Well, give the Old SOB his due, he fought for what he believed in.

No kidding. That's one example that I wish Capitol Hill Republicans would follow.

I am not sure what to say.

My mother, a lady of consumate class, told me if I could not say anything nice about someone, say nothing. Although I have often (and sometimes to my regret) failed to follow her advice, this time I think I will...

NOT!!! (Sorry, mom!)

There is hope for the Republic yet! Another wretched, miserable kneecrawling, pukelicking, liberal pusbag goes to meet his maker--and not a second too soon! I hope Mary Jo greets the philandering pig at the gates and ships his rotten posterior where I believe it belongs. Maybe that'll sweat some of the fat off his arse!

The future grows brighter without this consumate deal maker around to teach the youth of America how to sell their Country, their Constitition, their employees, their constituents, their progeny down the river to socialist slavery without batting an eye, uttering a decipherable sylable, or taking the blame for the results.

America should sleep better tonight knowing another one is soon to be in the dirt.

RIP Kennedy

You know, I bet Kennedy was too sick in the last few days to say anything. I wonder if he really made that request to change the law or if it is another dirty trick of the dimwits. If so; they are lower than low.

I am filled with regret upon hearing this. Regret that Ted Kennedy never faced justice in his lifetime for what he did to poor Mary Jo. Regret that he did so much damage to this country during his lifetime.

Some say it is wrong to speak ill of the dead. I say it is a greater wrong to speak falsehoods of the dead. We should not say that a deceased man was a great man if he was not.

I believe I have balanced respect and honesty well enough in this post. Certainly, every comment on DU and Kos about Ronald Reagan’s death was far more vile and hate-filled than anything I said.

It’s going to be 100 times worse than the Wellstone funeral. I can just see Obama now. “If you don’t support socialist health care, you’re spitting on Ted Kennedy’s grave! Let’s pass this for Teddy! Yes we can! Hope and change!”

I wish his poor family would cease to be a burden on the country.

" “If you don’t support socialist health care, you’re spitting on Ted Kennedy’s grave!"

It is a testament to the class and restraint of the bulk of the American Populace that there's not a line forming already to do just that.

I have no kind words for the man in life or in death. A traitor and a coward.

He had mind cancer for most of his life.

I just saw the news story about 45 minutes ago. First thing that I thought of was how mercy is measured,the same mercy that he had for the unborn and the women who believed abortion was nothing? My second was if Mr. Kennedy under the health care of Obama and the dems, would that government health care allowed him to have that brain surgery at his age and his state of health. I really believe if we are forced to have government health care then all civil servants should also be forced to have it. Only trouble is politicians do not see themselves as servants of the people, they believe they are royal and we the people should just shut up. I pray for God’s mercy for Mr. Kennedy because God is great and merciful.

Yeah, Reid and Pelosi’s statements on his death both included how healthcare reform has been his lifelong dream, blah, blah, blah, and the dream will never die said Reid, and Pelosi said his dream will be real this year...

“Greetings, my fellow Americans. This is President Barack Obama speaking. I have here a letter written (cough cough) by my recently deceased friend, Ted Kennedy. In it, he states that his dying wish was for America to become a Marxist state, with me as President-for-Life. Please, let us honor a dying man’s final wish.”

how many days will his death be all over tv, ugh...

Pelosi and Reid should be #2 and #3 in the ‘it happens in three’s’, that would be awesome!
