Kennedy to be knighted

[Swimmer]

Time has a way of dulling our memories and lends itself towards one person forgiving another for something one person did. Whether it was to you or against another person, such as Ted against Mary Joe Kopechne, thier does come a time when your anger towards him should reach a balance for and against him, where you don't like or dislike Ted Kennedy. I think this should occur in everything even when a death is involved at some point. I believe even the Kopechne family forgave him at some point. After all no one forced Mary Joe to spend the weekend with a bunch of married hooligans. My point is that just recently I learned the Ted Kennedy called each of the spouses and or family members of all the 178 Massachusetts residents killed in the 911 travesty. The calls weren't scripted nor did the end after certain platitudes were made and condolences extended. They went on for minutes or in some cases a very long time. Kennedy instructed his entire staff to gather every agency possible in one place, so that all of these survivors didn't have to go to anyplace else other than the ballroom he rented to get whatever assitance anyone of them needed. Social Security people were there as well as medical professionals, and everyone in between. After reading this entire article about his efforts on the survivors behalf I finally let go of the Kopechne thing.
