Ted Kennedy – Dead at 77
Ted Kennedy
The death of Democratic icon Ted Kennedy gives meaning to the Change that was promised by Barack Obama. The Senator who died of brain cancer, has a 50 year legacy. His social welfare based liberalism earned him the moniker Lion of the Senate. Barack Obama has already has stated, “ An important chapter has come to our end. Our country has lost a great leader, who picked up the torch for his fallen brothers and became the greatest Senator of our time.”
This eulogy is refuted herein. There has been an overt Chemical Assault – Scorched Earth against the United States since June 17, 1987. So for over 22 years this Lion has not not fought let alone roared. The accurate record will state that if his prominence is truly measure Senator Kennedy is a symbol of impunity that endangered human life as well as the survival of the United States.
