I didn't hear Kennedy, but thanks for posting his talk.

The town hall meetings and/or the so-called tea parties, with professionally-made signs, are all fragil-minded people need to send them over the edge. The hatred for Pres Obama has NOTHING to do with his policies - he's black and he's a Dem, and that's all they need to know.
Lou Dobbs, the clowns on FOX, and hate radio clowns are playing with fire.

When was the last time in history that someone showed up to a meeting where the president of the US was going to speak with a gun?
When was the last time in history that a Congressman felt he could get away with yelling out "liar" WHILE THE PRESIDENT WAS SPEAKING to a joint session of Congress?

This bit says it all ..

" “They had mass-produced signs, ‘Bury ObamaCare with Kennedy,’” he said after the AARP event. “It wasn’t just an individual who was over the edge in their ideology and vitriol. This stuff was mass-produced and mass-distributed and mass-funded. When you put that together with folks around the country calling in very destructive ways for other things about Obama, and connotations of my family name, it’s not a real stretch as to what the message is here.”

The signs in question were created and distributed by the American Life League, a Virginia-based Catholic antiabortion organization, according to President Judie Brown, who was reached by phone Saturday. She dismissed Kennedy’s assertion that such opposition may incite violence.

“There’s absolutely nothing violent about the sign,” Brown said, noting that her group distributed 10,000 at a rally earlier this month on the national Mall; she could not immediately say how much they cost.

“I believe it was extremely insensitive for his father to have advocated the death of millions of babies,” Brown said, referring to the elder Kennedy’s support for abortion programs. “I don’t think what we did was insensitive.”"

I wonder what signs would have to say, before Brown would accept that they could provoke violence by anyone.
