This article raises some interesting questions.

" The crime of manslaughter would not stick to Ted Kennedy; perhaps the crime of conspiring with foreign leaders to influence a U.S. election will. It’s time to take Teddy Kennedy down, once and for all."

I'd not accuse him of being a traitor. I will, however, believe that he is an unconvicted murderer.

Nothing the scumm sucker does surprises me. He has gotten away with more crap than all the others combined. He's a drunk, liar and in my opinion a murderer. It would be nice if something were finially done to him, but I won't hold my breath for it. I do not have any doubts about the information listed in the article.
Not only does this not surprise me, but it may be a plausible explanation as to why he did not befall the same fate as the other Kennedy's.

That is quite an interesting perspective. While I can see where you are coming from (the KGB had a hand in those assassinations), I don't really see it being plausible. I don't think even the KGB would be so bold as to go after American leaders. No, I think the two Kennedys that were shot down were killed by nuts that were trying to achieve something they could not through their own efforts in their lives.
Radar Rider,
While I would certainly agree that the Russian government did not directly orchestrate the demise of the other two Kennedy's, I would submit to you at the time, however, they did have significant influence here and abroad. If Mr. Kennedy was an ally on any level with the KGB, which the evidence provided in this post suggests, I dare say that they would have very little difficulty politely suggesting that this man not be harmed.
Also, if it were not for the actions of Jack Ruby, I would agree with the assessment of the killers being "nuts that were trying to achieve something they could not through their own efforts in their lives."
However, his actions lead me to the question of why? For that, I certainly do not have an answer. Of course, I could surmise several, but lack evidence to validate them as anything more than pure speculation.
Radar Rider,
I just found this online. You may find it very interesting (or a complete waste of time). It is a website that looks at Lee Harvey Oswald's visits to the USSR and provides some pretty compelling information.

Then again, maybe that is exactly what they were doing.

Should I break out my tin-foil watch cap? I don't think Ted deserves this much attention - and I don't think any answers are forthcoming on the JFK/Oswald/KGB/Mafia/CIA conspiracy theories.
Ted's an idiot, and probably did sell his soul to the Soviets, for a couple of bottles of vodka and a few tins of caviar.
No question about it x_sf_med, Ted does not deserve any attention and there is no way any of the questions about the dealings of these matters will be resolved here, or anywhere for that matter.
However, it does raise some interesting questions. At least more interesting right now, given the fact that I am so sick of hearing about John Kerry, Obama, and (fill in the democrat). It is more or less a benign topic that helps my mind to get away from all the issues that upset me so.

OK, then. Tinfoil and copper wire watchcap is being placed on head, to keep all Kennedy related thoughts out.

While I respect your opinion, I simply disagree that there was any kind of conspiracy involved. Not meaning to highjack the thread, but I will state that I once followed all the "interesting leads" in the JFK assassination, and would argue many of the more interesting theories. Age and experience have led me to conclude, according to Occam's Razor, that Lee Harvey Oswald was just a disaffected nut that acted on his own.
x_sf_med,
Good call on the additions to the watch cap. Certainly influenced by the immortal words of the fictional Adrian Cronauer:
"We've got a special man in the audience today, Right now, it's Mr. Leo.
He's a fashion consultant for the Army. Oh, thank you, Adrian.
I'm just very happy to be here.
I want to tell you something. You know, this whole camouflage thing, for me, doesn't work very well.
Why is that? Well, because you go in the jungle, I can't see you.
You know, it's like wearing stripes and plaid. For me, I want to do something different.
You know, you go in the jungle, make a statement. If you're going to fight, clash."
Radar Rider,
I will agree with your assessment, I was merely suggesting that there may be more to the story than the original post suggested. I will now continue to lurk as I have met my daily intellectual capital requirement.
