What this website needs is a "Berate the Dead Thread" so eveyone who dies can be scrutinized & judged. I'm with AuntyM on this one, it is bad luck to speak ill of the dead, most of you mainlanders were brought up different than me..nope wouldn't go there for...well probably anything.

In any case, Ted Kennedy championed the American Citizen, he stood up against Corporate America & it is too bad he is gone cause most don't have the courage or fortitude he had & doubt that anyone will ever be able to replace him. Long time service to America..he did more than most in congress can even hope to do.
