Politics....

Re: Ted Kennedy Died

It is sad that we have lost the Lion of the Senate. Gag.

Sure, he was a troubled man but it was his problems that molded him into the fighter he was. DOUBLE Gag.

As a New England Democrat, he was probably one of the least corrupt in the Senate. How comforting

I wish he would have lived long enough to see some real health care reform. Be careful what you wish for.

Teddy Shotgun should be given credit as a great politician and legislator. Why?

I didn't say great man or drinker or even husband, but he was a Kennedy, the last part should go without saying. I'm not even sure what that means.

You don't like the guy, we get it. There's no need to jump down the throats of anyone who does. At this point, you're just trolling and trying to bait the guy into a political discussion (and succeeded) which will get this thread closed.

Yes it is. Please keep it to condolences or critiques of all of his personal fallacies. Thanks.

PS......RIP.

Re: Ted Kennedy Died

Really? I want exact quotes to back up that claim.

I was being a bit tongue-and-cheek considering the super hyperbolic claim of the other poster, but let's not beat around the bush here; you and other posters were damn sure insinuating it.

So you don't have anything to back up your claims then.

Fact: Ted Kennedy killed a person.

Stop accentuating the negatives. I'm sure Teddy was a hell of a guy when he wasn't leaving women to die in watery graves.

Ted Kennedy Killed a girl, maybe even murdered her. Politics aside, hes goin to hell.

That or pretty much any daflyboys post. Take your pick. You'd be pretty thick not to pick up the extreme hostility or thinly-veiled agendas on here.

Fact: Ted Kennedy killed a person.

Which is something that has been repeated in about 75% of the posts in this thread.

People tend to get hostile over injustice. It's the American Way. Just ask Michael Vick and the 17 different interest groups that will be protesting him and each other tonight. I'm not thinly veiling anything and I don't think several others are either. I think it's pretty direct. We don't respect the guy and don't believe hommage should be paid. That doesn't make us unethical, immoral or evil.

If the split is 75/25 here, then, hmmm...... I wonder what that says?

Nothing more than opinions is what it says.

Care to elaborate on that?

Sure. They are opinions of a few people on a message board.

Nothing more, nothing less.

And the insinuation there is that the majority of the people don't feel the same way, and it's some minority bit on some random message board who feel like this.

Or it means the same people on either side express their opinions over and over.

I went back over the thread and the people that didn't say anything negative or just RIP were 15 people and the people that didn't have anything good to say about the senator totaled 12.

So, I don't know if those results really mean anything or not.

Re: Ted Kennedy Died

15? Really? That many?
