Once again Fox News is caught flatfooted while CNN is airing news of the Kennedy death, FoxNews is continuing with regular programming.
I don’t think Kennedy was capable of making a good confession. And I doubt that the family would let any priest on the premises without being certain that the priest would never demand confession of the sin of promoting abortion.
Perhaps it was Ted Sorenson.
Or murder. Or treason. Or getting his nephew off a rape charge by smearing the young woman to death and perjuring himself.
The man spent his entire life in sin. He didn’t have that long to make a full confession.
I didn’t like them interrupting Glenn Beck!
...and I'm late to the party, again! That's exactly the connection I made, too :-)
So far Fox News is doing very well compared to CNN.

Fox News Alert!
Anna Nichole Smith is still dead.....
That little matter in equity is being sorted out as we type.
What does that mean? In relation to Mary Jo Kopechne's death, that is?
I don't get it. What's a "waitress sandwich"?
Who cares? Good news can be announced by anyone....
Are you sure? :O)
I liked reading the minute of their face-to-face to discuss it. Also present: Soviet agent Sen. John Tunney (Traitor-Calif.), Dr. Armand Hammer, Sov. Amb. Anatoly Dobrynin, and Gen. Sec'y. of the CPSU, Yuri Andropov. Nice to have you drop in, Ted.
They'll be reconvening in the Asmodeus Room.
How about, measuring the drapes in Ted's office and kicking out the staff?
Well, they've probably been planning it for the past 18 months. Vultures!
It's a question of prioritization. So much news. So little airtime.
Gee, I guess Obama didn't go visit him, did he? I guess Kennedy was just another "typical white guy" just like Obama's grandmother was just another "typical white woman" not worthy of a deathbed visit.
All you need to say is Kennedy is dead, good.
So what?
You want all Kennedy on all channels 24/7?
Who needs that?
With Kennedy gone, they have one less sure vote to pass this bill now, and Byrd might not even be fully in the US Senate come they come back after August, making 2 less votes for them. If anything, this reduces their chances of passing 0bamacare from the already low chance of this bill passing.
Not to mention, the public as adamantly against 0bamcare as ever.
Maybe so. But I fear it won't take much to pick off the RINO's to go along with getting their names on a tribute to the Swimmer.
The weak sisters in Maine come to mind at the top of the list. McCain is making some asinine comments lately about going along to get along. And then you have Graham, Voinovich, and Lugar for some added uncertainty.
