8 AM tomorrow morning, Washington DC time.
LOL :) I knew you would come through.
Sorry Lord, but, about damned time...
This is probably why Feingold said today there would be no healthcare bill before the end of the year. They’ll want to get another Massachusetts senator seated, and that will take a special election.
I can already see the Wellstoning of his funeral....
GET READY FOR IT, FOLKS...
And anyone who tries to say ANYTHING against it will be immediately called “Hateful”.
I can see this trainwreck coming already.
Well, Ted. I can remember you fondly for saying this:
“While the deep concern of a woman bearing an unwanted child merits consideration and sympathy, it is my personal feeling that the legalization of abortion on demand is not in accordance with the value which our civilization places on human life. Wanted or unwanted, I believe that human life, even at its earliest stages, has certain rights which must be recognized the right to be born, the right to love, the right to grow old.
“On the question of the individual’s freedom of choice there are easily available birth-control methods and information which women may employ to prevent or postpone pregnancy. But once life has begun, no matter at what stage of growth, it is my belief that termination should not be decided merely by desire. ...
“When history looks back to this era it should recognize this generation as one which cared about human beings enough to halt the practice of war, to provide a decent living for every family, and to fulfill its responsibility to its children from the very moment of conception.”

There was something fishy about needing this health care reformation done by August. Now I know why, and so socialize health care did NOT get done under the socialist master himself. I can’t wait to see the big religious ceremonies thrown in this guy’s supposed honor.
He’s only dead. He can still vote.
bump
Are the mass media preparing to torture us with weeks upon weeks of eulogies and encomiums a la Michael Jackson to the person whose virtual last official act was to help author a socialist health care plan that would deprive tens of millions of senior citizens of the quality health care he undoubtedly received during his last months of life?
May God’s will be done.....
How long before he’s made a saint?
Now, can I have his boat?
may I also say ... nothing
Yes.

TED's NEW LAKE OF FIRE BATH TUB
Prayers for Mary Jo....
Well... crap!
Now every damned news outlet will bombard us for several days with how “great” a person Ted was, while ignoring all of his criminal actions... just as they did his older brothers JFK and RFK.
Guess I’ll have to leave the TV off for several days and do something constructive like sorting my sock drawer.
God bless Mary Jo Kopechne.
Thanks for the reminder of how truly despicable Ted Kennedy could be.
Prayers for those of his kin still in the realm of the living. Death is a salutary reminder to all of us, without exception, of our ultimate pay day.
Leftists who don't really care about justice or human values, of course.
