To change the way all of us live and die for selfish short term political gain by invoking a departed liberal hero is to lose the confidence of Americans.
Grief at the passing of Senator Kennedy has turned into raw political opportunism. Liberal Democrats, and their twittering mainstream media acolytes, are posing a loaded question which for them suggests its own answer: What would Teddy do about health care?
Fans or not fans-- we owe the Senator acknowledgment for a lifetime of service.
But the debt ends there.
We have seen a month of the true American Congress-- the town hall. America has spoken out--all kinds of people, from all the political parties turned out to speak out against the president's Big GovCare. Sadly, so many Democratic members of Congress chose to hide out and cower behind Web casts and phone calls rather than look into the faces of their constituents and see the anxiety of those they serve.
It was an August where dissent was demonized and some Americans were convicted in the media for merely gathering facts. They were labelled fear mongers. They were scandalized as evil-doers and members of a "mob."

Screw “Pass the bill for Teddy!” He got what he wanted during his life a LOT more than most people. Let’s deny him what he wants for a change.
It’d be nice if Fox and Friends would send Kilmeade to Siberia and have Peter Johnson as a regular.
May Teddy burn/roast/sautee/flambe/ in HELL!
The bastard deserves it. Screw the liberals!!
WWTD? (what would teddy do)?
Drown the helpless. Drink for success.
Not someone I would consider following for my well being.
Buy more booze?
Nope, sorry. What service? Destroying the reputation of one of the finest legal minds the country has produced (Robert Borkh - read some of his opinions if you need a refreshing mix of intellect and common sense)? Enabling the murder of millions of unborn children? Spending MY money to ease his guilty conscience while his own funds grew safely off-shore? WHAT SERVICE?
algore invented the internet....ted kennedy invented self service.
No one owes Ted Kennedy a damn thing. He earned no respect in his lifetime and he won’t get it from me because he died. Everybody does that sooner or later. The ones who did it “much sooner” are those who Ted’s relentless support for the barbaric sacrament of abortion didn’t allow for them even to be born. I think the media and the Dems are way behind the times on this idea that they can sell this with another “sainted Kennedy”, though. The days of the Big 3 networks would have let them get away with this, but those days are long over - and they’re too stupid to figure that out.
