Now I've seen it all.

Sen Ed (Ted, the alcoholic) Kennedy was made an honorary KNIGHT by Queen Elizabeth and is now SIR Edward Kennedy.

I freakin' kid you not! The damned tree-hugger is a KNIGHT!

Maybe this is better suited for the HUMOR section?

Isn't that against the Law? I know it is a fine point but, wasn't a law enacted at the start of our country which simply stated that all titles of "nobility" were null and void for citizens of the United States?
I'm not impressed w/ the Kennedys period. His brother did some good things as prez (yes) but he really should have been court marshalled for what happened to his boat in the soloman islands. Jack jr. got buried at sea from one of our Destroyers w/ full honors and he never served a day in his life! Ted... wow where do I start? Drowned mistresses? Drunk driving? the list can go on and on.
Everyone has thier past, but Senators should be held to a higher standard. The Kennedy dynasty has run its course and good ridance....
