The Big Dig DID do a lot to straighten out Boston traffic - have you been there? Isn't that what congresspeople are SUPPOSED to do for their constituents? There were no kickbacks, and that's why he's not on the list. The people ON the list got personally comped for their targeted pork. See the difference?

If Kennedy were dirty, don't you think some of your right wingnut pals would have pinned something on him in 30 years? Kennedy doesn't NEED dirty money.

If you want to examine a (D) that clearly SHOWS the difference, look at Murtha. He's as dirty as any of the (R)'s, and he's on the list. There are just MANY more (R)'s than (D)'s.

Chris, > Exactly what has Ted Kennedy done?

Two words: Big Dig.

Not to mention that he brings an enormous amount of pork to his constituents. Even Republicans in his district will vote for him because of it.


You are blaming Kennedy for the Big Dig? The Big Dig is a good thing; what Boston corruption did with it is the bad thing. Its not Kennedy's fault.
