Senator Ted Kennedy has died.

[TheThirdRuffian]

Stock Price of Pernod Ricard (distiller of Chivas Regal) down 2.16% since the announcement of Ted Kennedy's death.

Coincidence? . . . I think not.

[BlueStateBlues]

UPI: “Funeral plans include a burial-at-pond. It was reported that upon Kennedy’s death the average weight for a United States Senator has fallen by 15 pounds.”

[GraceG]

We must pass health care reform in memory of Uncle Ted...

I see this as the next headline..

[TheThirdRuffian]

“Let those who loved him bury their dead.”

I do feel sorry for the owners of Chivas Regal, various pepper spary and mace manufacturers, and the bartender at the Rose & Crown.

Due to my disrespect for this subhuman murderer, I have tried to avoid all threads, so:

Would saying he is no longer eligible for the “Cash for Clunkers” program be inappropriate?

[Pippin]

As a Catholic Christian I’ll keep him family in my prayers and may he rest in peace. Out of respect for his family I’ll decline to make any other comments.

[angcat]

LOL

[Unlikely Hero]

The health care bill will be his last service for the Party.

May he find peace.

[MeekOneGOP]

Yep!

Thanks for that! :)

Now, then ... that being said.

** He’s dead, Jim! **

[bvw]

We must consider the living who learn from how men are spoken of at such times.

The dead are dead.

Mr. Kennedy was a drunken skunk, lout and cad. For the good of the living, we must remember and speak of the man for what he was.

[blasater1960]

My father also died from brain cancer and I wouldnt wish that on anyone...even Kennedy.

Having said that, he was a disgusting human being.

[TexasFreeper2009]

Did he become the “lion of the senate” from lying in the senate?

LOL

Hope he's got a good excuse for the whole killing millions of babies thing. Because I get the feeling God isn't gonna like his pro choice excuse.

[Lucius Cornelius Sulla]

In Boston there are many unflattering stories about Teddy and his Kennedy clan.

This goes way back. When my mother was a young woman she went to a public camp for girls across the street from the Kennedy compound in Hyannisport. She and all of her fellow attendees were told that 'good girls' NEVER visited the Kennedy's. This was the early 1940's.

[edcoil]

I am writing a book on Ted and his brothers. It’s called:

The bootleggers sons

[Bommer]

Ted Kennedy need not be idealized, or enlarged in death beyond what how bloated he was in life; to be remembered simply as a lying and devious man, who saw wrong and compounded it, saw suffering and legalized it (abortion), saw war and surrendered to it!

[rcrngroup]

Sob. Tear. sarc/

[Terriergal]

Oh surely but even Kennedys have to have some brain function to do that.

I tend to think this was something penned by the people around him.

[skinkinthegrass]

Its been said,
If you can't say anything good for the deceased don't anything @ all"

well...{0}

One should always speak the truth, but hopefully without being snide, obscene, tasteless and/or boorish. We are smarter and better than the vile, untruthful losers that infest the nutroots, and a time like this is the time to prove it. What would Reagan do?
+++++++++++++++++

Right. I for one, will speak the truth. (John 1:14) My momma taught me not to be tasteless and obscene. :)
