“Insults are unhelpful and inappropriate right now. Every one of us falls short of deserving God’s grace.”

However, if one were to select someone to be the butt pf unhelpful and inappropriate remarks, you have to admit that Teddy Kennedy would be a good choice.

>>> ABC network is reporting live.
>>> CNN, FoxNews, MSNBC, CBS and NBC are asleep at the wheel.

bs... its a perk/reward for being the most openly bias news outlet. (and probably biggest contributor)

I guess nobody will find out about it till tomorrow when they turn on FOX

America has lost the quintessential Democrat.

I bare him no ill will in terms of where he’s going next, but looks like I’ll be avoiding all Television news for the next several weeks...
The MSM is going to canonize guy like none other.

"I do hope that he made a contrite confession, and that his soul was saved."

I understand your comment. What ticks me off is that this POS was given a chance to prepare himself for death, and to request forgiveness of the Lord prior to his passing. He also died surrounded by his family. Mary Jo never had the chance to do the same.

Fine, but one should NEVER dance on someone else’s Grave. Just one man’s opinion.

Ahhhh... he will be in front of some judgment-seat thing just long enough to see her, and have a one to one with the Most High - then it is off to ...

where ever...

may worms spoil his dirt nap.

Please, let’s show more class than the Kos Kids, The DUmp, Moron.Org, ACORN, SEIU or HuffandBlow would if one of our leaders passed away. Don’t give them ammunition.

Right...like the left will restrain itself whenever a conservative, especially a CHRISTIAN conservative passes away, like Jerry Falwell, and hateful, vile rhetoric that DU & Kos, expressed about that. Nothing I have seen here even approaches that the leftist level of hatred when a Christian conservative passes away.

This is the way Camelot ends.

Not with a bang but a whimper.

Kennedy’s smear of Judge Bork on the US Senate floor:

“Robert Bork’s America is a land in which women would be forced into back-alley abortions, blacks would sit at segregated lunch counters, rogue police could break down citizens’ doors in midnight raids, schoolchildren could not be taught about evolution, writers and artists could be censored at the whim of the Government, and the doors of the Federal courts would be shut on the fingers of millions of citizens for whom the judiciary is — and is often the only — protector of the individual rights that are the heart of our democracy....”

I despise Ted Kennedy.
He is one of the worst Americans ever to serve in public office.
I agree with your sentiments, entirely.
However, it is not my place to judge.

Kennedy, I fear, is in a very warm place right now.

But, it is not my place to damn him to that place.

I believe a more appropriate injunction in this case is: “Let the dead bury their dead.”
