U.S. President Barack Obama delivered a letter from Senator Edward Kennedy to Pope Benedict on Friday and asked the Roman Catholic pontiff to pray for the senator, who is suffering from an incurable brain tumor.
Deputy National Security Adviser Denis McDonough said the Pope and the president concluded their half-hour meeting with a discussion about Kennedy, whose brother John F. Kennedy was the first Roman Catholic president of the United States.
"The president delivered a letter from Senator Kennedy to the Holy Father. He also asked that the Holy Father pray for ... Kennedy, who as we all know is ill," McDonough told reporters on Air Force One en route from Rome to Ghana.

"The contents of the letter were not known to anybody that I know of except Senator Kennedy," Gibbs said when asked about the letter.

So you think it’s a letter of apology?
Teddy must have caught a strong whiff of fire and brimstone recently
No doubt expressing regret for letting a woman drown in his car.
Ain’t gonna work, Uncle Teddy.
The Pope can pray for you, but you have to atone for your own sins. That requires confession and penance.
Murder is a mortal sin.
So 0bama is Teddy’s errand boy now?
The note said, “You are standing on my oxygen line!”
Maybe the reason Kennedy has a tumor is because of his support of abortion.
I think it's a little too late for that. There isn't a prayer rug thick enough to help old Ted.
Inviting the Pope to a swim party?
Sorry Teddy no matter what Bill Clinton says you can’t “buy” a pardon from the Pope. No “Kennedy” old boy network connections into Heaven.
Was the letter written on the back of a Scotch Label?
Another Kennedy asking the church for indulgences?
Whoda thunk it?
What does he want? Absolution from MURDER?
Imagine what his deathbed confession will be like.
Maybe he thinks the Pope will pass it along.
> Was the letter written on the back of a Scotch Label?
LMAO!
