“…minimal influence over say the last 40 years.” Sorry, but In April 2006, Kennedy was selected by Time as one of “America's 10 Best Senators”. (Source Wikipedia)

And also from Wikipedia, “Kennedy was a leading member of the bipartisan team that wrote the controversial No Child Left Behind Act of 2001”, which I've had personal experience with and was a decent piece of legislation, in spite of the bad press it gets. Please don't minimize the influence Sen. Kennedy has.

I would caution any conservatives making snide remarks. When Heston and Falwell passed away, certain liberal elements made some nasty comments, and conservatives were rightly annoyed. While I know that many people find certain aspects of Teddy's life…disagreeable. We should not judge, and any Christians in particular should pray for him and not point fingers at another's sin, when in our hearts we are just as sinful.

And I'm not saying that anyone has been snide.

my initial post was in response to Madmike's referral to the Kennedy Clan; twice. As a group, compared to the family influence up through the 60's, yes, lots of influence. Teddy by himself, sure. but not the same as Dad, Jack, Bobby. Didn't Ted give us HIPPA as well as supporting No Child Left Behind? Don't get me wrong, he has been a good public servant.

Hell if it wasn't his stupidity that got her killed ….. he had a choice not to drive also. He got drunk and chose to drive …. he not only drove the car into the lake but also left her to drown …. went home and went to sleep without ever trying to get help.

Although I despise Ted Kennedy's politics, I do not despise the man.

I would not wish malignant glioma on anyone; not even Ted Kennedy.

I do not like his politics, his tactics or much of his history but still in all, I have to respect the guy; he is a survivor and indeed a Old Lion of the senate.

In this thread I see much of the “diversity” of Lawrence and many similarities to what that gal did in the ongoing MySpace case.

Ted Kennedy is a good, if misguided man; a product of his time and experience.

That he is so does not justify rooting for the tumour like it was a basketball team and being happy that if he is lucky, he may have a year to go.

How would *YOU* like to know that you have a year to go?

Having lost a family member to glioblastoma, I can attest that it is a terrible diagnosis, and the road ahead for Kennedy is bleak. This begins a long journey of sorrow for his family and friends.

All the frustrated insults, lies, and cheap shots at Senator Kennedy mean even less than the pathetic people who make them.

What matters is that Senator Kennedy, who has many Republican allies including Sam Brownback, Orrin Hatch, and John McCain, has achieved great things in civil rights, labor rights, and human rights legislation. That is the real reason why the wrongheaded right-wing reactionaries hate Kennedy, even as he battles brain cancer. They don't care about the people Kennedy cares about, and they hate those who do.

God speed Senator Kennedy and Senator Obama, whom Kennedy wisely has endorsed to be our next President.

I wondered what I would encounter when I saw this story. Just as did the mind of ReadingSports, my mind, too, wandered back to a story about the passing of the late Charlton Heston posted on April 6, 2008 on this here webiste:

A cut/paste from that thread (if you want to implicate people, then look at the article yourselves):
http://www2.ljworld.com/news/2008/apr/06…

Poster1:
“And the world is better for his passing. Another symbol of NRA arrogance is gone.”

Poster2:
“[Poster1] exemplifies the far left hate fringies often posting on here, but they also are in charge of the democrat party. they run it through the Daily Kos, and moveon.org. Beo shows just what these people are really like. some of them, upon hearing that Nancy Reagan had fallen, wished a painful death on her. some of them wished that Tony Snow's cancer would kill him. these are the bloodthirsty liberals. very angry, very sad to see.”

Then I chimed in with:

” What if Nader or Ted Kennedy suddenly croaked?”

Well, what's going on here, huh? He isn't dead yet, but boy, it sure sounds like some people would be happy about it happening. I'm not going to go back and read everyone's comments, but it seems as though a big deal was made of ReadingSports' 10:32 PM comment. I'm not pointing fingers at anyone, but I am pointing a finger at the obvious. Even the Barack Hussein and anti-abortion crowds found a way to work in their vitriol.

Godot - I, too, am very sorry for your loss.

My mother died from this kind of brain tumor, just after Dick Howser lost his fight. Since I was familiar with his story, I knew that the operation she had to remove the tumor would merely buy a little more time. Her first words after the procedure: “did they get it?” My father had to tell her that they could not get it all. Though she had lost her faith over the years, she made a pilgrimage to a shrine in Canada and endured chemo, only to pass away 6 months later.

I agree with Godot's analogy, that with the rise in the number of people diagnosed this kind of tumor, one should really think about sticking that cell phone right next to their head. There were warnings about that many years ago.

21 May 2008 at 8:46 a.m.

bennyoates (Anonymous) says…

In 1994 Ted Kennedy faced his toughest reelection fight from a strong Republican contender Mitt Romney, who sought help from fellow Mormon and fellow conservative Sen. Orrin Hatch of Utah. Hatch works with Kennedy frequently on legislation and declined to endorse Romney, who eventually lost.

This sort of thing is why the rabid right-wing hates Kennedy. It's not really about Chappaquidick—they believe what they want to believe about that tragedy, and if they want to believe that Kennedy committed murder there, that says everything about them, nothing about Kennedy.

John McCain has sponsored legislation with TK. McCain's a person of dignity and decency, which is why he has spoken on TK's behalf recently. And this is why some on the right are uncomfortable with McCain. He is the true compassionate conservative, and it would have been so much better for the US had he defeated Bush in 2000 for the Presidential nomination. No wonder Rush Limbaugh hates McCain, who was enduring torture while Rush “sat out” the war with his “anal cyst.”

Unfortunately, based on what I see on this board, Rush is a bigger influence on Republicans than John McCain is.

Although the outlook is bleak, there is hope. My grandpa was diagnosed with glioma in March 1980. He was diagnosed after suffering a seizure as well. He underwent radiation and they stopped it from growing. He lived until September 11, 2000 when he died from complications of surgery for a new, more aggressive glioblastoma tumor, but not the tumor itself. He never really came out of the surgery, got a staph infection in his earlobe (very weird), and didn't recover. In some ways, it was a blessing because he didn't have to endure the extreme pain that he surely would have had, had he made a full recovery from the surgery. With Kennedy's access to the best doctors, this may not necessarily be the end, only time knows.

Rather than try to compete with a true professional and a true gentleman, let me give an extended excerpt from David Broder's Washington Post column. Note the strong points about John McCain, who I'm sure would want nothing to do with with the frustrated tantrum-throwers insulting Ted Kennedy on this board:

On issue after issue, but particularly on civil rights, health care, labor law, Vietnam and Iraq, Kennedy has set the direction for his party and mobilized the necessary support.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Even when the cause seemed lost, that bullhorn voice summoned Democrats to battle — and more often than seemed plausible, they achieved at least some of their goals.

He is clearly eager to play that role for Barack Obama, his choice for the nomination. Obama will search far and wide to find another Senate ally as committed and capable.

But it may still be true that McCain would find Kennedy's absence even more of a handicap than would Obama. It is doubtful that anyone could name another Democrat more willing to become a partner for the Republican nominee than Kennedy.

It is not simply that those two have legislated together on health care, immigration, campaign finance and ethics laws. Equally important, Kennedy consistently has searched for compromises that can bring Republican votes — as he did for President Bush on education reform. And at 76, he is far less inclined to seek partisan victories that poison the legislative well.

Truly, there is no one like him.

I remember as a kid when my parents were the local Democrat committeemen and at 8 yrs old, I pedalled around the neighbourhood putting campaign literature in mail boxes for JFK.

You could do that then and the Democrat machine in Wyandotte County was one of the most highly organised in the nation.

I put a double basket on the rear of my Black Phantom to hold all the pamphlets and flyers and really felt that I was important because I was participating in what was a very, very adult process.

There were thousands of kids just like me, scooting around thousands of cities and towns doing the same thing and although in all probability, Nixon actually won, JFK got the office.

Later on when RFK became Attorney General, I idolised him and viewed young Teddy as the down-the-road successor to what we were all certain would become a political dynasty and save the country.

How wrong we were,

Events took away both JFK and Bobby (Still remember exactly where I was when I heard about both killings! In science class for JFK and at Boy's State at KU for Bobby.) and Ted went to Hell in a handbasket, becoming a flaming liberal and what I consider to be a murderer who got a way with it.

Nevertheless, Ted has been returned to office repeatedly by his constituency and has done a lot of good in some areas and I do mean “SOME”; certainly not all good; I disagree with him vehemently on certain issues and that's OK; that's what our political system is about.

Hitherto, I've been fond of referring to him as “Fat Teddy” but I'm not going to do that any more.

I'll continue to disagree with him when appropriate but I won't beat a man when he is down.
