Senator Scott Brown Would Be Tribute to Memory of Mary Jo Kopechne

By John W. Lillpop

Should the good people of Massachusetts act wisely and elect Republican
Scott Brown to replace the late Ted Kennedy in the United States Senate, the
immediate benefit would be to prevent the communization of our health care
system and the inevitable devastation that ensues when government
bureaucrats meddle in matters best left to people who know what the hell
they are doing.

By voting NAY! to ObamaCare, Senator Brown would drive a dagger into the
heart of yet another multi-trillion dollar mistake by the Obama
administration and its Marxist allies in Congress.

Beyond the economic benefits, replacing Kennedy with a Republican would
provide a fitting and sober tribute to the memory of Mary Jo Kopechne.

For those too young to remember, Mary Jo Kopechne was a 29-year-old whose
precious young life was snuffed out on July 18, 1969 as a result of her
decision to ride in an automobile driven by Ted Kennedy who, in a drunken
stupor,drove the car off a bridge.

Notwithstanding his intoxicated state, the senator was able to abandon the
sinking vehicle in order to save his own life. Young Mary Jo Kopechne was
allowed to drown in what is known as the Chappaquiddick incident.

Ted Kennedy's inherent indecency and lack of concern for others was amply
demonstrated by the fact that he did not even bother to report the incident
until the next morning.

Besides just surviving Chappaquiddick, Ted Kennedy managed to avoid serious
legal ramifications and continued to be held in high esteem by Democrats as
a dedicated warrior in the war to bring equality to women.

Liberals decided to ignore the innocent life of Mary Jo Kopechne in their
fervor to make Ted Kennedy a champion of the "little" person.

Electing Scott Brown will obviously not bring Mary Jo Kopechne back to life.
But it might help remind Americans that elitist liberals, at their core, do
not give a whit about little people.

Elect Scott Brown, Massachusetts: Do it in memory of Mary Jo!
