Senator Ted Kennedy has died.

[GL of Sector 2814]

Yeah, but we’re better than DU. Let them dance on graves. We don’t do that here.

Not to quite the same degree, but there are still plenty of people doing a quick two-step here.

“Fine, but one should NEVER dance on someone else’s Grave. “

Really!!??!

Try googling pix of VE and VJ day.

[Gay State Conservative]

I wish that Teddy had lived long enough to see the first of 200 windmills completed off the coast of his beloved Cape Cod.

By now, you can’t GIVE away Dewar’s stock.

Did he get his dying wish? I read that he wanted the law changed regarding how Massachusetts replaces a Senator .

[NautiNurse]

America has lost the quintessential limousine liberal.

[BlueStateBlues]

Did you hear Ted’s last words,

“Get me that crypt above Marilyn”

[Manic_Episode]

Marshal Walter Thibido: "The day they lay you away, what I'll do on your grave won't pass for flowers."

Massachusetts law was changed when Mitt Romney was Governor. Before the Governor could appoint a replacement. The Dems on Beacon Hill changed the law to allow a special election; it is still the law at this time. Now the Dems wish to change the law again, back to a Governor appointment as it was before.

If only there was National Health Care, Teddy might be with us today! /s

God, please ease the pain of his family in this painful time.

Yes, but it being right in Ted Kennedy's backyard was a coincidence? I think insiders were told the end would come within days. That's why the sudden push to change State Law to make sure the Gov does not appoint a Republican, and that's why I think Obama schedule his vacation on Martha's Vineyard. Now I'm not suggesting that's underhanded, just that I think the white house was aware that the end was near and they made their plans around it.

Everyone had known for months that Kennedy could die any time. It was announced a while back that Zero would go to Martha's Vineyard for vacation, they had no way to know the exact week that Kennedy would die.

As far as the change in the state law. The law was changed five years ago to make sure that the governor COULD NOT appoint a replacement (this was to keep Romney from appointing a Republican if Kerry won in 2004). Kennedy wrote a letter last week asking that the law be changed back so the governor can make an appointment, otherwise a special election is held in four and a half months.

LOL, I like you Lori.

[maica]

Kennedy wrote a letter last week...

@@@@@@

Very doubtful. Don’t believe the media/DNC collusion. Kennedy had probably been too seriously ill for weeks to compose a letter. I heard just once that the letter was written last July, and released last week. That makes much more sense.

[GOPsterinMA]

No question about that! The final act of Camelot, where it morphs into Obamalot...

[FromLori]

The way I look at it is he lived 40 years longer then his victom Mary Jo and we would not mourn other killers.

[KansasGirl]

Kennedy wrote a letter last week asking that the law be changed back so the governor can make an appointment

Yeah right. I believe that.

[Genoa]

“I hope Obama doesn’t name the proposed Health Care bill after him and exploit that.”

Gosh, I hope he does. A picture’s worth a thousand words. Just in case anybody still doesn’t get it about what a far-left collectivist takeover is. Great name for it, IMHO.

[wagglebee]

I don’t actually believe he wrote the letter either, but his name was on it as the signer.

[SE Mom]

Exhausting, isn’t it?

It’s not even 9AM and we’ve been bombarded with “The Lion of the Senate” since I woke up at 5.

[jersey117]

Aw, dang. Brace for two solid weeks of TedTV

The best way to solve that dilemma..... is to not watch. There is just no way I could stomach the wall to wall coverage that is about to take place.
