Dear Mona Charen, Thanks for writing this article about Ted Kennedy. The TV news sure put all politicians in limelight for this 'ROYALTY FUNERAL!' Taxpayers don't feel he was any kind of Royalty, therefore, why would they spend Taxpayers money to "ride and fly" for miles, costing millions America doesn't have? Sometimes I think this is how they 'push things under the rugs' hoping 'real' hard-working Taxpayers won't notice what they're really doing, don't you? As for the bills, etc. the Kennedy bunch 'placed into action' were all about 'bankrupting America', more power and money for them, AND, if you noticed -THEY NEVER USED THEIR MONEY, DID THEY?

As for any President or other politicians living on the same levels as Taxpayers, having same Doctors, healthcare, retirements, we all know this 'ain't gonna happen'! It's time to give them their pink slips and put them ALL on NOTICE THAT THEIR SALARIES AND RETIREMENTS will be $12,000.00, forever (if they still want a royal, padded, chair to sit in), because the lies, crimes, and deceit they've committed to the American people, 'NAFTA & CAFTA, ALONE, should be enough to put them all in jail, with no trial, no special attention, no anything, 'THEY'VE PASSED GO, NOW 'GO TO JAIL!' Taxpayers would really like to see them all put onto a shabby boat (like the ones our ancestors came over on-with only the clothes on their backs), and shipped to GITMO (or any other foreign country that will accept these crooks) after all their assets are taken to pay off the trillions they've borrowed without Taxpayers' consent, so America can be 'THE WAY IT USED TO BE - BEFORE KENNEDYS, PELOSI, RANGEL, REID, FRANK AND THE REST OF THE 'BLOOD-SUCKING TICS'!
Obama nor any other politician will ever answer a question, as their 'STAFF OF 100+ ISN'T THERE TO HELP THEM WITH THEIR WORDING AND THEY CAN'T SPEAK?' Taxpayers wonder why they have all these 'staffers/workers/and anyone else sitting around in a nice, plush office, ripping the Taxpayers off ???????
All the politicians and their statements "I'll look into that - and get back to you!" I wonder if God will make sure they burn in hell for what they've done to America?
