I'm gonna miss Uncle Ted like nobody's business!<br /><br />So many "red state Americans" who regarded him with suspicion if not outright hatred, will probably never even realize how much they owe Senator Kennedy. It's kind of sad that a lot of the people Kennedy worked the hardest for despised him with a passion born of decades of anti-Kennedy propaganda. Nothing was handier for a Republican running in a conservative district than the image of Bogeyman Ted in a campaign ad. It usually worked.<br /><br />TEDDY KENNEDY'S GONNA GET'CHA IF YA DON'T WATCH OUT!<br /><br />I wonder how these people would react if tomorrow - just for a day, mind you - every law Teddy Kennedy is responsible for were made null and void. Call it a hunch but I have a strong feeling that more people than you might suspect are going to miss him now that he's gone.<br /><br />Teddy, they hardly knew ye!<br /><br />I'll miss Teddy. His impact on the country he loved so much will be felt for generations. The loss his passing means to progressive politics in the United States is incalculable. We need him at this moment in history more than we ever needed him before. It's so unspeakably sad. He's gone and he's not coming back. Now he belongs to the ages.<br /><br />In the good old Irish Catholic tradition, tonight I'll be drinking a toast or two (or twelve) to you, Ted. Sleep well and thanks.<br /><br />http://www.tomdegan.blogspot.com<br /><br />Tom Degan<br />Goshen, NYTom Deganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17911175264811957550noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1735381172489266727.post-76010816102815104842009-09-02T14:31:15.415-07:002009-09-02T14:31:15.415-07:00I concur with your sentiments Commander.I concur with your sentiments Commander.RobnTeegsMomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07807767141375666897noreply@blogger.com
