All in all, no matter how this legislation ends up in terms of content or fate, it’s a towering pile of doo-doo and it will be decided in the Senate. Why not name it for Senator Kennedy? Either way, pass or fail, the bill symbolizes everything that Senator Kennedy represented.
It should also be noted that Senator Kennedy, like all fabulously wealthy people, had nothing to gain or lose with this legislation. This law, should it pass, will be for the great unwashed masses subjected to government-run health care because their businesses will save money with the public option. Senators, as the Democrats voted in committee, will still get their own special plan.
Senator Kennedy would not have been beholden to his namesake legislation. He would still have gone to the best hospitals for care — maybe on some Caribbean island at some point as doctors and innovative health care providers look for cheaper, less regulated ways to deliver stellar care. No one likes to be sick and in the hospital now. It would be abominably insulting for a bigwig to be a number in a line in a hallway in a crumbling hospital with an imported doctor, waiting for eight hours to eight days. A rich person can go to prison for that kind of care today. Under KennedyCare, he would get on a private jet and go find the care he’s accustomed to receiving.

Dead alive? What does it matter? Why not name this travesty after Nixon—his amoral socialist principles are alive and well in the beltway.
The American Citizens will finally become “subjects”. If this gets passed we will no longer deserve to be called citizens.
Here is the bottom line: You WILL die.
There is no escaping it.
More appropriately “KennedyDidntCare”
He was always about himself. To think that he gave a rat’s behind about anyone else is beyond naivete
"Too little,Too late, If at all"
As well as Pelosi and the other Botox-Brain Lifestyle Tyrant Controllers in Congress.
The power has truly gone to all their heads. Voting in legislation is one thing; their believing they are God Almighty and voting for the power of life and death over us is quite another matter altogether.
Regardless of all the above positive posts [;-)], both are/were Major Charlie Foxtrots.
In memory of Ted Kennedy , to the tune of “Give me that old time Religion.”
Give me that Old Time Health Care.
Give me that old time health care
Give me that old time health care,
Give me that old time health care,
it’s good enough for me.
It was good enough for Teddy.
It was good enough for Teddy.
It was good enough for Teddy.
And it’s good enough for me.
Refrain
Makes me love everybody.
Makes me love everybody.
Makes me love everybody.
And it’s good enough for me.
Refrain
It has saved our fathers.
It has saved our fathers.
It has saved our fathers.
And it’s good enough for me.
Refrain
It will do when I am dying.
It will do when I am dying.
It will do when I am dying.
And it’s good enough for me.
Refrain
It will take us all to heaven.
It will take us all to heaven.
It will take us all to heaven.
And it’s good enough for me.

Geez, you (and the rest of the posters on this thread) either have no sense of humor or you are just unfamiliar with the old time religion.
Come on, my rendition of “Give me that Old Time Religion” is funny. The words fit so perfectly. How could you not be amused?
I liked it.
And I don’t like religion...I prefer a relationship...it’s a long story to tell the difference, but suffice it to say I liked the parody.
