To add to Roger’s well-done..ummm…eulogy…

Ted was a true Kennedy. He led the same dissipate, narcissistic, and amoral lifestyle as his Nazi-sympathizing father and mafioso grandfather, as well as all his brothers and many other descendants. heir to an ill-gained obscenely vast fortune, and never having worked a single day for one single honest dime his whole life, he made a career at perhaps assuaging his sullied conscience by adopting a contrived messianic complex and aggressively using political power to steal other people’s hard-earned money to fund a vast number of wasteful, corrupt, pork-laden, influence-peddling and state-empowering failed schemes and social-engineering plots to undermine traditional morality, constitutional law, and our cherished institutions.

RIP Ted.
