In his speech, Brown referred to the senator as "Sir Edward Kennedy" and called him a "great friend."

Somehow I doubt that Mary Jo Kopechne would consider him such a great friend.

Anything with the word "Honor" should never be associated with fat Teddy (probably not any Kennedy).

Sir Theodore the Murderer.

Drunk driving accident resulting in death of some one is "Negligent Homicide" not murder.
