Under Obama’s government rationed healthcare, Kennedy’s brain turmor surgery wouldn’t have been worth it, eh?

Well, I don't wish cancer on anyone, not even an enemy.

I hope he didn't suffer too much, though I hope he is brought to justice for what appears a tyrannical and wicked life. If I'm wrong, I hope I'm forgiven.

That said, I wish he'd take the entire Camelot PR fiction to the grave with him. America is not a family founded on royalty or even quasi-royalty. I despise the entire Camelot myth and wish it would be buried and each individual would have to earn their rank and prove that they deserve respect.

Sorry = "Mary Jo".

Tragic chapter in history.

May God Bless them both in his own manner.

RIP for one of the most malign influences in American politics over a period of half a century. May God have mercy on his soul.

Well, we know what comes next. The shameless Obama and his minions in the Rat party using Teddy’s death to tell us we now have an obligation to pass government healthcare to “honor Teddy’s legacy.” What’s the over/under on how long before the Rats are using his death to shove govt. deathcare down our throats?

May they do it with the fervor of the Wellstone Memorial. That didn’t go so well.

"Senator Kennedy, welcome to the hereafter."

"Thank you - could you please show me to the bar?"

"Sure, but first let me introduce you to someone. Mary Jo, come say hi to the new arrival before we send him down."

We finally know what happened to his brothers and who killed them. The truth starts with these facts:

This may be a rallying cry for democrats to cram socialized health care down our throats.

Instead of “win one for the gipper”, it will be “pass health care for Ted”.

Remember the democrats motto “never let a good crises go to waste” or its corrolary “never fail to capitalize on a tragedy or a death”

Let’s not forget how big it was to get the Kennedy’s behind Obama in order for him to win the Dem nomination (and ensure an easy cakewalk to the White House). In many ways Teddy is to blame for what we have to deal with today. No sympathy for him whatsoever.

Thought I’d be happy to hear this. I don’t feel anything but I think we’d better be prepared for the “Let’s get this healthcare deal done for Ted...it’s what he wanted”...bull crap. You know it’s coming.
