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.

over and over and over and over and over ad nauseam
[Why is Kennedy being buried at Arlington?]
Cause dumping his carcass in the Chappaquiddick channel was a health hazard? Just a guess.
AH in Cathoic religion we give to anybody actually I think Kennedy family pay off Cathoic church long time ago
RE: Obama giving the eulogy, I have to quote my 2 year old grandson, when he sees something repugnant....”EWWWWWW, YUCK!”
You’d think they’d have given up licking Caesar’s boots a long time ago.
It was only two years ago that Kennedy introduced Obama as “Osamma”. He really didn’t know who he was. Now they are brothers. Jeesch.
Your grandson speaks eloquently with few words.
You are right, it was my mistake.
Matthews called him the last Kennedy brother.
Trent Lott couldn’t even joke about someone with a questionable past, but the O-man can give credibility to a person who deliberately let somebody die. Not to mention his numerous other escapades that should never be condoned. O should have let someone else do the eulogy and just attended and kept his mouth shut. But then he wouldn’t be getting maximum exposure, would he.
The Dems are so blatently hypocritical. Either that, or their pool of candidates is filled with people without much integrity.
The Mafioso never attended Mass, but made their families go.
“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?”
Bears repeating.
Wanna bet MaBelle wears a Jackie O type hat, pearls, heels BUT the arms will be exposed.
I geuss they must have misplaced Robert Bork’s phone number.
I’m no friend of Teddy, but good grief....he gets a lightweight attention whore to MC his funeral? What a way to go.
I was wondering the same thing. I don't think that Ted Kennedy was ever in the military.
I’ve been watching Olberman. The solemnity cracks me up.
‘You are right, it was my mistake.’
No biggie. Matthews was way off base calling Zero a Kennedy brother in the first place. Zero is a guy that JFK would have despised. Bobby would have had Zero wiretapped. Ain’t no way they’d feel any family ties with the idiot in the White House.
he is entitled as a member of the Senate
