beautiful vid

his shirt says it all

thank you

[alcwt2012]

Everytime Ted Kennedy was smiling, it was time to hide your wallet. I'm with you fenderozzman.

[chewbaca1989]

Demagogue's all of them, liars and usurpers of the Constitution.

Term limits, the man should have had a real life and not been at the Governments teet all his life.

[alcwt2012]

He was the poster boy why this country needs term limits. From Chappaquidick and how he slimed Robert Bork was despicable. From immigration and health care, to what we have now. We have a congress that congratulates each other for utter failure. They have bankrupted a country, ran every entitlement program into the ground, and have the nerve to claim accomplished legislation, are you kidding me? Do they not know they are the worst congress in the history of this country? They have no shame!

[lthom33]

FYI what we have now is the effects from 8yrs of the Bush administration. No regulation in the private financial sector, 2 wars (we've borrowed $300M per day from China for Iraq), no checks and balances, a Republican controlled congress who he never said "no" to, 2 tax breaks for the 1% wealthy who then took the money & shipped American jobs overseas, a healthcare system run by pharmisuiticals, etc. Bush bankrupted the country. Regardless of what you think Ted fought for us, the disabled &women

[alcwt2012]

Quit the dem's talking points you mind-numb drone. I won't defend Bush because he spent too much money, but Obama is Bush on Steroids. The Housing market caused this collapse because of the Dem congress who's cronies controlled Fannie and Freddy. Newsflash, big pharma supports and will be running ads for Obama care, we have more borrowing from China while they laugh in Geitner's face, and now we have less revenue going to the gov't. Obama is 2 triliion off his projection of the deficit, dumbass

[lthom33]

Hey alcwt2012 can't handle facts? Oh that's right -you folks can't be convinced with facts. Republicans controlled Congress from '94 through '07 and it was Phil Gramm (R) who wrote the deregulation Bill which had no rules and regulations -that and credit swapping caused the mess we're in. (which =8 yrs of Bush) Bush raised the national debt $5 trillion and turned a $500 billion surplus into a $1.7 Trillion deficit. There' not enough trees in Oregon to print the money Bush shit away.

[alcwt2012]

Hey stupid ass, their were more regulations on the books under Bush than under Clinton. And your numbers are so off, Bush never broke the trillion mark, this is Obama's debt stupid. Obama has already print more money than every president before him. Why are liberals like you so economically stupid. I am not here to defend Bush, he spent money and printed money out of control, but your going to wear Lewinsky autograph knee-pads for your boy Obama. Your facts are wrong and your pathetic!

[lthom33]

You make a statement like that and call me a stupid ass? Gramm' Bill was passed late '99 -Bush came into office 1/2000. The recession began in December 2007 and Obama came into office on Jan. 21, 2009. Figure out the numbers and who was in office Jughead.

[alcwt2012]

Who cares about the Gramm bill, it wasn't the deregualtion bill that caused the housing crisis. It was the refusal of regualtion of Fannie and Freddie by the Dem congress giving loans to people who couldn't afford them and forced the banks to give them. The recession didn't start until the 2nd quarter of 2008 thanks to Bush and a lib congress. Now you have a president who is surpassing every president before him put together, and your going to defend him, mind-numb drone. The economic stupid!

[lthom33]

WTF??!! Gramm' bill in fact reversed Roosevelt' & caused our financial collapse. Greenspan helped by placing no regulations and rules. You're not informed. The mess we're in today is the direct incompetent decisions of George Bush. Republicans do this to us every damn time they're in office. They makes colossal messes but have no clue how to fix them -enter a Democrat. The recession started in 12/07 just like I stated and it took those 7 yrs of wasteful spending under Bush that caused it.

[alcwt2012]

Dude, gets some facts, you can't even specify any of the regulations if you tried because it was not the reason, read some economic books. You keep going on Bush like I'm his biggest defender, which I am not because he was not a fiscal conservative. But, I am smart enough to know he had help by a bunch of liberal dip shit policies that have been historical failures like the one's your boy Obama is doing right now. The New Deal with FDR prolonged the depression, it's the biggest myth in history.

[lthom33]

Phil Gramm (R) wrote the Gramm-Bliley bill that broadly deregulated the financial industry & now blamed by many economists for the epidemic of speculation & fraud that has shaken the global economy. Stimulating the economy is a good thing if it's not prolonged. During recessions people tend to save their money & not spend it which prevents the economy from working itself out of the recession. Specify your "liberal dip shit policies."

[alcwt2012]

Which economists? Which regulation? The only fraud was Fannie and Freddie ran by Dem cronies. Yeah both stimulus' are really working like the gov't intervention that really worked in the 30's. Stimulus, omnibus, cap and trade, and now single payer health care, dipshit policies. I agree Bush had many dip shit policies, and Iraq war is one of them. Unlike you I admit when my suppose side does stupid shit. I am a conservatarian, and I supported Ron Paul, and voted for Bob Barr.

[lthom33]

One was IMF who backed Obama's stimulus plan which by the way, I read today that it lifted the economy in the Washington Post! Great news right??!! This money is less than WS bailout & will be spent in 2 yrs. When Americans start spending again the unemployment will go down. I named the actual deregulation Bill for you to research. Gramm is a greedy incompetent parasite (Enron). We are finally progressing & Healthcare needs reformed. As for Bush all his policies failed.

[alcwt2012]

The IMF, the collection of statists and the Washington Compost comes out with a brilliant article that Obama's stimulus is less than the bailout is such a hack job. How are Americans going to consumer spend when they are not working? Gramm is an angel compared to Immelt at GE, Goldman Sachs, and all the lib cronies at Fannie and Freedie. Dude, get off of the blame Bush, the people are not buying into excuses, and the statist mantra, Obama's poll numbers show it, and the healthcare polls show it.

[lthom33]

The stimulus has lifted the economy -those are the facts as we know them but the unemployment has not picked up. Gramm is the one who said "Americans are a nation of whiners." This coming from the very person who wrote the deregulation bill & help collapse our economy & banking system. No way is Bush getting off the hook for destroying the country! Obama is trying to clean it up -Americans are aware of this!

[alcwt2012]

The stimulus has not lifted us out of shit, they can't even monitor it right now. Unemployment is going to stay when you have policies that are killing the private sector and making people more dependent on gov't. Obama has already printed more money in 7 months than Bush did in 8 years. Inflation is going to go through the roof, he is pushing policies we have no chance of paying for. Spending your way into prosperity is a historical failure, and you can keep playing the Bush card, BO <50%.

[lthom33]

It was the headline in the Washington Post but we all know your ilk doesn't read. We don't expect much from you besides embarrassment. Obama' tax scale is the same as Clinton' -nothing unreasonable or new, and the wealthy remain wealthy. Also only 2% of the poor do not work -there are the working poor who some need assistance. Obama has NOT printed money -that's a lie. There' not enough trees in Oregon to print the money we need that Bush wasted. Know your facts

[alcwt2012]

Dude, your ignorance is astounding! Of course the state-run media who wear lewinsky autographed kneepads for Obama like you are going to write good things about economy. The fact is all the states ran by liberals are suffering, and Obama's policies are destroying the private sector, and keep taxing the rich see where that gets you. Obama is printing more money at a staggering rate, and we are getting lectured by the Chi-coms how to run our economy. They are laughing in Geitner's face!

[lthom33]

Likewise - everyone is wrong but FOX according to you assholes. You wouldn't know facts if you stepped in them. All states are suffering because of failed Bush policies -get that straight. You Republicans conveniently forget it & attempt to get others to do the same. This is called a "selective memory." Excuse me but the "rich" need to pay their taxes like everyone else. They've had a free-ride for 8 yrs! AGAIN Obama has not printed any money!

[alcwt2012]

States are ran by state politicians. Different states have different taxes and regulations the one like Mi, NY, and CA suck right now because of high taxes ran by liberals and are sufferring not because of Bush, DipWAD! The top 1% pay 39%, top 25% pay 83%, and top 50% pay 96%, bottom 50% pay 4% asshole. Taking money from one person and giving it to another is socialism and theft, even by the gov't. Again stupid, Obama has printed money, look it up dipshit, You are the stupidest fucking idiot!

[lthom33]

watch?v=AOhtfgQ65Ak

Watch some real news & get educated about California. They wanted Arnold & they got him. Also your tax percentages are wrong. Bush gave the wealthy 2 tax cuts which they took while shipping jobs overseas. That's just criminal. The wealthy steal from the middle-class when a Rep' in office & that's okay. But when a Dem is in office & gives the middle-class a break it's then called "spreading the wealth." Obama has not printed money because it would cause inflation.

[alcwt2012]

All your ilk does is read lib bloggers and pass it off as logic. Bush 4.5% unemployment, BO 9.7%. enough said. Maybe if you read a business paper like WSJ or Barron's you might have credibilty. Housing and Banking destroyed by Community Reinvestment Act with social engineering polices by Dems, and Greenspan's policies killed the market. It wasn't tax cuts, it was gov't spending and interference that make things worse. Why don't you take an econ course, because you make a fool out of yourself!

[lthom33]

The unemployment numbers you see right now & the economy collapse is the DIRECT result of Bush. Your ignorance is annoying. Obama has been in office for 8 months & the recession hit in 12/07. Figure out the math, Einstein. Also it' obvious you know nothing about CRA which by the way has always done great. Tax cuts for the wealthy hurt the country because billions were not put into the economy. The reason we did so well under Clinton was in part due to taxation rules for all of us.

[BillionYears]

I leave it to God to judge Kennedy. No one can know what was in Ted Kennedy's heart at the moment of his death. If he asked for forgiveness for any wrong doing, he would be forgiven. On the other hand, he did terrible things in his life and if he didn't ask for forgiveness, then I would not want to be in his shoes.

[fenderozzman]

you fool

[BillionYears]

Ahhh, another u tube swamp thing with so much intellect that the best comment they can leave is a typical u tube swamp thing comment and that is to be: A name caller. Thank you for gracing us with your words of wisdom, I was hanging on every word.

[fbob107]

Not a great man in my book

[fenderozzman]

seriously

he is nothing more than a drunk, a womanizer, and a MURDERER. good riddance if you ask me,

[cals0502]

Ted Kennedy went into office and helped wreck a great country.

[lthom33]

Ted Kennedy will be greatly missed for his hard work in the Senate to help America be a better place for everyone. He worked on healthcare reform for many years, and I hope someone promised him that it would be passed before he died.

RIP

[fenderozzman]

rest in shit motherfucker

[BrettakaKatana]

@lthom33 to bad he didn't have the balls JFK had. oh and RFK

[lthom33]

@BrettakaKatana You've got to be kidding? Ted lived for years with death threats and continued to live a normal life. You don't think that's balls after 2 of your brothers were assassinated? He also has done wonderful things for MA, as well as women. He bucked up against Congress and many Senators to fight for what he believed was right- always the middle class, poor and specially challenged.

[BrettakaKatana]

@lthom33 oh my mistake i was trying to reference the second murdered brother wrong name lol but yeah i would have went straight to a gun store if that happened to my brothers.

[chewbaca1989]

JFF, and Robert, would be considered CONSERVATIVES by today's standards.

Of all the Kennedy's' that had a short demise it should have been Ted that ate the dust 1st.

[Tatonka322]

Ted Kennedy an extraordinary establishment goon that lived way too long for all of our own good!
