Town of Braintree

He comes from

the very low end of the gene pool.
He is a classic example of the Boston Poll.,same mold as Tip O'neil and dapper. Old boston backroom boys behind some bar in South Boston collecting payoff's from some ward healers. He was bounced from Harvard for cheating and finished up at U.Mass.

Clarence Thomas is alleged to have said: Being called unethical by Ted Kennedy is like being called slimy by a snail.

There isn't any reason why President Bush has to renounce a friendship with Ted Kennedy, just so long as he makes it clear to the American public that Mr. Kennedy is an utter ass when prescribing policy, and a distillery of meanness when he goes after a target, as with Robert Bork. There are those who frown on friendship across the aisle as if it were the subversion of a Manichaean divide ?— how can you be nice to Lucifer?

Well, Lucifer has his winning ways, which is of course why one must always beware of him. We angels have to keep our eyes on things. Semper paratus. Amen.

This image of liberal impotence, however, can be misleading. For as the 1990s begin, Ted Kennedy sits in the catbird seat on Capitol Hill. He will not be president, and seems to know that; instead, he has channeled his energy and ambition into the Senate, a small, clubby hive of barons that perfectly suits his talents. Now fifth in seniority in the upper chamber, he has built a kind of shadow government as chairman of the Labor and Human Resources Committee and head of Judiciary and Armed Services subcommittees. Through serendipity and political acumen, he is positioned to dominate the domestic agenda for the rest of this century as few legislators have in the 200-year history of Congress.

One of Kennedys first

Conformation knife jobs,
Robert Bork, in books such as The Tempting of America, argues that the Constitution should be interpreted based on the Framers' original understanding of the constitutional text. He is an advocate for judicial restraint, reiterating that it was the Court's task to adjudicate, not to legislate, from the bench. Robert Bork has written: ''We are increasingly governed not by law or elected representatives but by an unelected, unrepresentative, unaccountable committee of lawyers applying no will but their own.'' Bork's views have influenced the legal opinions of conservative judges such as Antonin Scalia and Chief Justice William Rehnquist.

Bork started in private practice in 1954 and then was a professor at Yale Law School from 1962 to 1975 and 1977 to 1981. At Yale, he was best known for writing The Antitrust Paradox, a book that argued that antitrust law should be interpreted to favor the interests of consumers, who often benefit from mergers. Bork's writings on antitrust law have had a profound influence on the Supreme Court's antitrust jurisprudence, as the Court has taken a markedly less activist approach to antitrust law since the 1970s.

Hypocrisy

>Alberto Gonzales
Mt. Gonzoles hasn't grasped the concpept of the geneva convention.

>Clarence Thomas
Clarence Thomas needs to hit the
law books more and spend less time
putting pubic hair on Coke cans.
Clarence Thomas should not be on
any bench, much less the Supreme Court.

As for Mr. Bush, Mr. Draft Dodger
and election stealer should be in jail.

BTW, George Bush is the real joke.

I Knew

There was at least one hard core liberal out there who would defend the antics of the Kennedy's especially good old Teddy. I once went down the same road that Teddy took Mary Jo. The road that he said he took a wrong turn on and didn't know he was off the main road. Well he took a turn from a paved road onto a rutted sandy road. Even I, dead drunk, could tell that I wasn't on the main road and I had never been on Martha's Vineyard before. Face it the man is a LIER and at the very least guilty of manslaughter. Besides being a coward. I could go on and on about the Kennedy's but why waste the time. They arn't worth it.
