Me either !
Growing up as a kid in the 60s being Italian and more specific Sicilian, people stereotyped you or your family as being mafia or criminals when fact , most all are hard working, law abiding, religious, family oriented people.
Where did the Kennedy fortune come from ?
Joe Kennedy being a murderer and bootlegger (scotch) !
Gets his POS son elected press with his filthy money, makes his other son Bobby attorney general who goes prosecuting mafia members (hypocrits)
As for Teddy, I doubt Mary Joe Kopechne's family will shed any tears for him !

Granted, Teddy has given us good reasons to not like him.

But the fact of the matter is, he's spent pretty much his entire life passionately working for the American people.

Like or not like his politics, this is worthy of some respect.

Maybe 40 years from now we can hear this line...

Growing up as a kid in the 00s being Spanish and more specific Hispanic, people stereotyped you or your family as being lazy or Illegal when fact , most all are hard working, law abiding, religious, family oriented people.

Only people keeping Stereotypes alive are the ones who feel they've been stereotyped.

kind of a lame excuse to wish a guy dead.

+1 to that...

The only Sicilian friend I have is a pretty hard working guy, his only fault is how much time he spends around that pogyman...but that's another issue...

"Being a retard and hoping someone is dying is pretty damn high and mighty."

That's not very PC. I'm a little dissapointed that we have to hear trash like this. Someday Ted will be rolling over in his grave. ( and I wouldn't be to close when that happens)

High and mighty?
Being a retard and hoping someone is dying is pretty damn high and mighty.

I detect a rampant case of cranial rectal insertion.

Blah, blah, blah........he's a fat, drunken, lying, murderer. He couldn't get work bagging groceries at Stop and Shop, if not for Daddy's illegaly obtained fortune. But, you liberals would vote Mike Ducucca in again if he ran. Boohoo for Teddy Gin nose. What a buncha!

PLEASE PICK UP YOUR TRASH!
