I have survived cancer twice and I don't like Ted Kennedy. It really has nothing to do with his cancer. What he and others are doing to America is disastrous and sinful.

I am sorry to hear of your cancer and continued success.

In other words, he has already had a year since his diagnosis to do some serious soul searching and genuine repentence, and as far as can be seen he hasn't changed his political stances or outlook one bit.

However, as long as he is alive, there's still hope.

Slap a tin hat on me. He was photographed bending over on the boat shortly after brain surgery. One isn’t permitted to bend over after cataract surgery, for pete’s sake. He’s lost no hair. I contend he suffers from Alcoholic Wet Brain seizures.

"To pay for the excessive, extravagent, 'no-holds-bound', 'entire-Eastern-seaboard Tumor Board',
healthcare for us, Senators, Congressmen and our families, the rest of you will
now get single payer, Congressional and White House-controlled,
socialist 'health' care, meaning delay, delay, then euthanasia, suckers.
..... Bring me another Chivas."

Longer than the chick in the lake got.

You mean the gal at Chapaquickdick, that he left in the car to drown.

Why should we believe he even has a tumor, just because "they" said so? He likely just has gout or something.

It's probably just a political lie for propaganda purposes...notably, the sympathy factor in using his name on the American Healthcare Destruction Act.

Not to me he is not. As far as I am concerned, the sooner he gets to where he deserves to be the batter.

Once we have ObamaCare trouble makers like this will be dealt with. When the government says it's time to die, you just better die if you know what's good for you.

BTW, I gotta believe the staff of the Herald was laffin' till they cried when they composed this gawd awful drek. To paraphrase Oscar Wilde, one would have to have a heart of stone not to laugh at the death of Little Nell Teddie.

There were also doubts about the way Kopechne died. Dr. Donald Mills of Edgartown, wrote on the death certificate: "death by drowning". However, Gene Frieh, the undertaker, told reporters that death "was due to suffocation rather than drowning". ... It is assumed that she died from drowning, although her parents filed a petition preventing an autopsy.

The undertaker stated that he removed less than a cup of water from her lungs. He was familiar with drowning victims, being an undertaker in as seaside resort area, and their lungs usually contain quarts of water. He was also surprised that the medical examiner released the body for transportation to Pennsylvania without an autopsy. It was unheard of for an the body of an accident victim to be released without an autopsy.

The real reason he’s lasted this long is that his brain has been pickled for 60 years. All that alcohol is giving the cancer cell fits — they keep getting drunk.

He deprived Mary Jo of her right to medical care...

Nonsense. He performed triage according to government standards of rationing.

“The REAL inspiration here is the American Medical Care that saved his life. Ironically, he wants to destroy it... “

Great point..
