Hero? Really? Ted Kennedy is a 'hero'? I guess the bar for the 'hero' label has been lowered quite a bit.
I will not try to take away anything from the man's service to the people of Massachusetts, but I think calling him a 'hero' is stretching it quite a bit. I love it, Teddy not only gets a pass for Chappaquiddick but is labeled a 'hero', but Mike Vick doesn't even seem to deserve a second chance or the opportunity to try and makes things better for others. I'd be willing to bet the money Vick makes as an athlete pales in comparison to the money Teddy made as a politician. I would also be willing to bet that if the man who drove that car off the Dike Bridge had a different last name, the outcome would have been quite a bit different. Sadly, I would have expected a bit more insight from you Judah.
