Why do Democrats rally around a murderer like Ted Kennedy?

I wouldn't care which party he represents. He is still a murderer.

And they would say the same about people who vote for democrats. A frivolous question.

and don't forget the man/boy sex relationshiops that is sitting in the wings.  They already have a large lobby group within the democratic party also.  \n\nOnce we say that gay is born that way, and we have to respect them because they are born that way,  then the pedophone or "child lover"  merely comes next since they are born that way, can't help theirself,  and can't be discriminated against either..\n\nAnd they will laugh at me today, I said this same thing in the early 70's about gays and everyone laughed and said no, no one would ever allow and accept gay marriage\n\nThe democrats at heart, which too many southern democrats just can't understand want to do away with anything religiouis and adapt a open society with no morality based on any religion ( esp Christian)

Well whats wrong with the north?They have a murderer in the Senate by the name of Ted Kennedy.Dont forget Mary Jo was pregnant when he let her drown.Guess he didnt want to do the honorable thing and marry her,she was good enough to have sex with but not good enough for the Kennedy stature?\n\nSo when one doesnt measure up to the Kennedy stature,or if one causes problems for the Kennedy's,they conviently die..,look at Marilyn Monroe.

Only 1 that I know of is in favor of that... Charlie Rangel from NY.  Why would you make such a generalization about the entire Democratic party based on what ONE member thinks?  I'm a Republican myself, but I have to come to the defense of the Democrats on this one.  The vast majority of Dems don't agree with Rangel's position and won't support it.\n\nSee... this is why you need to actually pay ATTENTION to the news and think for yourself, not just parrot what someone else is saying.

menifeedave..."queers and baby killers"???  so you are saying that all liberals and/or democrats are queers and baby killers, right?  i just need some conformation on your answer!

You must read your newspaper very closely, you are right.  The reason is because the republican agenda is to put their self-aggrandizement over the common good.  This isn't to say that democrats are righteous and sagacious, but they seem to be much less corrupt and full of bologna than the republicans (have you seen Hastert lately? he looks like Humpty Dumpty).

He should,but being a Kennedy and a liberal,he won't.The left wing media will even spin it until he becomes a victim.

because they're scared.  Their own party has tried to scare the pants out of people to get votes and they succeeded...for a while anway.  Until about a couple weeks ago when dems took control of the house and senate.  Next, the presidency!!  I'm conservative but I am also a dem.  In fact there are a lot of people like me who don't necessarily agree with republicans but aren't godless liberals like republicans say we are.

Oh Yes, I remember it well. Besides it makes perfect sense. How about those Democrats? Look at Al Sharpton, A guy who jump-started his own political ambitions -- and became filthy rich -- by helping to fake the rape of a child in a photo op with a raving lunatic using her own son's death for personal and political gain? Could anything better show what the Democrat party is all about?\nAfter all this, is the story of Air America, the collection of failed standup comedians who paid themselves their salaries by stealing money from needy children.\nIt is the story of Al Franken who calls anyone and everyone who disagrees with him a "lying liar" in a book so filled with lies that the only way he could avoid libel suits was to swear in a court of law that the book was just a collection of jokes.\nThis is the story of Ted Kennedy who drove off a bridge drunk and left his "female companion" to die a slow and horrible death while he spent hours sobering up and pow-wowing with his advisors on how best to keep his political ambitions alive.\nAnd it is the story of Dan Rather who forged documents and tried to sell a mentally disturbed Democrat party partisan with multiple direct contacts to the highest level of the Kerry campaign as "an unimpeachable source" in order to "scoop" the competition and get CBS out of the basement.\nIt is the story of Sandy Berger, the Democrats' top foreign policy advisor, who willingly put America at risk and undermined the 9/11 commission by cramming top secret documents down the front of his pants and into his socks.\nIt is the story of Michael Moore, the Al Sharpton of moviedom, who lie-filled, hate-filled, anti-American propaganda movies have made him rich at the expense of both the truth and his nation. (For these lies Moore received a standing ovation from the likes of San Francisco's Nancy Pelosi and a seat of "honor" at the Democrats' national convention next to the leftist who helped create the first Islamic terror state in Iran, Jimmy Carter.)\nIt is the story of Ward Churchill, the plagiarist and liar who parlayed his bufoonery into tenure and financial gain and the plagiarist and liar Joe Biden.\nIt is the party of Bill Clinton who, for the "pleasure" doing nasty on a twenty-one year old employee's dress, betrayed not only his country but his own wife, sending her out to be humiliated and laughed at with her ludicrous "vast rightwing conspiracy" claims and the party of Hillary Rodham Clinton who was found to have had tons of stolen FBI files in her bedroom.\nThis is the party of John Kerry who used a self-inflicted wound and an obscure loophole in military law to flee his duty in Vietnam only to then jumpstart his political ambitions by slandering his "band of brothers" who didn't.\nThis is the party of Robert "KKK" Byrd, a man who made his name and fortune as the Grand Dragon of the Ku Klux Klan and the party of the ACLU which works to force young Boy Scouts to go on long trips into the woods with only homosexuals as their guides.\nThis is the party of the AFL-CIO whose thugocracy steals the money of its hard working members and redirects it into the coffers of extremist Democrats.\nThis is the party of CNN who engaged in a decade long quid pro quo with Saddam Hussein trading the networks' promise to coverup Saddam's atrocities in exchange for personal and political favors.\nThis is the party of the trial lawyers who will say and do anything to get their clients off -- free to rape and murder again so long as they can double and triple bill and get a few minutes on TV.\nThis is the party that could not find a single person they believed better qualified to be the face of the Democrats than Howard "Yeee-ha" Dean, a mentally instable ranting lunatic who "hates Republicans" and demands that they be put in jail without even charges being filed (much less a tria

Because people that hate need a rallying figure

You liberals are CRAZY if you think that Kennedy is emulated by ANYONE in the modern Democrat party.  Kennedy was a TAX CUTTER and an American patriot - there is no modern day Democrat that would EVER even THINK about cutting a tax for anything let alone actually vote to cut a tax. To today's modern liberal - that would be giving up power to their stupid minions by giving them a say on how they spend their own money.\n\nNice try libs - but you guys will emulate America haters like Hanoi Jane and Cindy Sheehan before you will ever emulate a tax cutting patriot like JFK...at least until your party finishes imploding - then you guys will probably all kill yourselves...

Look how the Clinton staff acted when they moved out of the White House - trashed it, stole stuff, and took the W's off of the typewriters. During the last Presidential election in my state the donkeys slashed tires of Republican vans.  Those guys are in jail now.\n\nThe Democrats are immature and destructive from top - down.

Yes he is a known Democrat.  What he did is unexcusable.  This goes way back though.  The Republicans fought to free the slaves.  So then who had the slaves?  Democrats!

The Democratic National Committee removed a section of their platform explicit supporting the death penalty in 2004.  Thus, while not supporting it in an official sense, the national Democratic party does not oppose the death penalty.  However, many Democratic leaders such as John Kerry  oppose the death penalty, while President Clinton supported the death penalty.\n\nWisconsin has not had the death penalty in over 150 years, and the State Democratic Party of Wisconsin opposes it.

A very astute observation, and definitely a major problem for the Democratic party. I think that's why Hillary Clinton has been trying to present herself as more moderate. She's not.\n\nIf John Kennedy were alive today, I imagine he would be treated much like Joe Liberman.
