Senator Kennedy has passed on

Sen. Ted Kennedy died shortly before midnight Tuesday at his home in Hyannis Port, Mass., at age 77.

The man known as the “liberal lion of the Senate” had fought a more than year-long battle with brain cancer, and according to his son had lived longer with the disease than his doctors expected him to.

May he rest in peace. But, liberals won’t let him

It’s time: The Senator Ted Kennedy Health Care Reform Bill

Health care for all citizens of the United States of America.

Including the poor, sick, disabled and even the republicans.

Time to rename Reagan International Airport (this DUer uses a Che Guevera icon)

In honor of the service that Ted Kennedy, along with his brothers Joe, John, and Robert, and sisters Eunice and Rose, it’s time we change the name of Reagan International Airport back to Kennedy International Airport. We should write our congresspeople and ask them to propose this change in honor of our greatest senator and his family who have done so much for all of us.

We should also propose similar changes to other monuments and highways, and honor a real American hero like Edward Kennedy

What could Congress do to honor Sen. Kennedy? Pass universal health care bill

I had hoped Senator Kennedy would live to see a health care reform bill signed. If Congress does pass a decent bill, I hope they name it after the Senator.

And Huffington Post writer Joseph Palermo uses the opportunity to trash government run health care opponents.

The issue of succession is already getting nasty, and the NY Times offers their views.

Anyhow, no matter what ones opinion of Ted Kennedy, he was an icon of American politics, and his passing should be treated with respect. There will be time later for consideration of his legacy. R.I.P.

And my own hope here is that his deep commitment to comprehensive health plan in our country will be honored by his contemporaries and his peers in the near future

Seriously, can’t they give it a few days before they use his death?
