When someone is a person of questionable integrity <br />and they have committed dubious acts in their past <br />many years of civil service to society and then they suddenly are befallen <br />with a fatal disease; (other than Liberalism….which is only a mental disorder) <br />why is it then that we always proceed to elevate <br />these immoral people to a higher level of respectability? <br />With no marginal reason ever given for their existence…. <br /> <br />In memory of Mary Jo Kopechne (July 26,1940 – July 18,1969) <br />Who was left by United States Senator Ted Kennedy to drown in his car <br />after he drove it off of a bridge and into the water below; while intoxicated after a party. Senator Kennedy was married at the time of the accident and did not report the accident until much later that morning. <br />Senator Kennedy has never to this day claimed any responsibility for his actions. <br />Senator Kennedy has been recently diagnosed with brain cancer, and that is tragic, <br />but it doesn’t change his questionable character. <br /> <br />2008 © TS<br /><br />Ted Sheridan<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-swimmer-named-kennedy/
