Senator Kennedy's 77th Birthday Celebration at the Kennedy Center

Here's the end of "Some Enchanted Evening - A musical Birthday salute to Senator Edward M. Kennedy." I was invited as a 'Circles' level supporter of the Kennedy Center...and landed a killer seat only 11 rows from the stage (you'll see how close it is in the video - it pays to support the arts and great causes!).

Featured on stage, you'll see President Barack Obama, John Williams (conducting), Bill Cosby, Lauren Bacall, Denyce Graves, Phyllis Newman, Kelli OHara, Brian Stokes Mitchell, Bernadette Peters, Hal Prince, James Taylor, Frederica Von Stade, Colm Wilkinson, Lizz Wright, Karen Ziemba. Everyone performed something throughout the night. In the back of the concert hall - Senator McCain, Vice President Biden, Michelle Obama, Senator Kennedy, etc.

What a wonderful evening this was. Thanks to the Kennedy Center for putting it on!

(And hey - I took the video on a pocket digital camera, so I'm happy it turned out this well to post!) ;-)

Ted, we love you!

Get well and help our new President repair the damage done to this country (and spread to the world) over the last 8 years by a man who should now be in jail.

Ted Kennedy was a drunkin baffoon. He was the poster boy for nepotism. He got jobs and favors for family and freinds. Not to mention, getting away with murder. The best was when he got his nephew a burial at sea off a U.S. warship. A nephew that never served in any branch....A complete disgrace.

Sen. Kennedy, I pray that you get well too. One of the greatest senators in American history. I know that President John F. Kennedy & U. S. Senator Robert F. Kennedy, and John Jr. are looking down in heaven with a smile.

You're offensive to everyone, you're wrong, and you should remain silent like the video on your home page.
