May all you good forgiving christians have a wonderful day

Personally, I'd have a lot more questions that never seem to have been asked, or at least never publicly reported.
Who did he see when he got back to the house? Why did they think he was soaking wet? Did they know Mary Jo had left with him? Did they call for help then? If not, why not? If she left with him for any more than a ride home doesn't that make her a cheat too?  The other thing that is hard to do to is keep remembering that this all happened 40 years ago. The "dallying" was much more accepted then in political circles that it is today.  It's easy to use a 2009 yard stick to measure a 1969 incident. The forensics just didn't exist then as they do now. More questions. Did divers recover Mary Jo's body or was the car hauled up first? The car was supposedly upside down. No photos?   Why couldn't she get out if he did? If she was trapped how did she find an air pocket? How big was it? How long would it have sustained her? Was she otherwise injured? The parents forgave him, why ? Why did they refuse an autopsy for their daughter? Why didn't they insist on further investigation and perhaps charges of conspiracy and a cover up, especially since she was their only child? Did they allow themselves to be paid off? If so why?
As far as influence of Teddy's father, look up when he died. His Mom, Rose, held most of the political reins for a very long time.
  I am a little surprised at how deeply some of you can hate. What happened to turn the other cheek? Especially if Mary Jo's family forgave him. I can understand the political dislike and total disagreement with that, but the personal hate? Doesn't that kind of grudge wear down your heart? IMHO.

[ELK@KC]

Like you turned the other cheek on Generals Westmoreland and Hershey???

Since I am in the category of which you speak... Actually Diane...Nope... It doesn't bother my heart at all.
Other than this post and voicing my opinion ..I don't give him or anyone of that nature a minute or a second of my thought time. If it comes on the TV I turn it.. or walk out of the room.  I don't dwell on it nor do I care.. soooo.. a grudge? No grudge.. he isn't worth my time to have a grudge.. And actually it does my heart good for the old SOB to be off this planet...
I'm not going to pander around and blow smoke up everyone's behind acting like I am this all forgiving all loving all kind person on every little situation. I'm no bleeding heart. Am I good and kind and loving ...and can I look at myself in the mirror every morning with pride? For the most part.. yes I can...
God knows my status... as he does Mr Kennedy's.. so I'll just let him take care of us both.. 

May all you good forgiving christians have a wonderful day

...Oh I plan to have a wonderful day and month and year and life. And thank you so much for caring... I wish the same to you dear Sally.........

The kennedys are a cursed family.  Started with the old man and continues on through his children, grandchildren, ggrandchildren and gggrandchildren.

UNLESS one of them acknowleges those sins.   THe power and money was his legacy along with the way he obtained the power and wealth.  The trap was set by him and his heirs fall into it every time.

Exd 34:7           Keeping mercy for thousands, forgiving iniquity and transgression and sin, and that will by no means clear [the guilty]; visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children, and upon the children's children, unto the third and to the fourth [generation].

One more post then I am out of here for good.  LET HIM WHO IS WITHOUT SIN . . . . . JUDGE NOT LEST YE BE JUDGED . . . and you don't need to start quoting the Bible to me, because I won't be here to read it.

  think I'm experiencing deja vu here.........back to another convo about somebody being dead and what a worthless piece of crap he was, the tiller deal, .....I never really cared about Ted Kennedy one way or the other to tell the truth.
I liked Bobby ......
SRK curses only have the power you give them...I don't believe in curses ....especially I don't believe my God will punish children and grandchildren for the sins of their fathers...ain't buyin it. Y'all always trot out the Old Testament to prove your points, it's my understanding Jesus pretty much negates the Old Testament..


Matthew 6:9-15
This, then, is how you should pray: Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name, your kingdom come, your will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us today our daily bread. Forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from the evil one. For if you forgive men when they sin against you, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. But if you do not forgive men their sins, your Father will not forgive your sins.

I liked Bobby ......

Bobby was kinda cute actually... and John was very handsome.

[kshillbillys]
