I interrupt my Sturgis report with an event I've been looking forward to celebrating for years.
It was 40 years too late as far as I'm concerned, but Edward Moore Kennedy has finally been called to account for his crimes.
Like with Jacko, we must now endure several days of listening to fools praise the last patriarch of the most foul, corrupt and indecent "family" in the history of American politics. We will hear much ado about how he fought for the common man, civil rights, health care, blah, blah, blah, but...
...there will barely be any mention of Chappaquiddick, for the liberal press will surely wince at the idea of having to speak of it at all. I already saw a "look back at his legacy" on the news this morning. It was 99% wonderful "man of the people," and 1% killer. I'm sure many of you who read this may have to Google it, especially if you are a Massachusetts Democrat. Here in Moscow-on-the-Charles, a Kennedy could slit a woman's throat on the steps of the State House, live on television, and the sheep would still line up at the polls to check off the box next to the big "D." A homeless person or Level-3 sex offender could easily win a seat as a State Representative here if his name just happened to be Kennedy. I'm not exaggerating either - unfortunately.
He passed before finally realizing his "dream" of universal health care, and I couldn't be happier. Socialized medicine may be a great idea in theory, but like with most liberal ideology, it ignores how to pay for it. With most working people already seeing nearly 40% of their pay being withheld by the government and a deficit in the trillions, the last thing we need is higher taxes to provide free health care to all the drug addicts and illegal aliens out there. Since 1990, 70+ hospital ERs and trauma centers in California have been forced to close because by law they are mandated to treat anyone who comes in the door, regardless of their ability to pay. I betcha can't guess who the majority of those patients are, right? Right.
The Liberal Lion is gone. I prefer to remember him as a man who grew up on the beaches of Cape Cod, was renowned as an accomplished yachtsman, and left a young girl to die inside his car in a mere 10 feet of water. He waited 10 hours to report it (shocking - he wasn't drunk at all - nah!) and the authorities neatly covered it up and made it go away. Had you or I done that we'd have gone away until we were gray. Of course, the morally bankrupt voters of Massachusetts re-elected him to the Senate anyway, and I have endured his hypocrisy all my adult life. Thank goodness it is over.
There is finally justice for Mary Jo. She was somebody's daughter.
