Judged.
If you had watched the memorial service yesterday, you would have seen a large number of REPUBLICANS there, including your idolized GWB and John McCain.

Yes, as a human being he was flawed. And you may not agree with his politics, but at least he showed up and stood for something. I've never heard a scandal about him taking bribes, and he was generally well regarded by his colleagues. He was obviously well loved by his family, and by his friends. He was a man of faith.
And his second wife is generally credited with turning his life around as far as his drinking.

I guess you can't imagine the pressure that his family put on him to excel, in the wake of 3 legendary brothers. I'm not a Kennedy idolizer. A lot of people are wild in their younger years, yet go on to do good in their adulthood.

I hardly think you can compare him to OJ Simpson, who did nothing in his life but play football and kill the mother of his children. And he has continued to prove he is nothing more than a thug.
