Whenever I see images of Caroline and John John, especially when they were children, I get so moved. They seemed so sweet and unscathed by the horrors that they, at a young age, were exposed to. When seeing this, I get the same feeling in what was a lovely tribute to her uncle. I hope she has found happiness and peace in her life after the passing of her whole immediate family. My heart goes out to her!
Also, whoever said that Ted got this just through Joseph Sr...You are completely wrong there. Ted's father died in 1969. Ted worked hard to get where he was. If it was just his father who did all the work...How did Ted stay in the senate for 40+ years? Jesus Christ. I mean, JFK did have a lot support thanks to his father...But in the end, it was JFK who got himself to the Presidency. I do agree though that Ted's first term in the senate was probably through JFK and Joseph P. Kennedy Sr., but th
Hey Kong, go take your shit somewhere else. It would make sense for her opponent to run fake things like that in the paper. Politics is a real rough game.
Show some respect will ya? She lost her father at the age of 6, her mother, her brother, Robert, numerous aunts, grandparents, Michael, and now Ted. To sum it up...She's lost a lot. Don't be a prick. Please take your worthless baseless crap somewhere else. I don't know if it's true or not. But I don't give a rats ass about it.
She can get porked by anyone she likes I guess. The issue was about political corruption. At the time she was running the guy that was porking her was running all kind of articles about her in the New York Times. Now if he came out and said something like she gives great blows jobs I might have said that was OK as he probable has some info on that
@KongSunWu Caroline was not great impromptu speaker and cut out for the brutal political world. This is all new to me. I thought she wasn't appointed cause Gov't Patterson was thinking of running for Governor himself himself at that time. He asked Al D'Amato who to pick and D'Amato recommended Kirsten Gillibrand who was the daughter of politically connected family upstate. She was supposed to help him when he ran. Rather than openly admit that Patterson's people spread these rumors. No?
Please do a search on the internet. You will find many papers covered this issue including the NY Times. Which was surprising as she was apparently having an affair with one of the New York Times editors
Yeah this guy did a really good job taking care of the state... that's why the state decided to vote a senator from the opposite party? Hmm something's not right here...
Jackie and JFK(for the time he was present) did a good job raising their children. Jackie taught her daughter how to be sophisticated and to have a bit of humility.
I think what I like best about Caroline Kennedy is that she's rich, very, very, very, VERY, rich, however, she doesn't flaunt it. I was surprised to read she at times takes the subway. That's amazing! I love people like that! :)
My grandfathers and grandmothers, my great even great great uncles and aunts and my parents did the same for me.. we'd sit around a "smudge pot" to keep the bugs off, in Sullivan Cty, NY. I am so grateful for what I learned.
odd in the land of the free and home of the brave, a nation that states it loves jesus and his teachings, would not provide health care for the poor... and jesus said something about what you do to the poor you do to him... glad i'm not an american... in fact, i'll get down on my knees tonight and thank god i was not born a yank.
This lady was born with 18 silver spoons in her mouth. She is lucky and very ric. Caroline enjoy your wealth,and you seem much brighter than your brother. Bless His Soul
Life is to good to cry over many god given gifts...Motel six and we will leave the lights on..The Promise land is real not fake. Did Uncle sam make u cry.
Caroline shows the courage of the Kennedy family, she is a tribute to her Mother. She has been through so much in her lifetime. Please do not send me ANY anti-Kennedy scarcasm.
Yea I agree the kennedy family has been through so much tragedy and loss and they still survive good bless them. and to all who post rude things about them go to hell good bless the kennedys.
Caroline should've been the junior senator from New York. With God's grace and a bit of brains on the part of New York voters, she WILL be one day. Fantastic speech.
Caroline is a sensitive, intelligent, caring, capable woman who has seen her father assassinated, her mother die way too young, her uncle gunned down, her brother killed under mysterious circumstances. And then, , the media went after her for daring to want to serve her country as a senator. . By the way, Ted was working for health care for us all. He might not have needed to go to Canada for treatment, but a lot of the rest of us would be lucky if we could. Well done, Caroline.

I hope she feels more pain in the future. That sick family deserves it all. Lets hope his last hours were painful like Mary Joe's were. The Kennedy Curse lives and I love it. This family is garbage.
He saw in Columbia Point and Mound Bayou a model for the nation and introduced an amendment to the Economic Opportunity Act that set aside $51 million to get another 30 centers started around the country. Today, as a direct result of Sen. Kennedys vision as a 34-year-old, first-term senator, 20 million low-income Americans receive access to quality primary care at 1,200 community health centers across all 50 states and U.S. territories.
why politicians don't retire and live off medicare and social security after the reach 70 year old? It make more sense for them to suffer like everyone of us by the way they passed the bill. Taxing us on social security, and medicare. Later after you retire and try to use public health care just to be denied because responsible people saving too money for retirement. Why do they tax us and giving the public service to people who cheats and lies?
Oh, Sweet Caroline, your Daddy would have been so proud of his darling "Buttons." This was a beautiful tribute to your Uncle Teddy. You struggled at times to speak through your sadness, but you carried on -- just as your Uncle Teddy had done for so many years. Your mother did a great job with you and John, and she, too, would have been so proud of you. Thank you from someone who has admired your family since I was 10 years old and you were 2 years old. We know you will continue to serve us all.

So Thurston Howell III Kennedy died.
From what I understand he never held a job that wasn't tax payer funded. I also hear he was very generous with other peoples money and fought hard to use taxpayer money for causes he believed in.
Google Ted Kennedy Charities. Very spare, but it seems he consistently donated less than 1% of his income to charities.
How typically liberal - very charitable with other people's money
That's what taxes are for. Making the country better. I think that paying taxes is a privilege for getting to live in America. Freeloading Republicans and Libertarians want to live in this country and contribute nothing, only line their wallets - especially Wall Street, when tax payer money was needed to bail them out for their greedy mistakes. A lot of Republicans that are much more wealthy than the Kennedy's contribute nothing to the society of America.

Yea, Ted understood the poor why he lived in his Number of MILLION Dollar homes. Come On! Dems. say they are for the poor from the start of their party yet we still have POOR people today....Very Telling.
It is a very easy answer - GO GET A JOB LIKE THE REST OF US DO!! Guess what? If you work as many hours as some wealthy do, it may work out that you
may also be rewarded. No matter what job any one of us have, we should do it for ourselves so that we may wake up the next day feeling very proud of ourselves.
Ted was the greatest American senator that ever lived. I hope someday Caroline picks up the torch to help those people who don't have a voice like the handicapped, the poor, and the children. May Senator Kennedy rest in peace and may his legacy be a symbol of what greatness really is.

I believe the people your talking about have their own voices. Ironicly they are victims to people like Al sharpton, Jesse Jackson, and Ted kennedy. Who do you think voted him in office? The mental and physical handicapped, the poor and the next welfare generation.
What do you think Chavez did to get into office? That doesn't make him a "great" man for doing it.
Being PRODUCTIVE to this country is far different from giving candy to a select group of voters to get re-elected.
Not "your" talking..."you're" talking; a contraction of you and are. Your lack of education about our language and the subject of Ted Kennedy and his value to our country is as deep and dark as an abyss. I doubt you ever take an opportunity to learn anything at all. This makes you worthless to society. Yet all the while, you benefit from what this man has done. Thankfully he didn't need the likes of you to get it done.
I guess people on Medicare should die since they aren't productive anymore but stealing the healthcare dollars from everyone else who are productive?! The next time you're sick in bed or can't work because of a broken leg please commit suicide it would help our country immensely.
Not being productive because your incapable vs being dumb and lazy are night and day in this debate. Obviously I wouldn't discredit a person with a broken leg for not getting off his ass and working. You cannot deny that there are tens of millions of people on welfare who can infact get off their asses. I chose to refer to them as non-productive people since If I label them in any more detailed fashion I often get called a racist.
Clinton signed the Personal Responsibility and Work Opportunity Reconciliation Act, conservatives celebrated and liberals screamed; three administration officials quit their jobs in protest. The act ended a 60-year-old federal guarantee of cash aid for the poor.
Now stating that. Do you want to discuss the 700 billion dollar bailout of Wall St.?
oh yes. The Kennedy's, the ones who abolished slavery, freedoms of rights, decline of crime, and justice for his slain brothers. Better leader than anyone else your country has seen you twat. Learn about the Kennedy's cocksucker.
How sad for our country - not only the loss of Teddy Kennedy, but the level of hate, ignorance and polarity which seem to prevail in our society as evidenced by too many comments here. I was a child when we lost John, a teenager when we lost Robert and, well, you can do the math. Love to all, wherever you are in this journey called life.
I am only 19 years old and you'd think I shouldn't even know who Bobby was and what he stood for but after reading your comment I couldn't shake off the feeling of this profouond sadness that grabbed me. I loved the part about the ignorance. So sad but yet true. You should consider yourself lucky enough to have been alive during that period of time. I could not have found better words to describe this so-called level of hate seeing as most of this people didn't even know THEM..

Exactly, he was Anti-abortion until post Rove vs. Wade when the abortion split the parties, and he became pro-abortion. What a sell out and loser in life he was. I'm sure millions of people could have done a better job had they been born into a powerful name like the kennedys and given a chance like Ted.
The same people who think he was a legacy, also feel the same about the queen for given away money that wasn't hers to charity and taking all the credit.
Bastard done everything he could to take away our rights as American's. For that I will one day piss on his grave. Politicians like him should be tried for treason.
@deathtodiversity2 - you are an evil force in a great nation. Please leave.
I was very moved by the bi-partisan tribute (Orrin Hatch and John McCain as well as VP Biden) to a great public servant. This spirit is what our country was based on. We need to return to the respectful debate and reject the hateful vitriol that we have experienced in recent past.
There are many people who love this country. We need to respect and listen to, even if we don't agree with all of them.

REPUBLICANS want to DENY YOUR FREEDOM OF CHOICE to switch to a GUARANTEED & AFFORDABLE PUBLIC OPTION.
FIGHT FOR YOUR RIGHT OF FREEDOM OF CHOICE !!

How sad for our country - not only the loss of Teddy Kennedy, but the level of hate, ignorance and polarity which seem to prevail in our society as evidenced by too many comments here. I was a child when we lost John, a teenager when we lost Robert and, well, you can do the math. Love to all, wherever you are in this journey called life.

I am only 19 years old and you'd think I shouldn't even know who Bobby was and what he stood for but after reading your comment I couldn't shake off the feeling of this profouond sadness that grabbed me. I loved the part about the ignorance. So sad but yet true. You should consider yourself lucky enough to have been alive during that period of time. I could not have found better words to describe this so-called level of hate seeing as most of this people didn't even know THEM..

It's easy to spew hate at the funeral of someone who was literally destroying this country from the inside out.
We have a burdon lifted. This man fought for everything that was wrong for this country. I could care less about what's best for Canada and Mexico, it's OUR future that matters, not the illegals getting better treatment than ourselves.
Teddy was quite possibly the worst senator.

"This man fought for everything that was wrong for this country."
It's odd that you would say that, being that he fought for economic justice, social justice, and equal rights.
I guess you find it easy to spew hate at those things, too.

Economic justice? For Bank CEOs that lobbied for his party
Social Justic? FFS Tell me why we need social justice ?
Equal Rights? I suppose BET equals Better Equal Television?
You've got is bass ackwards on Teddy's true agenda.

That was in response to sweetfatman. And for the record I think this man was THE worse senator in the 233 years of America.
Who was the second worse? Sen. John McCain who also happened to be Ted's boyfriend.

Senator kennedy has distorted the concept of what it means to be a Catholic in public life more than anyone else in leadership today.

Exactly, he was Anti-abortion until post Rove vs. Wade when the abortion split the parties, and he became pro-abortion. What a sell out and loser in life he was. I'm sure millions of people could have done a better job had they been born into a powerful name like the kennedys and given a chance like Ted.
The same people who think he was a legacy, also feel the same about the queen for given away money that wasn't hers to charity and taking all the credit.

@deathtodiversity2 - you are an evil force in a great nation. Please leave.
I was very moved by the bi-partisan tribute (Orrin Hatch and John McCain as well as VP Biden) to a great public servant. This spirit is what our country was based on. We need to return to the respectful debate and reject the hateful vitriol that we have experienced in recent past.
There are many people who love this country. We need to respect and listen to, even if we don't agree with all of them.
