Is Vicki Kennedy ready to succeed? By Gayle Fee and Laura Raposa Friday, February 20, 2009 - Updated 1m ago

Sen. Ted Kennedy, wintering in an undisclosed location in Florida, may never return to the Senate, friends say, as his battle with brain cancer enters its final rounds.

“He’s someplace sunny, near the water, where he can rest and sail,” said a pal of the senior senator. “Time is of the essence. It’s very sad.”

He’s someplace sunny, near the water, where he can contemplate Mary Jo Kopeckne's last hours gasping for air.

I personally don’t care what happens to him. It’ll happen to all of us. And in the words of Clint Eastwood, “Buzzard’s gotta eat, same as the worm.”

Good point. It’s pathetic to see how ignorant college grads are now.

Best kennedy quote I’ve read, copied and repasted here.

“I hope he’s okay. Also I hope that girl he left dying in the lake is okay too.”

...and he will wake up to: “I never knew you. Away from me, you evildoer!” — Matthew 7:23

I pray not. My prayer is that Ted Kennedy will receive Christ's forgiveness for his sins, just as I have for mine. We are all sinners. Some saved by grace, others not, but only because they have refused it. I pray that Ted will receive Christ's forgiveness and salvation before it's too late.

Then he will hear, "Well done, thou good and faithful servant" -- not based on his actions, mind you, but on Christ's actions on his behalf.

Here in Tennessee, the “entitled parasites” haven’t quite taken over to the point where nobody knows how to do anything (like raise a bit of grub) besides suck at the taxpayers’ poor old teats. However, the Alinskyites in Washington and elsewhere almost have it ruined for the rest of us everywhere. (If Alaska wasn’t so cold, I think we might consider moving there where Obama’s attention span has waxed pretty cold.) For now, Tennessee is still fairly sane. Fairly, I think, until I see Boss Hogg’s face on the news again.

I totally agree. I was really commenting on the fruits of Teddy’s life that we see today. I know I am not the judge, and that it is not too late.

Lots of good folks in Tennessee. Who is ‘Boss Hogg’ though?

Yeah, makes you wonder, don’t it? Depends, I guess, on if it will be known whether or not he repented before he died.

Boss Hogg (Jimmy Naifeh) D. SoH, Still hanging onto a lot of power due to the RINOs in the Legislature joining with the Democrats to wheel and deal. (The Republicans just took over the Legislature for the first time since the Civil War, but just barely - and that’s all the Democrats need - a few RINOs.)

Yikes...he sounds just dreadful! I do watch your Senator...Mr. Corker with great interest however. Not sure I trust him to act in anyone’s interest but his own...yet.

Perhaps..he can be broken to ride conservative...or else culled from the herd?

(grin)

As far as I know, Corker is a conservative. One of the Ford liberal Democrats ran against him. The Ford machine has hopefully about run its course in a good part of Tennessee.

So since no one has a chance of beating a Kennedy in the Soviet State of Taxachusetts, let’s nominate Mary Jo to run posthumously in the next election. It’s pretty sickening, but I think it would get the point across.

Hmm. I think that Uncle Teddy has a separate box, sort of like Bill Clinton’s head box, that he has put Mary Jo and others inside and locked and thrown away the key. I really think that the Kennedys consider themselves as God’s special gift to us and they can do no wrong. Rose raised them a special dynasty and Taxachusetts is Kennedy brainwashed. I call it the “Golden Rear End Syndrome”, and I think it’s catching. The Washington “public service” for a lifetime career with lots of goodies is our big, I suppose,unsolvable problem. Too much inbreeding.

The Swimmer never did have any class. If he did, he would have already resigned his senate seat instead of waiting until they carry him out in a box. Instead, he’s just the latest in a long string of poster boys for term limits.


Yep. That’s why I can feel nothing but hatred for this POS. He’s dtermined to continue giving us the finger until the day he dies.
