thinking done by cowards, and its fighting by fools." Thucydides, 'The

>Senator Ted Kennedy is a traitor.

> "We see some of the same sentiments today, in that some Democrats see
>the Republican president as being a threat and the true obstacle to peace,
>instead of seeing our enemies as the true danger," said Paul Kengor, a
>political science professor at Grove City College and the author of new
>book, The Crusader: Ronald Reagan and the Fall of Communism.
>
> In his book, which came out this week, Kengor focuses on a KGB letter
>written at the height of the Cold War that shows that Sen. Edward Kennedy
>(D-Mass.) offered to assist Soviet leaders in formulating a public
>relations strategy to counter President Reagan's foreign policy and to
>complicate his re-election efforts.
>
> The letter, dated May 14, 1983, was sent from the head of the KGB to
>Yuri Andropov, who was then General Secretary of the Soviet Union's
>Communist Party.
>
> In his letter, KGB head Viktor Chebrikov offered Andropov his
>interpretation of Kennedy's offer. Former U.S. Sen. John Tunney (D-Calif.)
>had traveled to Moscow on behalf of Kennedy to seek out a partnership with
>Andropov and other Soviet officials, Kengor claims in his book. (Emphasis

>In my opinion, Kennedy's act was traitorous. At the time, Russia was our
>enemy, and Kennedy sought to work in concert with our enemy to defeat US
>foreign policy.

>At a minimum Kennedy demonstrated a stunning cynicism about our form of
>government - the kind of disrepect that should disqualify him for public
>office. He wasn't alone. A number of other Democrats were involved. Rather
>than work hard to win at the ballot box, these traitors prefer to work
>secretly to undermine the will of the people.
>
>Imagine the outcry if a US Senator was caught today offering , in a letter,
>to assist Al Qaeda to overcome Bush's policy for democracy in the MidEast.

>The traitorous streak runs deeply in the Democrat party. For them, the
>possession of power is more important than the survival of our country. Ted
>Kennedy. Jane Fonda. John Kerry. All claim to be patriots. All actively
>work to undermine our country. All directly offer to help our enemies
>defeat us. They don't need to be defeated at the ballot box. They need to
>be arrested, tried and imprisoned.

>For his traitorous act, Kennedy enters the Hall of Shame. (Hat tip to

>UPDATE: Curt, at Flopping Aces, has much more evidence of Kennedy's

>It includes this stunning little tidbit.
> Kennedy suggested that he could provide a venue to bring Soviet views to
>the major networks and into American living rooms by inviting ABC
