Know you guys love this stuff:

What the American people have seen is this incredible disparity in which those people who had cars and money got out and those people who were impoverished drowned."

-- Senator Ted Kennedy, on Hurricane Katrina


"Ditto!"

-- Mary Jo Kopechne

LOL!

...and unlike so many ironic comments posted here, this one is an accurate quote. Doesn't this guy have a freaking conscience?

I think you are correct.

I could not find the ad before National Lampoon as a key word.

It kinda burns me up that Teddy never was bought to justice over this, but there is more. How about his young cousin who raped not just one but two girls and got away scot free? Just because your last name is Kennedy you can do anything you wish and go free?

Justice is not always fair in this country. A look at the child molestor Michael Jackson and murderer OJ Simpson bears this out. God will take care of this and in the end you cannot pay for nor run from His justice.

And for the other side..

This year, both Groundhog Day and the State of the Union Address fell on the same day. As Air America Radio pointed out: "It is an ironic juxtaposition. One involves a meaningless ritual in which we look to a creature of little intelligence for prognostication, and the other involves a groundhog."
