Dude, May the peace finally take your heart and let you rest. Maybe you don’t see, but you’ve become
exactly what you accuse your enemies of.

Make peace, Spread peace. Thats all one can do.

Peace

I miss manly-men, frankly.

I did many things in my younger days which I regret. I drank, disrespected friends, and acted as if this world was put here to be my plaything. I smashed up cars by the gross, and even put my girlfriend under water in the Kensico Reservoir, the car was a convertible, and we (being 17) swam to safety… both drunk, both thinking the sinking of my fathers new Buick a large joke.

I had less reason, fewer tragedies, then Ted Kennedy. As for Mary Jo Kopechne, If her parents can forgive Teddy, I guess I can. They did so during his 1980 run for the presidency.

As for Robert Byrd, I agree. Hate is different than drunken stupidity. BUT I sincerely wish my Senators would do for rural Maine what he did for West Virginia… isn’t that what we pay them for?

In any case, even though I often disagreed with his positions, I feel bad for Ted and more so for his family.  Oh, BTW I did feel bad for Ronald Reagan It is a shame that Nancy was never able to get the Bush administration to accept stem-cell research. I even felt bad for George Wallace when his wife died, and he was shot. .. and I hated him.

Bless you, Senator Byrd. You have spoken for so many of us.

Joseph P. Kennedy was killed when his Liberator bomber exploded, over England, during WW II in 1944
My mother remembers the incident well.

Jack Kennedy was shot in Dallas November 22, 1963. The world, a much different world, stood horrified.
They released us from school, The Principal came into the classroom and said; “They’ve shot the president, go home.” I remember walking toward Grand Central. some people on the streets were crying, Bus drivers pulled their busses to the side of the road so they could wipe their eyes.  The Time’s Square Shuttle didn’t move because the motorman ... and old black gentleman.. was sobbing next to the train.

Robert Kennedy was shot in the Kitchen of the Old Ambassador Hotel in Los Angeles following a victory speech on June 5, 1968.
I changed my political affiliation to Republican, but failed… for the only time in my life… to vote in the fall. Following Robert Kennedy’s assassination, Jackie Onassis declared “I hate this evil evil Nation.”

76 is very old for a Kennedy of Ted’s generation. It’s been a tough and sad life and therefore he must be very strong…

“It’s not over, till it’s over.”
