If Kennedy’s funeral is in DC, that would likely mean that Cardinal O’Malley refused to allow a Kennedy propaganda fest in any Church in his archdiocese and that Archbishop Wuerl was willing to do the honors demanded by the Kennedys and other Demonrats. Chris Dodd has no business speaking at a Catholic funeral either.

Let us remember ourselves and comport ourselves with dignity under such circumstances. He is gone and no longer a burr under our collective saddle. We owe it to our Father in Heaven to act as He would have us act in humility and not in some sort of triumph as Mr. Kennedy passes in the way of all flesh. God only knows. His will be done.

As I said Teddy's future is between him and the Heavenly Father. Which I must say more deliberately none of my business. But it is NOT accurate to say 'he' is no longer a burr under our collective saddle. We still have his anointed and hand picked supposed, reincarnation, of his own brother JFK, wee wee'd Bama.

And most definitely yes God's will, will be done regardless of how many Teddy Kennedys there are in this world. I also know that the Heavenly Father is not a respecter of persons and we shall see just how much religious respect old Teddy gets bestowed.

I hope he receives a very WARM welcome where he’s going.

Sorry, his passing gives me no relief from my loathing of the man.

None at all - so far

To their mind, I think, they don’t want to soil their lionizing of their “hero” by devoting any mental energy to us.

Ted’s only Real contribution to the economy,

BIBLE SALES, big, showy expensive Bibles, as the other Socialists POSE with THEM On CAMERA in MEDIA STAGED EVENTS as they hope and pray not for Teddy, but to Snooker them hateful Conservatives again.

No, really. I went also, and it was fun. Lots of one word posts (f word). Not one word about a young, murdered, pregnant woman.

Your welcome

The phrase “Know your enemy” is what drives me to go over there once in a while.

But I sometimes wonder if what is over there is an enemy worth knowing.

Yours is a lovely homepage. May God bless you and yours, not least for your display of the meaning of Christian charity here.

Of course not one word about Mary Jo, they are LIBERAL HATERS over there! Their posts are usually peppered with the F word, nothing new! LOL

All I can say is I sure hope, for Teddy’s sake, that God is merciful. I’ll pray for the Repose of his soul, but I can’t muster any sympathy.

Instead of “win one for the gipper”, it will be “pass health care for Ted”.

Or better yet: Instead of "win one for the gipper," it will be "pass one for the 'swimmer'."

Me too. I just returned from there again myself, and do you know what? We post much funnier stuff than they do. Also, Democrat Underground Googles just above Ducks Unlimited. Now, is that apropos, or not?
