They say Ted Kennedy was the most influential Senator ever, so is he to blame for the mess the country is in?

While Kennedy was a drunken hack, don't for one minute expect Liberals to condone anything bad being said about him, no matter how truthful. The Demolemmings, cannot see any bad in their politicians, nor can they see any good in Republicans/Conservatives. That's why they won't admit that the Republicns, not the Democrats, were the ones responsible for the enactment of the Civil Rights bill of the 60's, among many other things.

All valid points ! However ; don`t forget the Liberal Socialist Mantra " DO AS I , SAY NOT AS I DO " ? Is no one curious about the fact that the Liberal Democrats have been bad mouthing our American Health care system for the last decade or longer ? I`m sure you can pull up countless You Tube videos of every democrat in Congress and see and hear them pummel the USA Health care system , and boasting that our Health care system isn`t as good as other countries "Socialized Health care System" , not even as good as Cuba`s as that liberal deranged lunatic Michael Moore tried to portray , along with the rest of the liberal socialist bias` media as they ran special`s about it ! So after all the raping of our health care system by the liberals` , why didn`t they condemn Kennedy for not going to that haven of superior Health care called Cuba ? Why didn`t Kennedy refuse to be treated by the very doctors` he has blatantly degraded ? Why didn`t the liberals` stand up for their so called "principles" of " there`s better health in other countries ". ya` know why ? Because when the scalpel hit`s the surgeons hand , even the Liberal condemners of America`s Health care system want to see an American flag patch on the doctors lapel , and they dam sure want to have their rights read to them in ENGLISH !!!! Thus ; Liberals prove to themselves that they themselves don`t believe in what they tell the public to believe , consequently proving to themselves they are liars to the max !

i guess the G-O-P control of both house had nothing to do with it right? when the G-O-P had all the power,they(the G-O-P) tried to get rid of the filler buster(i'm sure you don't remember this) the only weapon the Dem's had in those dark days of the country. when your party lost power what they do.....use the filler buster.... theirs a word for that....it's called hypocrisy......but i know when your blind with partisanship(like your self) you can see things like that..... but if you read this..i give you a gift of Truth

9-11 HAPPEN ON G-O-P WATCH...then they went to fight in the wrong place to make mad tax payers money......

Nice try but we're sticking with the true culprits Geo. W. Bush and Ronald Raygun.

He definitely was influential. He had 47 years in DC to spread his liberal disease.

He sure has had his hand in it, and I'm talking more than interns.

his civil rights movement has cost many lives
