Ted Kennedy, Knight of the British Empire

[merle haggard]

I agree with you merle, although not entirely for the same reason, an Irish person should not take an honour from the british crown, but ted and the rest of the kennedys are american, so I dont care if they do or not.
By the way would ted be entitled to irish citizenship, was his father or grandfather not born in ireland

i couldnt really care less what the kennedys do either . But for clarification purposes i was responding to this post from a suspected gay

I'd accept a Knighthood.
People who think its affront to Irishness to accept it are like straight guys who are afraid to wear a pink shirt because they perceive it as a threat to their sexuality.....

Here is Ted today at the signing of the Obama Brigade Bill. I am thinking that that suit would fit me pretty good. If I keep my eyes open in the thrift shops down on the vineyard I could pick it up in a few weeks for 7 or 8 bucks

Further proof that some Irish people would still rather be British.

I find this forum so bizarre at times.
