Ted Kennedy asked if he fears Obama possibly being a target


Following Ted Kennedy's highly publicized endorsement of Barack Obama, Kennedy appeared on CBS This Morning yesterday to discuss it. I still can't believe that anyone would ask Kennedy this question, but the boob from CBS asks him if he fears for Obama's assassination (in so many words), and then proceeds to mention that Kennedy is familiar with "agents of change" being "targets."

Unbelievable.

Our society occasionally veers off the tracks of reasoned debate by being overly politically correct, but to say that to the brother of President Kennedy is absurd. And implying that Obama could be a target is even more ridiculous.

Yet another example of fine American journalism.
