Ted Kennedy was left paralyzed after being hit with a devastating seizure, The ENQUIRER has learned exclusively.

Although he'd been fighting a valiant battle against brain cancer for more than a year, the 77-year-old senator was jolted by a frightening seizure in mid-July that paralyzed the right side of his body and left his speech slurred.

No problem. I’m sure that’s one word Teddy knows how to spell.

I hope he hangs on until Friday so I can “respond” appropriately. ;)

Some one in this shape under Obamacare...would be put out of their misery.

You can't do the type of surgery on the brain plus the radiation and chemo and not have just awful seizures. I expected this...

“that paralyzed the right side of his body and left his speech slurred”

Are they sure he’s not drinking again?

I, uh, y’know, think this is a sad, y’know, day for our, uh, country. Y’know, the greatest natural resources in the world. Y’know. Uh, public service. Y’know. Uh, y’know, continuing that tradition. Y’know. Uh, articulateness. The poor. Y’know.

I am just trying to keep ammo out of the hands of the libs.

You know what? I don't think anybody here really gives a tin turd what the Dems or their parrots/mouthpieces in the MSM think.

Screw them.

I wonder if anyone has counseled Sen. Kennedy on the possibility of assisted suicide to end his suffering and old age? I'm not being mean or vicious; that's in the healthcare bill for the rest of us.

I hate to hear of anyone having serious health problems; even Tedd Kennedy. But I will say that God has a sense of humor if he left Kennedy with only his RIGHT hand to work with.

A man who has done nothing to deserve even the usual, pro forma, conventional courtesies as death draws near.

Thoroughly wicked men, who have murdered millions through corruption, lies, violence, threats, bullying, and their widows who are full accomplices, and their nieces and nephews and sisters who are also full accomplices, similarly deserve none of the usual pro forma condolences.

They are, without any exceptions, pro-abortion, dishonest, wicked people.

And we’re just finding out? Reminds me of the old Soviet Union when one of their “Dear Leaders” caught a “cold.”

Ahem ... cough, cough ... yeah, that’s it, he has the sniffles.

Yes, a most interesting point. I’d like to more about those rules. If he isn’t physically there in Congress to make the vote, how do we know its legitimate? Rhetorical question, I know.

I believe it was the air bubble on the floor in the back seat. (Car was upside down, with the nose lower than the trunk.)

If this is true, I think 0bama has a little blue pill for him and it's not viagra or cialis.

Take a pill, Senator Kennedy and do the right thing for society.

Sorry that you're not well, but, you know, carbon footprints and such make you inconvenient and the truth is, we hope you will change for the better, but your life expectancy divided by the cost of your CO2 output is such that the best recourse for your family is that little blue pill in 0bama's hand.

Not quite. The Obamistas would leave him there to die ~ although some of them say drugs are good for getting over that.

Fur Shur they'd send two or three counselors for that End of Life interview and discussion.

I can imagine what he'd be saying to pukes like that!

What an embarrassment to the Kennedy family name. I think a labotomy is due! (sarcasm)

Daddy Kennedy had doctors perform a lobotomy on his daughter to keep the family image clean of any deformities. (sick family)

"I hope that everyone plays nice.

Why???????

We should show compassion for this treasonous, womanizing waste of protoplasm. The last time this land whale didn't undermine U.S. troops was in the Korean War. He has a lot more deaths to his tally than just poor MaryJo.

Is it that you don't want the liberal trolls to think we're nasty, uncaring people. Too late, they've been preaching that for forty years. It's this thought process that prevents Republicans Senators and Congresscritters from asking tough questions in hearings---"ooooew, we can't ask that, it's not worth bringing truth to light if people think we're mean." The Demonrats have no problem being mean.

Even Jesus knew there was a point where just being nice didn't work. He didn't go into the temple and ask nicely that the moneychangers not defile the temple, he turned over tables.

As far as this slimeball goes, the world would be a better place if Joe had done to him what he did to is sister. Actually, there are many times when Teddy has said things that made me wonder if he had been lobotomized.

The only sad thing about his death will be three or four days of not being able to turn on the TV or radio and not hear him being canonized
