That being said, there will be a time in the not-too-distant future when Ted Kennedy passes from the scene. Brace yourself for an avalanche of encomiums from the MSM and other left-wing organizations.

I hope that someone has the courage to enumerate how this one man, in his lengthy career, has so damaged the fabric and civility of this nation.

I still wonder if his objectives represent naked partisanship or whether they are just an expression of the mindless liberalism that has always been his hallmark. Maybe both.

Jimmy Carter inflicted a lot of damage upon us in the 4 years of his presidency, and we are still cleaning up his mess.

Ted Kennedy, by contrast, will have had 50 years to do his dirty work. Will the nation survive long enough to fix his colossal mistakes?

Billions of dollars wasted. Millions of tons of bus exhaust put in the atmosphere. And for what? Some imagined benefit gained from sitting near a kid with more skin pigment?

This was such a bad idea, that Ted Kennedy must have surely been involved.

I agree that it will likely be 5-4 rejecting the race assignment plans. But why would you be shocked if it was someone besides Roberts writing for the majority, instead of say Scalia or Thomas?
