I have strong Irish heritage.
I am Catholic.

Ted Kennedy is and was a coward and a disgrace.

He deserves as many tears as were shed for Saddam Hussein or an other coward and murderer.

I do hope that he made a contrite confession, and that his soul was saved. It is not my intent to judge, it is my intent to distance myself from this horrible example, this man who killed Mary Jo!

I certainly hope he was administered the Last Rites, and that he made his last Confession.

More importantly, I Pray that the Lord forgives him his Sins against Humanity...’cause I don’t.

Well, give the Old SOB his due, he fought for what he believed in. I hope Obama doesn’t name the proposed Health Care bill after him and exploit that.

In the meantime, best of wishes for his family. RIP.

Ahhh.... what to say.

He fought for what he believed in. He loved his country and wore its uniform. He was an enemy of my vision of what American should be, but an honest enemy.

God rest his soul, and may his foolish political beliefs be buried along with him.

Not nice....but, not unwarranted. I don’t enjoy the passing of others, but I do have a tough time believing that the last thing that he did was to forge (no pun intended) a letter pertaining to Health Care reform....

RIP Teddy...

Now the left will be even more adamant about the healthcare bill. Gotta pass it you know, because it was Senator Kennedy’s baby. Sympathy will be flowing big time.

Many in this nation will mourn.

At the risk of sounding heartless....I'm moving on as usual.

“It is appointed onto man once to die, but after this the judgement”. Ted Kennedy, responsible for the deaths of millions of babies and of Mary Jo Kopechne will now face the righteous eternal judgement from God the Father. Ted Kennedy showed no mercy to aborted babies or to Mary Jo Kopechne. He will give an account to a Holy God for his deeds, as we all will some day.

What are the odds for a State Funeral - he’s a given to lay in repose, but a State Funeral?

ABC network is reporting live.

CNN, FoxNews, MSNBC, CBS and NBC are asleep at the wheel.
