2. Didn't know he was chair of the Soc Sec subcommittee.

But boy am I glad to hear it!

7. Sen Kerry is Vice-Chair of the Health Care committee

And Sen. Kennedy is Chair of HELP, so any health care legislation that goes through the Congress will go through both MA Senators, once on policy, once on the money.

9. So that's why the Neoclowns haven't managed to wreck it

at least not yet.

p.s. HELP = Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee... had to look that one up.

5. Thanks for this!

Even though I was able to see the speech live on site :) I can't wait to watch the video. It was very, very good, and right on target on so many points.

Damn, it would be nice to have a President Kerry.

11. This speech with the 4 other Faneuil Hall ones
