“It would be poetic justice if health care fell one vote short of passing because of Ted’s politically motivated stunt to deny then governor Romney the right to appoint a new senator for Massachusetts.”

That’s a real possibility.

I agree with you, Now there will be an even harder full court press to get the Teddybama Health Care Bills passed to honor St Tedward Kennedy..
What a joke considering his concern for the health of Mary Jo back in the day.....

RFK Jr. is still lurking in the wings. Don’t forget he called everyone who denounces the myth of man-made global warming “traitors”.

He may still walk into Congress one day.

Selected not elected can work wonders for people who may not run a successful campaign.

Thanks for including the word “Apokatastasis”...it’s led me to some fascinating reading since you posted it yesterday.

I second that! I never heard the word Apokatastasis before either.

The worst thing about all this is the MSM fawning over this guy. I saw Chrissie Matthews on NBC this morning, practically repeating the orgiastic performance he put in for 0 last August. It all makes me want to barf.

In other news, Mary Jo Kopechne still unavailable for comment (apologies to James Taranto).

Good riddance.

We have no idea if Senator Kennedy had a deathbed re-conversion. We cannot judge.

Let’s see- When Tony Snow died- the media made him out to be hoprrible, but when a Murderer and an nagry, loudmouthed public d0.runk dies he’s a ‘great man’? Daily Jos, Democratic Underground and several other extremist leftist websites sheered and maligned Tony Snow’s death- one of hte nicest humans you’d ever want to meet- but you watch- when sites beging statign the UGLY FACTS about Kennedy, the left wil l go absolutely m.ental

Our cynicism comes naturally here at this site.

While a departed soul's final resting place is secured on their personal acceptance of the Messiah (no pun intended here), our cynicism comes from years of watching the Roman Catholic church in the USA gives a big moral pass to Rich Irish Catholics.

Maybe it is a great homage to St. Patrick, but a person's state of wealth should have no bearing on their spiritual bank account.
