The last night time burial at Arlington National Cemetery was that of  Senator Robert Kennedy, Ted Kennedy’s brother. The brothers grave sights are very close.

Kennedy Grave

Today we are witnessing the funeral, and the burial of Senator Edward Kennedy at Arlington National Cemetery(ANC). Is this goodbye to the America we love?

On the surface it appears to be that this is the end of political competition with compromise. That was Senator Kennedy.

Will  Catholic social justice go to the grave with the Standard bearer? That was Senator Kennedy.

Is it the end of old school Liberalism. Liberalism with respect? Liberalism with respect was Senator Kennedy.

Will Senator Edward Kennedy’s burial mean a turn to uncompromising Radicalism? Will left and right radicalism destroy America? We, ourselves will answer this questions ourselves. Sooner rather than Later.

Is this goodbye to the America we love?

Senator Ted kennedy will be buried South of President John F Kennedy's Grave

It has been reported that Senator Ted Kennedy will be buried at Arlington National Cemetery. he will be buried south of  the “eternal flame”  and JFK’s Grave. This according to ABC News. The Kennedy Family however has not announced Funeral Or Burial Arrangements.  This is has been confirmed by Fox News.

President John F. Kennedy originally chose  his burial place because it was the most peaceful place in Washington DC. Snippet:

From ABC news.

“Sen. Edward Kennedy will be buried just 95 feet south of the area where his older brothers, President John F. Kennedy and Robert F. Kennedy, were laid to rest just yards apart in Arlington National Cemetery, ABC News has learned.

Kennedy’s tenure as a senator allows for full burial at the military cemetery in Virginia.”
