DNC Post- Ted Kennedy

Ok. I get that Teddy Kennedy has spent a lot of years in the senate representing his home state. I also respect his families concern over his brain tumor. But I have never been able to get over the fact that he murdered Mary Jo Kopechne's parents daughter and then covered it up with his connections. I believe that many parents would not have accepted his populist message when faced with him committing that tragedy upon their family.

He mentioned in his convention speech that Obama will not engage US armed forces in a war that is wrong. I am sorry on this one. JFK started Vietnam. Pure and simple. I don't believe he was wrong but most Democrats do. And they were responsible for escalating it(LBJ). They only turned against it when Nixon tried to end it.

History doesn't impact liberals like the rest of us.
