Los Angeles Cardinal Roger M. Mahony, who worked with Kennedy in an unsuccessful effort to achieve comprehensive immigration reform in 2007, said "the voiceless, the powerless and the most needy of our citizens have lost a great champion" with the senator's death.
Yea, the sparrow hath found an house, and the swallow a nest for herself, where she may lay her young, even thine altars, O Lord of hosts, my King, and my God.

This is about the 57th time I have heard Kennedy described as "a voice for the voiceless". I would really like to know who "the voiceless" actually are. It can't be minorities, homosexuals or the poor, since we're hearing "voices" on their behalf constantly.
