Re: Sen. Ted Kennedy dead at 77
 

[quote=firstdown;582393]So did anybody sit down and watch the any of the funeral yesterday? I switched over to catch a few minutes of the game last night and the network had his funeral on so I figured the game coverage was going to be delayed. Then the news person said they were switching from Kennedy's funeral over to NFL football. It was actually knd of rude the way they went about switching over to football.[/quote]


It was good. As much as a funeral can be I guess. I think I was most touched by the hundreds of former and current staffers singing God Bless America on the steps of the Capitol.

Good thing they did not invite Obama's preacher to lead them off because then they would have sang "God Dam America". LOL

And so that was the entire conversation. Help us? Help us with what? Two sentences, end of interview?

I really expected Reid to say that Kennedy's death would hurt them and that Helth Care is dead when congress gets back to work. I cannot believe that he said that its going to help them and I'm stunned that a dem would take this stance for his party. That was a ground breaking interview and watch this reporter will win some awards for that interview.

I posted all of it...but honestly, do you even need to hear any more than that? There is no possible context where that could be a positive, admirable thing to say.

Luckily, this piece of trash Senator is going to get killed at the polls. His own state has woken up to his corruption and idiocy.

Yeah Reid is a gia t donkey. I think it was said somewhere else to the affect "Leave it to Harry Reid to say something relatively reasonable in the most controversial way possible"
