I am sure that countless news reports and blogs will provide a full account of the failings of Senator Kennedy. And I am sure they will also tell of his success as the consumate Washington insider. I will simply wish the best for his family. The death of a loved one is never easy. My prayer for them is that they will find comfort, joy, and peace in their memories.
Senator Kennedy, concern is not saying the right about a subject. Concern is doing the right thing. You say you believe “it is vital” the people of Massachusetts “have two voices” representing them in the Senate. Well, where has your concern been for part of 2008 and 9 months into 2009? Do they only deserve two Senators when it is politically convenient for you and your party? This is not leadership and, as a former constituent of yours, I am not surprised.
“Open mockery” is just a symptom of how cheapened the discourse in America has become. Facts and reasoned argument are replaced with name-calling, jokes, and crude depictions of our political leaders. Like them or not I think they deserve better. I think America deserves better.
