President Barack Obama will deliver a eulogy at US Senator Edward M. Kennedy's funeral Mass on Saturday, a White House official has told the Globe.
Kennedy's funeral will be held at a time yet to be determined Saturday morning at The Basilica of Our Lady of Perpetual Help in the Mission Hill section of Boston. Commonly known as the Mission Church, the 1,450-seat basilica on Tremont Street was built in the 1870s. Kennedy prayed there in 2003 while his daughter, Kara, was being treated for lung cancer.

If there is any consolation, I don’t believe EWTN will be broadcasting this heretic’s funeral.

Not to flame our Catholic Freepers in any way, but can someone explain to me why he is evidently receiving a funeral mass? How can be possibly be in communion with the teachings of the church given his known political positions and votes on abortion? Would he have had to repent on his deathbed?
Christ is not willing that anyone, even Ted Kennedy, should perish, but what is the position of the church on this?

Obama probably thinks this will help his sagging poll numbers.
