MY sincere condolences to his family and friends. I may not have agreed with him politically, but he had people who loved him and those people deserve our best wishes.

Thank you, that's exactly the way I feel about it. What's done is done, he's in God's hands now, but his wife & kids & the rest of extended family & friends who loved him (none of whom have anything to do with the choices he made in life) are not, and it's for them I pray that God will guide them gently through their grief. In fact, it's the survivors for whom I always pray after anyone's death - they're the ones who need it on this earth.

I was remarking on what someone posted. Yeah. On what I posted.

Look. When somone replies to me as you did in such a nice way. And then I reply back - also in a nice way.

And then that someone proceeds to tell me that I should "focus on what I should focus on rather than tending to yourself", whatever the hell that means...

Then I should tell that someone to STFU and not bother to reply if they dont want me focusing on whatever.

“an inadequate welfare system, unsatisfactory job training programs, and insufficient financial support for all its citizens.

“When history looks back to this era it should recognize this generation as one which cared about human beings enough to halt the practice of war, to provide a decent living for every family”

THE GOVERMENT IS NOT GOD!

May God have mercy on his soul (and forgive him for being such a poor example of a Catholic)

I second that.

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

i just can’t feel any remorse for him anymore than i felt for any one who tried to destroy our country and republic.

he was responsible for the death of a young girl and never held responsible for it.

I wish his family my condolences on their loss, they must be suffering. I feel bad for that.

But him .... well, he lived a long time and justice was never served for Mary Jo, and his socialist attacks on our nation and against our servicemen in times of war were unforgivable.

Now he has to deal with god for his sins who will surely be more forgiving than me.

I hope he DID get close to God at the end. He left behind a life of scandals, pro-death legislation, and I had no respect for him, but as a Catholic, I pray he went in peace.

Well,you were the person I posted to but nevertheless I think you have no need to focus on what I focus on or should in your opinion. I don’t mean to be unpleasant,,just I don’t like it when people say what they think I should think about to reflect their opinion.

Lets just call the whole thing off. I will not post to you unless in error and if I do, just ignore me.
