It's been 10 years since former Sen. Ted Kennedy's death.
Surprisingly, NBC ran an op-ed from David Mark about how the Left needs to re-examine its lionization of the late Kennedy, younger brother to John and Robert.
Democrats should be no more willing to forgive Kennedy for his personal transgressions because they agreed with the progressive policy outcomes he helped achieve.
Politicians such as President Barack Obama and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi gave tributes to Kennedy as if he were a saint sent from the heavens.
Even now, media outlets describe the event - wherein Kennedy drunkenly drove his car off a bridge and left Mary Jo Kapechne to drown - as if it was something that happened to Kennedy and not something he caused.
In July, The Associated Press commemorated the 50th anniversary of the tragedy by tweeting: "50 years ago today, Sen. Edward M. Kennedy left a party on Chappaquiddick Island near Martha's Vineyard with Mary Jo Kopechne, 28; some time later, Kennedy's car went off a bridge into the water. Kennedy was able to escape, but Kopechne drowned."
For all the terrible things of which Trump is accused, Kennedy actually left a woman to die, used his family's influence to avoid criminal charges, sexually assaulted a waitress, and exposed himself to several women in his home.
