Ted Kennedy was a human being who had a soul created in the image and likeness of God. I can't feel any joy in his suffering and death.

We all knew this moment was coming and now its here.

The Kennedy story is a sad one. The story of a father and his sons who were apparently addicted to alcohol and it appears sex as well.

I can only hope that Ted Kennedy found as Glenn Beck might put it “sanity and sobriety” in the final days of his life.

I honestly can't think of one good and respectful thing to say about his life or his passing, best that I say nothing.

Bump, for the grim reaper has arrived!

First thought that came to me was Marlowe's Dr. Faustus:

O lente, lente currite noctis equi!

Then, checking the spelling, I see Marlowe borrowed it from Ovid. It works on two levels.

"...like the left will restrain itself whenever a conservative, especially a CHRISTIAN conservative passes away, like Jerry Falwell, and hateful, vile rhetoric that DU & Kos, expressed about that. Nothing I have seen here even approaches that the leftist level of hatred when a Christian conservative passes away."

Must we act like slackers that live in Mom's basement fantasizing about dating a real woman while working for minimum wage at Old Navy? We're real adults here, and most of us have more class in our pinkie finger than the whole lot of them.

Obama: Now we must pass health care in honor of Ted Kennedy.

Obama and the RATs will redouble their efforts to force their DeathCare plan on America because of Ted's death, mark my words... We have to fight back even harder.

He killed A woman, one that we know of. What about JFK Jr.?
He along with Clinton they sent the coast guard to the wrong place to look for JFK Jr.’s plane. Everyone knew there
was only one possible place the plane could have been.
I was listening to Steve Mulsberg when JFK Jr.’s plane went down, a pilot called the show and said, their is only one route and every one that flew that route knows there is only one possible place for that plane to be, he said exectly were the plane was and it was. Steve Mulsberg thought it was just a crank call and told him to call the coast guard if he knew where the plane was and hung up.
The man said he flew that route many times.
The left JFK Jr. and family members there to die.
Edward and his low life sons went to claim the body. Why didn’t the next of kin Caroline go and clain her brothers body?

Maybe the rats will have a political rally at his funeral, like they did with Wellstone.
I’m sure the news releases are all ready to be sent out: “Obamacare” will now be known as....”KENNEDYCARE”!

“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.”

I agree. I just wish Teddy had done his part to make it easier, or even possible, to say something respectful about him before he assumes room temperature.

I’m sure Teddy will be thoughtful enough to keep the fire burning for Robert Byrd’s imminent arrival.

Agreed. I take great satisfaction from knowing that God knows ALL, and will judge him justly. We are but human, and we cannot truthfully know anyone’s heart.

As I said on another thread, I will be praying for his family, as no matter what we may think of his politics, I’m sure they loved him, and are mourning tonight. Death is hard to take, even when one has a while to “prepare” for it.

“Yep, it will be pomp and circumstance, Zero will give a teleprompter reading.”

Now there’s a thought. If he speaks at the funeral, will using a teleprompter be a funeral first?

Kennedy smears Judge Alito, Mrs. Alito in tears:

“In suggesting that Samuel Alito had belonged to a racist conservative group, Massachusetts Democratic Senator Ted Kennedy relied heavily on an essay published by the organization that sounded like a bigoted rant. The essay, titled ‘In Defense of Elitism,...... magazine’s editor at the time says the article was pure satire, a send-up of what liberals think conservatives think. He added quote, ‘I think left-wing groups have been feeding Senator Kennedy snippets and he has been mindlessly reciting them,”

Some are saying former Massachusetts Governor and 1988 Democratic presidential nominee Michael Dukakis is the likely fill-in.

"Watch the dems capitalize on his death to resurrect it."

Will we experience another Wellstone memorial service political rally?

Oh man... another despicable 'RAT funerally. Bring it on!
