President Barack Obama said Wednesday that the nation lost "the greatest United States senator of our time" with the death of Ted Kennedy.
"For five decades, virtually every major piece of legislation to advance the civil rights, health and economic well-being of the American people bore his name and resulted from his efforts,"
There was more than one time I went to the polls and the only vote I cast was for Senator Kennedy. During the Vietnam War, and although he was vehemently opposed to it, he wrote, sponsored and push a law through the statehouse in Massachusetts that all tuition and fees are waved for veterans attending State College here.
It was never about him but his life was dedicated to helping those who needed someone to fight when the "system" was determined to keep them down. People like Teddy are the reason we do not have term limits for our Congress and Senate. If the voters of a state think their representative are shit, They will vote them out. It happened in 06 and 08. We are very capable of term limits at the voting booth.
God has determined that Teddy's work is done and now it's time for his reward. We can all be absolutely sure that there is a special place for Teddy in heaven.
The boys are home and we are all going to Boston tomorrow to pay our respects to the greatest human and American I have ever known.
Teddy was a politician's politician...a master of the art of compromise...a true man of the people...and like most of us, an outwardly imperfect human being. If all our politicians possessed his character and emulated his actions, we'd be much better off as a country. And my thoughts are those of an independent centrist, not a Democratic liberal! He will truly be missed.
ReplyDeleteTo be a adroit benign being is to have a make of openness to the in the seventh heaven, an ability to trusteeship aleatory things beyond your own pilot, that can take you to be shattered in uncommonly outermost circumstances for which you were not to blame. That says something remarkably outstanding about the fettle of the ethical autobiography: that it is based on a trust in the unpredictable and on a willingness to be exposed; it's based on being more like a shop than like a treasure, something fairly dainty, but whose very item handsomeness is inseparable from that fragility.
