Oh he was 'Great' alright, he would have had a 'Great' amount of inside knowledge about how the plans for the invasion of Cyprus by the Turks was progressing. (IMHO)

If the only people you consider great in their fields are the ones that have never worked against your own interests then you're right.

Hmmm... unexpected from DT.

Ted Kennedy was a philandering IRA supporting waste of space who ran off and left a young woman to drown trapped unconscious inside the car that he'd drunkenly driven off of a bridge and into a river.
He was an embarassment to his wife, family and political party as a younger man, as for his support of the IRA well that sums him up.

Ted Kennedy despite all of his faults, faught a neverending battle in the US Senate for universal health care, and sponsored numerous bills for worker's rights. "The Lion of the Senate", consistently voiced his opinion against the Turkish invasion of Cyprus. He fought for the embargo against Turkey in 74. In Senate hearings after the invasion his words resonate to this day, and whenever the issue of Cyprus comes up those words are reread to the Senate chamber to remind them that "The Lion of the Senate" is and was on the side of justice concerining Cyprus

I wonder if they'll play 'Bridge Over Troubled Water' at his funeral or whether hooded IRA will form a guard of honour and fire a volley into the air?

FS, you said it all! I am already sick of all the lauding of this rat-faced coward. I'm sorry he had this dreadful illness, I'm sorry for his family about his passing, but nothing he did canceled Chappaquiddick. And further, I've never understood the American adoration of Kennedys.

As a supporter of the IRA it all depends on who your heroes are and what villains you despise, as for the IRA as EOKA their struggle was just and heroic...the true villain in my opinion were/are the British in Cyprus and Northern Ireland

KEY PEOPLE IN NATIONAL SECURITY

Richard Morningstar, a former advisor to President Clinton on Caspian energy, was instrumental in pushing for the Baku-Tiblisi-Ceyhan oil pipeline. Strong candidate for the position of the National Security Advisor. He is Pro-Turkish and he is considered the key person who kept Cyprus, Greek and Armenian issues out of the Democratic platform.

Richard Holbrooke. After Sandy Burger was forced to quit, he is one of the favors for the position of the Secretary of State. He knows very well Cyprus and Greek American issues. He advised Kerry to wait until a later stage at the campaign, before he announces his positions on Cyprus.

William Perry. Former Secretary of Defense, and a supporter of a strong role for Turkey.

Joe Biden. One of the closest friends and associates of Kerry in the Senate and a candidate for Secretary of State. He is a philhellene.

Ted Kennedy. Kerry’s Guru and a philhellene and the last resort for the Greek Americans to see their positions to receive Kerry’s support.
