Look for a media blitz telling us that it is a moral imperative to pass the health care bill.

Have to agree with that and will add nothing else or say anything more on the subject.

“Fine, but one should NEVER dance on someone else’s Grave.”

Are you saying I am dancing on a grave?

I am not.

Point out where I danced on someones grave.

(there are a couple of people whose grave I would Pi$$ on, but they haven’t died yet)

“America has lost the quintessential Democrat.”

Old school yes, not the blatant Marxist crap of today’s young and mid career democrat politicos.

Nothing personal, but Ted Kennedy and Jesus’ mother Mary are both dead. Might as well “pray” to either of them. Same effect.

Guess Obama and Rham Emmanuel will have to make the most out of this ‘crisis’ too. .... 2 weeks of non stop coverage,I’m guessin, because that’s how long Washington will be talking about it, and the ‘main stream media’ covering it.....and of course thousands will stand in line...the Rotunda..blah blah blah bet the woman he killed won’t be mentioned though or his alcoholic tirades...I’m so glad Government forced rationing healthcare did NOT pass before he died.

Thank you for posting this picture. Some of us have not forgotten. And we won’t forget 9-11 either.

However, if one were to select someone to be the butt pf unhelpful and inappropriate remarks, you have to admit that Teddy Kennedy would be a good choice.

Can't argue with that. But I think that if you can't say something respectful about him before he's cold in his grave, then you shouldn't say anything at all.

Did Massachusetts change their law for appointing a new senator? Can they still change the law or has the clock started for the special election and it would be considered an ex post facto law to change it now?

(Yes, yes, I know the laws are very mutable whenever a Kennedy is involved)

Yeah, like the treatment he got for a brain tumor would be readily available to everyone else who needed it under the planned universal health care.

“Had we had MY health care, we would have given Teddy a red pill. Or, was it blue? Oh, well. Doesn’t matter now!”

Sorry, but the time to pray for him was while he was alive. Once they are dead that's it!!!!!

Jesus taught us to be “fruit inspectors” as to decipher where a man's heart lies. I saw NO evidence that Teddy was a believer and follower of Jesus Christ. Sitting in a church and lighting a candle does not make one a believer and save you from eternal damnation any more than sitting in a garage makes you a car. He fought against all things holy. It is my deeply held belief that Ted Kennedy went straight to hell and no amount of prayers now will change that.

I DO NOT relish in this. Christ died for all and wishes no man should perish. I have prayed for him over the years because I too, wish no man to enter eternal damnation. i can ONLY hope that he saw the truth and accepted it in his last days. Sorry I don't mean to rag on you, but I just can't stand the whole idea that prayers for the dead can change their eternal destination. That is a choice they must make while they are on this earth. If they reject Christ while they are alive, what in the world makes us think our prayers after they are dead changes anything. They rejected the free gift. End of story!!!!

Whats the last thing that goes through a fly’s mind when it crashes into an oncoming car windshield?

Answer: It’s ass.

It’s sad to note that the last thing that probably went through Ted’s mind was the American Juggernaut ripping through his health care dream.

I hope it dies with him. Watch the dems capitalize on his death to resurrect it.

I am of two minds what to say, so I will only think of Mary Jo Kopechne and her family instead.

May God have mercy on his soul, I cannot...............
