McCain: Kennedy's Absence in Health Reform Debate "Huge"

Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) says that the absence of Sen. Edward Kennedy (D-MA) from the Senate floor is greatly felt in the ongoing health care reform debate.

"No person in that institution is indispensable, but Ted Kennedy comes as close to being indispensable as any individual I've ever known in the Senate because he had a unique way of sitting down with the parties at a table and making the right concessions, which really are the essence of successful negotiations," McCain tells George Stephanopoulos of the Senator, who is battling brain cancer. "So it's huge that he's absent, not only because of my personal affection for him, but because I think the health care reform might be in a very different place today."

[JotochX5]

That is so mean, and mean is UGLY!

[pojjnb]

thats funny how democrats and republicans both lie to us all day every day, yet you call out one side only. politicans are all assholes only worried about reelection and not real problems. whats it matter if oyu got a R or D next to your name when everything you say is lies.

[stoptherightwing]

Epic, I almost apologized to you for making the statement I did but in your response, you indicated if your name included atheist would that make me assume you would be Democrat or MSNBC? Wow, I think you said a lot about yourself and exactly why I made the point. The right wing, the GOP'ers, the Real American's who carry guns to Presidential events, those are the ones who scare the hell out of me! Sorry but belief in a myth is what I call weakness & becoming a real problem in our world.

[stoptherightwing]

Thanks, but NO THANKS!

[epicstyle28]

Stoptherightwing, really? Are you saying God Bless is code word for Republicans/foxnews, what does that mean if I had atheist in my name that would make you assume I'm a Democrat/MSNBC, this are both retarded assumptions. I would hope that all Dem, Repub, still believe + I'm a libertarian not some bible thumping person, but I believe in a god so it's said in good wishes.

But this shouldn't in any way be a distraction from the facts, which in this case in this case vital to this counrty.

who ever said she was pregnant

[arslp]

Wonder how the family of his dead and pregnant secretary felt when she was trapped in the car he was driving?

epic, I almost checked your link but when I saw "God Bless", that got me worried. We all know the link to Fox Noise, we don't need your mis-information too!
