The death of Sen. Edward Kennedy quickly became a rallying cry for Congress to pass health care overhaul legislation.

it was prolly ted or edward or whateverthehellhis name was [hic] idea to use his corpse as one last big ‘fu’ to the nation...
It’s always struck me as funny how a “civilized debate” with ‘Rats on an issue involves capitulating to their demands...sad thing is, I fear the ‘pubbies will be beaten over the head with Fat Teddy’s death until they sign on with passing this abomination of a piece of legislation...
Like the man says: "Never let a casket go to waste."
This is a quote from KKK Byrd - the interpretation? Do it the dem way and shut the eff up...
I was just wondering a couple things???
When Teddy stands before the Judgment seat of Christ, will he be addressed as Senator?
Will the Lord ask Teddy this?.....Explain to me again your position on killing my unborn children?
Why did you think I wanted my name banned from the Public square?
What made you think that I did not want my children to learn about MY WORD in schools??
No Teddy a call to Quorum will not buy you any time here.
Hey, for the record I hope somehow Teddy makes it....God Be Merciful to me a sinner as well!!!!
Tuck one of these in your briefcase:

My son built one, they’re great fun. We took his into Best Buy and turned off all the TVs, and it always goes on trips with us.
The ghoulish Dhimmis are at in again. Never let a crisis or a death go to waste. That’s their motto. Better yet, death is their cause and death is their motto.
Question: Who would have guessed that Liberal Democrats and the mainstream media would use the death of one of their heroes as a cheesy political stunt in order to pass unpopular legislation?
Answer: Everyone!
What a scumbag. Pisses me off every time I see it.
Rename the bill the Kennedy-Stalin Health Plan.
I wouldn't be a bit surprised if Rahm "Little Evil" Emanuel doesn't have a team of forgers working on such a document right now.
I was thinking maybe call it Wellstone II.
“under this bill Kennedy would never have received the specialized treatment he did”
This is speculative and unprovable. Kennedy qualified for both Medicare and his federal employees’ health benefits plan, but we don’t know whether one or both paid for his surgery at Duke. What we do know is that Kennedy could afford the best care money could buy: he could have gone anywhere in the world for surgery, yet he did NOT end up in Canada, Britain, France or any of the other European health systems that purportedly are vastly superior to the U.S. in quality. Nor, for that matter, did he get it done at government-run Bethesda Naval Hospital (even though as a Senator he was entitled to completely free care there).
Instead, he freely chose to get his care from a PRIVATE U.S. hospital, the very same hospital that treated Tom Daschle’s brother even though he too could have afforded the best care money could buy anywhere in the world (and presumably would not have hesitated to take his brother’s advice on where to go given that he’d written a book on the U.S. healthcare system and allegedly was an expert about it).
Thus, notwithstanding all the bad-mouthing of the U.S. health care system done by Kennedy and Daschle, when push came to shove and family health was concerned, their actions spoke way louder than their words.
So, let me get this straight.
They are whoring his death to pass their legislation?
That is just reprobate.
