Gonna be an interesting reunion - given the heat and all.

,,,Pal: Dying Kennedy spoke of reuniting...etc..
Pal huh?
My cynicism RED LIGHT is glowing.
Like Jimmy Durante used to say “Everyone wants to get in the act”.
There will be as many people who report teddy’s LAST WORDS as were in the bleachers during Babe Ruth’s ‘point’ before a home run or claim to have known ‘someone’ at Woodstock.
All want to get their 15 minutes of fame.
When you look at the ‘final’ pictures of him he makes “Bernie” look lively, so to hear and understand down to the last comma what this guy was saying is laughable.
Hell, in recent years you couldn’t understand two sentences he put together- both in context and his delivery.
IMNSHO he and his aura “DIED” when he abandoned MJK in the pond.
I certainly hope ‘The Lord’ has had plenty of time to figure out an appropriate hereafter for this latest slime ball to come under his judgement.
Burying him in Arlington is just a slap in the face to many loyal Americans among the ‘All gave some, Some gave all’ crowd.

I will be more than pleased to affix the Bama legacy to old Teddy. I see the same lion like qualities in them both. And every time I watch a nature show of a lion taking its prey I will think Bama/Kennedy.

Teddy just didn't want to go down as the Black Sheep of the Family,
so he just passed it on.

I bet Mary Jo will be waiting for him.I HIGHLY doubt that Mary Jo and the Tedster will be in the same place. Even being generous and assuming the Tedster will end up in Purgatory, he's gonna have a lot of time there. I'm sure Mary Jo has already moved on. (please note: I do no presume to know God's mind, so have no idea where the Tedster will end up. But I have my wishes, and it doesn't begin with "P"!)

The endorsement was as much of a surprise to Obama as it was to anyone else, said longtime Kennedy friend Phil Johnston. I am starting to wonder about that. The Kennedy family has many ties to Chicago, the most notable is through the Shriver family. Chris Kennedy (son of Robert) is CEO of the Merchandise Mart. Sargent Shriver ran the MM in the 50's.
I think this might have been a long time coming would not be surprised if after peeling all of the layers back we might see a Kennedy hand in Obama's rapid rise. All part & parcel of the Chicago Way.

This is like Weekend at Bernies. Does anyone have any idea how devastating a glioblastoma brain tumor is to the mind and body? The surgical procedures are equally destructive. Obviously, Kennedy miraciously escaped them. They want us to believe that he was writing letters, and talking about Obama and running the Senate from his deathbed. Two relatives of mine had these tumors, in the last months of their lives, neither could finish a sentence beyond the first several words. Any writing they attempted, even early in the process, was completely distorted in size and then would trail off to scribbles and unreadable. I do not believe a word of this crap.

The only logical explanation is that Edward Kennedy was the Avatar and his job was to restore balance and save the world.The logical explanation is Ted was brain dead or Delewho made this crap up to help pass deathcare.

..he was elected because of big bucks...he stayed in power because of big bucks...as far as legacy...the big dig fits him perfectly....another out spent failure, like most of his “causes”.....
gonna be a big drop, in off shore accounts now.....
it's a wonder he wasn't buried at sea, he loved it so much.
Maybe it was because the waves sounded like a woman dying to him......I certainly hope so.

You have to imagine what a bunch of losers the remaining Kennedy’s are if Teddy has to rely on Obama to carry on the family legacy. What good is a family legacy if someone from outside the family (who isn’t even Irish) has to carry it on?

Heck, I’m going to get a well deserved massage this morning and then spend the rest of the day with a friend shopping - anywhere as long as it’s not near a tv - I don’t feel like running to the commode and hurling all day....and I doubt he’ll be meeting JFK or RFK anywhere anytime soon....

“Interesting front office...I was expecting something a little more ethereal, with a pearly gate or something...is that a toasting fork in the corner? Is it Fondue Night?
“Oh, good, a concierge...ow! What was that?
“I’ll say one thing, the Renaissance painters really got you angels wrong...I’ve been looking forward to seeing you as well, and St. Peter and Gabriel and...
“Hey, don’t pull! I’m coming, really, just having a look around...getting awfully dark all of a sudden...

....and as long as Barack Obama lives hell feel he owes a great debt to Ted Kennedy. I'm sure Odumbo has received condolences from Teddy's Russian "contacts", time will tell, narcissism can only hide for a brief time, it normally reveals ALL as we've been seeing.....

Well I guess they’ll only need one more to complete their foursome for their tee time at the Hell Country Club.

I would say its not the president thats giving the eulogy today, I would say its a friend who loved him whos giving the eulogy, Delahunt said,
I would say it is a politician using the time to push his socialism agenda....
To: Doogle
I have a feeling Obie feels much more indebted to the Daley Crime Family than the Kennedy Mob.
