Don't expect to find the flag at my house flying at half-mast either.... it will be either all the way to the top or not flown at all.
Kennedy dead?

After listening to all the liberals sing their praise, Bill Bennett said something to the effect , 'That you should never say something bad about the dead', but 'You also shouldn't lie about them'.
Tell you what, I may have some things in my closet but a DEAD BODY isn't one of them.

'Ol Ted is dead
Never believed what he said
He got a deserved bad rap
Now he's takin' a dirt nap.
Don't mean to be wildish
I guess I'm just "childish"
Ted was a boozer
He was always a loser
Was a hypocrite to all
Never took the big fall
Now Mary Jo
Will finally know
Just tell St. Peter
You're a big Senate leader

His longevity as a Senator makes one question the intelligence ( or lack thereof ) of the people of Massachusetts. Never could figure out people being so dumb to elect him again, and again, and again. He was an embarassment to his family, his colleagues in the Senate, and the Americn people.

and now he must finally deal with mary jo
I agree with you except for the bit about being an embarrassment to his family - I don't think they embarrass so easily.
Can I guess? Can I? Can I? Does his handle start with an "s"?
Yeah, I'm glad he wasn't shot too; I'd have prefered he be done in with a golf cub about 40 years ago!

I have heard that to those who actually knew him, he was likeable, even to those in the U.S. Senate who strongly disagreed with him. His family certainly held him in high regard. However, I never met or worked with him. I'm not in his family. I have long disagreed with his political views. His family has my sympathy in their time of grief.

Yea, I bet both he and Bill Clinton would be great to get drunk and chase women with, but there really is more to life.
Good riddance to bad rubbish, as my kids used to say.
He did stand for what he believed in. Now while I disagreed with him on so many levels, I admire that he stood for his political beliefs. His personal life was very flawed without question but show me one that does not have some flaws.
I am sad that his life will be celebrated so by our liberal friends in the media, but I cannot change that.
I do wish they would concentrate on true heros that far deserve the attention more than the ones we see, but from their point of view they are celebrating their heros.

"As far as I'm concerned he does not belong in Arlington."
I understand that Arlington is rapidly running out of room.
Perhaps in an effort to save space, they can just screw Teddy into the dirt.
There are many more deserving folks who belong in Arlington's hallowed ground.

I disagreed with the man's politics, but it appears he truly represented his constituents' views on political issues, else he would have lost his seat many years ago.
Mass may just get more of the same when they vote to fill his empty seat.

Two words come to mind no matter the Senator or his party...
"Term limits"

There's lots of room at Arlington for old fat ted. When I toured there a couple of years ago there is a whole hillside that had but one grave on it. Yep, another Kennedy. So now there will be two graves on the hillside.

I heard that flags have been lowered to half staff at the White House, the Capitol, and bars all across Massachusetts and DC.

Well,
I had instructions to lower them on the three of my 4 buildings (one doesn't have a pole set) tonight. One of the three is a state entity tenant. I just hope to God it's for one of ours that bought it in the sand box? We're on the other coast from the Orca, so I see no reason to 1/2 staff for him here?

OK, Ted is dead.
I won't grieve for him.
Fact is, it won't matter much in the overall scheme of things.
I let you have a chance to vent. Most of the comments stayed pretty well within bounds, some did not, and got deleted or dinged.
How about we move on with life?
