The Day in 100 Seconds: Remembering Ted Kennedy

[frostwolf1]

Man, so many deleted comments here. Too many retards sticking their foot in their mouth about a man's passing, I'm guessing.

[frostwolf1]

I hope this is satire, I'd hate to think God sent you as his spokesman...

[discountBush]

Wow, dude, you're a one-man pogrom. If you were funny, you'd be a laugh-riot. But you're not funny and your hate is clearly misplaced.

[darlena1956]

Is he still dead?

[smithandrewj]

@ElliotHeath100 He made minor mistakes

[discountBush]

Mary Jo Kopechne was a devout Christian. Forgiveness, redemption, and salvation were her highest ideals. She would never laugh at the death of anyone. You defile her memory by entertaining such hateful notions about her.

[Robertjcksn40]

Rest in Piss commi piece of shit. I bet the NRA is loving this. Maybe you liberals should look up his soviet/communist connections, oh wait that will make you love him more.

[blueangelfish1]

Creepy, creepy, creepy.

Can you be anymore angry? Me thinks someone needs to get laid. :)

[Robertjcksn40]

You know whats hilarious? It's always the people that say "You need to get laid, ect" that are the insecure people who use reflection because the most they can get is their hand and KY jelly. I aint worried about my sex life, perhaps you are.

[cals0502]

1:29 Yeah Liberty and Freedom is now dying in us because of Ted Kennedy

[WWWoDMOCRATSoORG]

democratz daht org

[Wisegeorge]

I've never ever fucked up in my life and I never ever will and I want you other fuck ups to say the same about yourself. Yeah, we are all fucked up but some people try to make amends while most people don't.

[JenniLitton]

"Let he who is without sin, cast the first stone." I have two special needs children and had it not been for Ted Kennedy writing and passing the Federal Disabilities Act of 1973, making way for special education programs all over the country, I shudder to think where they might have ended up. He was an advocate for women, people of color, the poor, the downtrodden, and disabled people, yet you still condemn him for one accident, from 50 years ago, when he has saved so many lives since. 4 shame

[iazh]

please don't insult him. to americans, he is like lenin, lol.

[stanleythughes]

lets hope we do the same for Charles Manson. At least Charles didn't kill anyone

[physivic]

wow. i'm usually okay with jerks, and I offer help, here and on other fora. this comment, and those from your like, this week, will be found out for the fools that you are. what an awful thing to say. this man is only as indefensible as any other sinner, but you've likened him to a sociopath. go back to school if you want to join the world.

[stanleythughes]

very few people have particpated in a rape as Ted did nor have they mudered a young woman. If he had done his time in jail people might respect him. But honesty is the first step, something this man was totally lacking in.

[ksol1460]

Even my conservative grandma used to write to him. So did I, and once he wrote back personally, not just a form letter! KTJ

[sailfished]

How about this for a proposal for Teddy-care- all treatments are delayed until 10 hours after your death------ Just like Mary Jo Kopechne

[mike50333]

Would you please let it go already?

[whoo689]

I wonder how long the Left and the media are gonna fawn over Kennedy, sorta like how the Right got all teary-eyed when Reagan died and wouldn't stop talking about him for about 2 weeks straight.

[greatbroad]

@ whoo689

Ha, ha, ha, ha, 5 comments running straight, and you complain about other people talking about him?

[whoo689]

Of course, the funny thing about death is that it has a strange way of bringing people together and making them "see" things about a person they never really thought about before. A person who was a total douchebag or a nobody suddenly becomes a hero to all when he's dead. It's shameful and downright silly.

Besides, how the fuck does one get the nickname "Ted" from Edward? I understand Bill from Wililam, sort of, and Jack from John, but Ted from Ed? That's just adding one consonant! christ

[ksol1460]

Never try to understand traditional nicknames. There are many weirder ones than Ed -> Ted.

[whoo689]

Oh, shut up, Harry Reid. No one gives a fuck what you say anymore, you dickless wonder. "He made more Americans proud of our country." what?? Ook... I didn't realize an angry far left Senator from Massachusetts was needed to restore Americans' patriotism. I thought patriotism was supposed to come naturally.

See how one-sided this is? All the most liberal folks are praising him and making such a huge deal out of a guy who's really been worth nothing for the last 20+ years.

[whoo689]

"He restored my sense of idealism." Yeah, I think you should admit less to being a stupid utopian and be more of a realist. Idealism is idiotic. You very rarely achieve what you're idealistic about, so it's pointless. All idealism does is give you a warm tingly feeling inside.

[whoo689]

I'm sorry, president Obama, Carter, and Reid, but I DON'T give a flying fuck about Ted Kennedy, to be honest. And I don't think most Americans really care, either. So blow me and get back to work.

[EmperorKagato]

@whoo689 You should google Ted Kennedy some time. You at least owe this man some respect for his work in 40+ years in congress.

[jones0674]

It's sad when there's a death...

But Im unable to respect ANYONE who uses their last name as royalty to get out of manslaughter...It took Teddy 9 HOURS to turn himself in for the drunk driving accident which caused the poor womans death...the ONLY reason Teddy turned himself in is for the fact HIS car was found at the scene of the crime..

The Kennedy's have been known for womanizing, drugs and alcohol...and one death...BUT maybe 2 with Marilyn Monroe!!

[mclev]

How did i know this boar would be filled with right-wingers who just couldn't wait to piss on his grave? Is there such a thing as a Republican who isn't an asshole?

[llshamelessll]

another globalist dies...no loss

[MVX12]

"When he shall die take him and cut him out into stars and he shall make the face of heaven so fine that all the world will be in love with night and pay no worship to the garish sun." Shakespeare

RIP Edward Kennedy

[YoungBudd]

R.I.P. to a brilliant man, Ted Kennedy.

[tycho556]

might as well be remembering darth vader

[SquallCloud]

:'(

Alright Progressives let's get to work! If we want to honor him let's do it by following his lead.

[appatel]

Our Patriarch Liberal Lion proudly went to rest.

Let keep "Our Family" traditions alive.

[mrltavern]

3 words for Ted Kennedy: Mary Jo Kopechne.

[MelanieLouM]

Nine words for Ted Kennedy: FUCK YOU LYING, MURDERING BASTARD! SEE YOU IN HELL! ^_^

[StormyWeather21]

your a twat. who did he murder, what the hell are you talking about? fucking bitch...

[MelanieLouM]

...a young woman named Mary Jo...go look it up...how old are you anyway? >:(

[LegendOfSarahPalin]

Murder is when you kill someone with malice of forethought. Ted was drunk and high, and he got into an accident which caused MJK's death. That's manslaughter, not murder. It was a terrible mistake, not a planned killing.

Your comment sna behavior here are indecent and vile. You should be ashamed, but I sincerely doubt you lack the ability of self-reflection.

[MelanieLouM]

Are you for real??? Please tell Mary Jo's family that Teddy boy didn't murder her, he just manslaughtered her...that it was all a mistake because he was drunk! >:(

[SabuPtolemy]

How dare you, you two-bit GOPher twat!

Can't you keep your hatred to yourself at least until the man has been put to rest?

I guess, you already know that you're going to hell but don't expect to see Ted Kennedy there.

[MelanieLouM]

Hey...go fuck yourself! ^_^

[nadreev]

Just as Legend says,

You are indecent and vile.

[neobeetle]

If you have a flagpole, please set it to half stat.

Thank you Sen. Kennedy (1932 -2009)

[BigPurple121]

should have been a 120second day

[WKaliberr]

maybe they will pass Single Payer in his honor?

hope his death will be politicized and help liberals get the health proposal through

I know it sounds bad but its reality

[plddevries]

I'm sure Teddy, wherever he is, hopes so too.

[baddmanaz]

you do NOT paraphrase shakespeare.

you quote him or you don't.

[MaladaptiveCatalyst]

haha true

[sharinganclan213]

goodbye,

[wildwilly1111]

"...the work goes on, the cause endures, the hope still lives, and the dream shall never die." - Senator Eward M. Kennedy, 1932-2009

Well done, good and faithful servant...

[sailfished]

Scores of laws affecting millions of people . sad legacy

[oldtownkid]

Liberal ideas may look scary at the moment when they are proposed, but in time we always see that the liberal way is the way forward. Ted Kennedy's legacy benefits both liberal and conservatives today, from voting rights to 18 year olds to women's rights, to civil rights/equal rights, education, healthcare, children, and so on... In the midst of all the discouragement coming from weak progressive "leaders" I am reminded again by the life of Sen Edward Kennedy why I am a proud liberal.

[DjKelavey]

From the ghetto and black slums, SALUTE, never think all that you hav done goes unoticed! love @ RIP!

[SundaysCybele]

I'm curious as to how they are going to replace him in the senate.

[wildwilly1111]

Logistically, the MA House will vote to give the Governoro the ability to appoint a replacement, who will promise not to run for election, until January when a special election will be held.

Spiritually, morally and ideologically - he's irreplaceable.

[JamJells]

For you Ted. Single payer will overcome Fox News and CNN lies, and distortions.

[studio7manga]

I think the best part of his life is that he has inspired many more people to rise to his heights and ideals. We will see many more like him, thanks to the example he set.

[marniespeaks]

Pass a Single Payer Health Care Bill in his honor

[bobhardball]

There is only one way for the liberals to honor the memory of Ted Kennedy: Fix healthcare with or WITHOUT the support of my fellow Conservatives!

[ProfMTH]

Amen to that!

[1019drummer]

god bless you sen kennedy.

"THE TED KENNEDY HEALTHCARE REFORM BILL"

WHEN WE GET THIS BILL THROUGH PLEASE TITLE IT AS SUCH.

THANKS.

[ver506]

Oh Teddy....

[TheMadronas]

Let's hope not...

[JBeatty17]

RIP

[sirdaveysockrocker]

i hope every one of the right wing assholes remembers what they said here and when one of their family members or someone they care about dies, someone says the same fucked up shit to them and see they like it.

[Cheshirecatmeow1]

RIP Ted Kennedy.

[nuprincenj]

y is people hating on ted

[integral]

Because they lack brains, integrity, and heart.

That's about it.

Oh, and because they think Fox nooze is fair and balanced.

[taoofmichael]

Ted Kennedy was a proud liberal, as all liberals should be proud.

EVERY GOOD THING THAT HAS EVER BEEN ACCOMPLISHED IN AMERICAN GOVERNMENT HAS BEEN ACCOMPLISHED BY LIBERALS, OR THROUGH LIBERAL PRESSURE.

As we look back, with the benefit of hindsight, we see that liberals, like Ted Kennedy, were right about just about everything.

[baronmorris]

bc they are insufficient imbeciles.

The scope of what this man accomplished is AMAZING.

RIP

[CaramelAnt]

Because they were told to by their trainers.

[MelanieLouM]

Because he allowed a young woman to drown in his car and covered it up. >:(

[discountBush]

Q. Can a great man who is greatly flawed still be a great man?

A. There is no such thing as a great man who IS NOT greatly flawed.

[EmperorKagato]

They're unemployed idiots if they do. (He fought to raise minimum wage)

[someperson111]

Rest in Paradise

[baronmorris]

I'm with that. ;-)

RIP

[smithandrewj]

@mikejackson4ever That is a nasty comment

[KLNDR]

It's been a heavy day.

[baronmorris]

don't be sad bc it's over.

be glad... bc it happened.

RIP

[GreenEnergy2112]

Great words from President Carter

[OhioDemocrat]

I am truly saddened. A great American has passed. Rest in peace. Senator Ted Kennedy.

[keyfamily]

He was a truly great man. He will be missed.
