If everything that Teddy Kennedy does is such poison to America
(according to freeptards, dildoheads, etc) . . .

Then, if Kennedy had a hand in "No Child Left Behind",

Why do Repukes love it? Because "Bush" pushed it????

1. Please do not listen to those ditto heads and freetards, they poison your
mind.

Teddy Kennedy may not be the best but he is a hero to the working class and the masses...

2. I have a freep relative...
who went on a tirade one day about how the Clinton Administration stuck us with the stupid so-and-so "No Child Left Behind" law, and how it was all a liberal conspiracy, yada yada, at which point I interrupted him with "excuse me, but you DO know that N.C.L.B. is a Bush initiative?"

At which point he insisted it was Clinton's doing, and nobody could convince him otherwise, yada yada.


Ah, ignorance is bliss!

3. Those types of ignorant responses
are the norm for republicans. Sometimes I wonder if they watch the news at all (even if it is FAUX).

14. Actually, it was Clinton's penis' fault
Clinton wanted the NCLB but Bush took office before he could propose it. Clinton pressured Bush to get NCLB passed intimidating him with his mighty Clenis. The Clenis prevailed once again, and the NCLB was passed.

4. Don't hang around with anybody who disses Ted Kennedy.
He's one of the big sluggers in our all-star line-up.

11. LOL! Well, we can part company on this one & still be pals.
Over many years in the Senate though, Kennedy has been a champion for a lot of people.

He stumbles on words on rare occasions for the smaller moments but when somebody's back is against the wall, I've seen him roar in like a dragon and deliver one impassioned emotional rescue after another.

16. Anything Kennedy is a Republican Head Exploder
and, if Kennedy was a major force in the NCLB legislation, then the fact that a freeptard would support it is a bright shining example of their total ignorance . . . another RHE is "Hillary Clinton voted for the war . . . so it must be terrible!"
