Well Said, Ted!!!

This is from today's Progress Report:

Last night, Sen. Ted Kennedy (D-MA) accepted an honorary degree from Harvard University. "I have often been called a liberal, and it usually was not meant to be a compliment," he said. "But I remember what my brother said about liberalism shortly before he was elected president. "He said if by a liberal they mean someone who looks ahead and not behind, someone who welcomes new ideas without rigid reactions, someone who cares about the welfare of the people...If that is what they mean by liberal, I am proud to be a liberal," Kennedy said.

Me too, Ted ... I'm very proud to be a LIBERAL!!!
