bid for re-election in 1980.

At least one of them was lucky enough to bag Marilyn Monroe.

A shame to see him go no matter what political party he was.

It was JFK. That's why he had her killed.


Anyway, in response to the thread, couldn't stand the man. Anyone who supports terrorists organisations is a scumbag in my mind.

So you wouldn't support a group that you agreed with just cos they were terrorists?

People who target innocents don't get my support.

That makes no sense, but coming from you that isn't surprising.
