What balance? we dont have to look at his moral failures....like KILLING a woman... to find the things that Made Kennedy a miserable human being. what he did as a senator is enough.
ADA? really? Take a look at the state of Healthcare in this country. by and large Mr. Kennedy led the charge to make it the mess that it is today.
Mr. Kennedy was a leader in insuring America LOST in vietnam and he tried the same junk with Iraq. Untold American service men have DIED because of the "moral support" that man has given our enemies!
Do you know how Mr. Kennedy got the nickname "Red Ted"? IT was because as a senator he advocated making "nice" with the SOVIET UNION!
Mr. Kennedy didnt meet a communist he didnt admire or an enemy he wasnt willing to surrender to.
we dont have to talk about Mary Jo, or the rape he covered up, or the womanizing or the drinking to talk about how the man hurt America. We can stick to what he did as a senator.
