Sen. Kennedy, So good at saving Lives!

Sen. Ted Kennedy tried to rescue six fishermen caught by rising tides and crashing waves on the end of a Cape Cod breakwater Sunday.
Kennedy and his wife, Victoria, spotted the men from their oceanfront home in the Kennedy compound just after 11:15 a.m. and called the Hyannis Fire Department.
Then the 73-year-old senior senator from Massachusetts and a pal jumped into a small boat and tried to get close to the men, who had walked out along the rocks to the end of the breakwater but got stuck when their path of retreat was swamped by wind-lashed waves.

Hmm, too bad for Mary Jo Kopechne that he wasn't as good at saving people from drowning back in 1969.
