Sen. Edward Moore Kennedy, the youngest Kennedy brother who was left to head the family's political dynasty after his brothers President John F. Kennedy and Sen. Robert F. Kennedy were assassinated, has died at age 77.

His debt has been paid today.
Another Wellstone funeral Dem pep rally? And/or Obama using Kennedy's death to advance the atrocious Health Care Bill.
Let me just say

And that’s all I have to say.
We've got to resist the coming Obamacare counterattack with all our might. Liberals will be using Ted Kennedy's corpse as a battering ram to try to beat down the doors of resistance.
That’s the idea.
Eunice was alright. Joe, Jr. died on a WWII combat mission. John's term as President was too short to really know what he would have done (although I suspect he wouldn't recognize today's Democrat/communist party). Same with Robert, although he was certainly on board the anti-war movement with Walter Cronkite and the college kids. I always suspected that John, Jr. was a conservative.
Other than them, I could spit on the rest, or pee on their graves, whatever....
Prayers for his family. I’ll refrain from saying anything else, except to say that I’m glad God is the one who judges us in the end — he will be fair and just as no court on Earth could ever be.
That’d make a good but tasteless political cartoon.
I think that we can certainly count on that. I wonder how long they will wait to try to use his death to their advantage.
Just read the news. My RIP message to Teddy would have been ‘adios, amigo’, but since he cheated on his f$&@ing Spanish exam, he probably wouldn’t know what I was talking about...
I don’t have anything good to say about him, so I won’t say much.
He worked to do lots of harm to our country during his time in the Senate. I’m sure those that knew him personally would say he was a good guy.....
Sen. Edward Kennedy Smears the Nation
“On March 19, 2004, President Bush asked: ‘Who would prefer that Saddam’s torture chambers still be open?’ Shamefully, we now learn that Saddam’s torture chambers reopened under new management U.S. management.”
A speech on the Senate floor, May 10, 2004.
More like Lenin, if history is a guide...
As much as this man disgusted me, I do not celebrate his death with shouts of glee. While he was reviled by many of us who know his “colorful” history, he has family who are suffering the loss of another member of their family. I just don’t relish the non stop coverage nor the coverage this will give 0bama and the health care issues etc that have so much motivation by the citizens now.
I’m guessing the liberal ‘main stream media’ won’t be nearly as rude to Kennedy as they were to Tony Snow, eh?
was pro-life in ‘71. Was being the key word here huh...Al Gore was also pro life at one time and Hillary Clinton was a Republican (Goldwater). So how do people become so corrupt that they will give up their souls?
You don’t suppose there will be some waiver for him to lie in state in the Rotunda?
